- verisimi 7mo agoOh, if unelected officials is the standard, that's fine then. Move along.

- andrepd 7mo agoNo, but I vote for the Prime Minister. I don't vote for the European Commissioner or the President of the Council. What's idiotic is presenting these are the same.
- 3836293648 7mo agoYou don't vote for Prime Minister. Either Parliament votes for a Prime Minister or your country messed up the translation of President.
- andrepd 7mo agoYou don't de jure vote for a Prime Minister but you de facto do so. Please, don't pretend to be obtuse.
- 3836293648 7mo agoI pay just as much attention to the prime ministerial candidate as the Commission presidential candidate. Both are blatantly obvious per party. If what you really mean is that you don't follow EU level politics, just say so.
- lynx97 7mo agoThe one who uses foul language and personal attacks is the one who always loose. Even if they don't see it themselves, others do notice.
- qwytw 7mo agoGenerally a lot of people do vote for the PM i.e. chose the party to vote for based on it's leader(s)
- baxtr 7mo agoWait but the commission is assembled by the PMs / presidents… so it’s elected by people who were elected by people who elect.
