Seriously, how flawed is the design of the EU's political institutions?
- No constitution right from the beginning.
- Executive can overrule legislative (and even judicative?)
- Legislative can hold up executive meetings (??)
- zurn 14y ago- The EU is a international treaty whose signatories are sovereign nations. They can't really have a constitution in the same role as a nation state. - No, commission can't overrule the EP. The parliament can reject commission-proposed legislation, and it can fire the commission. edit: see the parliament doing its thing against ACTA here: http://www.rt.com/news/acta-committee-final-vote-365/ http://www.rt.com/news/acta-committee-final-vote-365/
