- chgs 2y agoThe price of freedom is eternal vigilance Ultimatly the popular Parliament and the government council can block it, and the leaders of each member government can of course nominate commissioners who do not wish such laws passed The reality is that democracy if governments want this type of law - hell large numbers of the people do. It’s the problem with democracy. Certain interests dont like the EU as it’s harder to manipulate than a typical national government and people.
