Re: But what about Brexit ?
In essence, we the UK people directly elected the UK MEP's who helped create the EU laws we accepted.
Well, no. The MEPs get to talk about the laws over lunch, but they only get to vote on the rules that the (unelected) European Commission presents to them. The Commission has the power, the Parliament is just an expensive talking shop. Which is why turnout in European elections is so pitifully low almost everywhere in the EU.
