How is the EU as democratic as the UK when one country can scupper a trade deal.The EU is as democratic as the UK and when it comes to moralising, the rump of the British Empire is in no position to try to hold the moral high ground. The very sad truth is the brutality of the colonial powers only became an issue in world terms when they turned on each other.
The EU is a members club, its a walk in the park in comparison to how the UK came about never mind the British Empire. We had a referendum for more democracy and no one was interested, so we retained the antiquated first past the post and the unelected quasi German Saxe Coebergs, cos were British 'innit.
