They setup the EP (European Parliament) to give us the illusion of democracy but the EP is just a Goebbels piece, theater. The MEP (elected members of parliament) are toothless.
Good consequence of this is that they are more reachable than any other sort of politician in Europe, except for city governments, but that of course will change if they actually get any teeth.
If they manage to pass anything at all it only happens because the big heads do not understand the issue and once they do it will get reverted or annulled.
However as it stands the EU has huge issues with lack of democracy, lack of accountability, and lack of transparency. And it is not looking good in that department.
