well, the EU can issue regulations which are immediately enforceable “as law” in member states.
So...it is accurate that some things that have the force of law are actually imposed upon the people of Europe by unelected bureaucrats.
Actually, they aren’t. When people talk about “the unelected bureaucrats of Brussels”, they usually mean the European commission. The commission is an organisation like no other: more than a civil service but less than a government. Composed of 28 commissioners – one from each country – the commission drafts, enforces and monitors EU laws. But it does not pass laws.
