Yes this is bad. They tried this before and it got turned down before.
In 1993 they "forced" the
Maastrict-treaty upon us, both Denmark and France voted against
it. The Danish was cheated with false promises in a 2nd election a year later (Atleast Denmark got 4 exceptionrules in the treaty, these are Single
Currency, "forced" Joint Defence, Judiciary Cooperation and European Citizenship). France dident get a second chance and the french poleticians
accepted the treaty without the public support.
In 2004 they introduced the EURO. Denmark, Sweden and the UK said we dont want that. But our curracy's are curently bound to the EURO.
Also 2004 10 new countries been allowed acces in the union, these countries in general is cheaper that, the original coremembers.
In 2005 France and the Dutch vote against the
Lissabon treaty. This put the project on a
stall for a few years, but in 2009 a repost/rewritten Lisabontreaty is ratified in the union, whitout askeing the people in most of the countries.
I guess you could expand the list alot if You want to. The problem about this is it seams like they will do anything to keep the wheels rolling and
ignore the voice of the people.
The european union got no idea on how to regulate and make reasonable guidelines for the nations to work within. Instead they tryed to enforce use
with alot of stupid regulation, like when they wanted to control how the curve on cucumber's.
Rules governing the size and shape of fruit and vegetables will be consigned to history after European Union Member States today (12/11-2008)
voted on Commission proposals to repeal specific marketing standards for 26 types of fruit and
vegetables.Source
