> They didn't implement this shit.

Without the EU council - the assembly of the countries - saying yes there's no new law in the EU. Therefore, saying they didn't implement this shit is wrong. If they didn't want to, they could have stopped it. They also still can stop it if they want to. The vote of the parliament is not the last step. The council has to agree.

Apart from that most of the legislation that the commission initiates is done because the EU council asked the commission for it. So, the countries asked for this in the first place.




Sure, and those other governments just fell on the wrong button. Complete distortion of the current political landscape.

edit: ... and legislative process.
