  2. Because MEP's cannot propose legislation that represents their citizens. Legislation is generated on the orders of the council who swear allegiance to the EU. MEP's only have the power to rubber stamp what they are given.

  3. Ok let's say you as a citizen want taxes lowered. You ask your MP and your MP asks parliament on your behalf. In the EU you ask your MEP and that's all you can do. He can't ask the European parliament on your behalf.

  4. Why does any country need political participation above the national level? The only reason to have it is if you don't have a sovereign country.

  5. It's only democracy if ideas go up the hierarchy
