My questions exactly. I thought the EU was a pretty decent setup. What are the freedoms lost? |
If i had to guess...
I'd guess it has to do with the Commision of Europeon Communities being reduced in size so that no longer would at least one person from each country be elected to it.
So... for like 5 years out of every 15 you wouldn't have a say in that particular commision.
Either that or it's the fact that Ireland was the only country actually allowed a referendum on it.
I also believe it would allow the EU government a bit more power over the member states governments.
There will also be an EU foreign Minister, which will be pretty crazy.
Basically it's a step closer to the EU being a country instead of a loose alliance of states.
