Have a look at the EU government in Brussels sometime. Their legislative executive (not a typo) is the Commission, consisting of all unelected bureaucrats that swear an oath of loyalty to the EU, and have the power to both write and pass laws. The EU’s parliament, although elected, cannot write a single law, but just votes up or down on what the Commission feeds them (i.e. it’s a rubber stamp “toy parliament”). No separation of powers there.
True enough. And all those bureaucrats and apparatchiks in Brussels are on six figure tax free incomes living in a city noted for its (by European standards) large and comfortable housing and excellent cuisine. At the bottom line, this is not much different than the reaction of a past generation of freedom loving Englishmen to being governed by a condescending elite over whom they held no influence or power. Farage was right. Yesterday was Britain’s equivalent to our July 4, 1776 and I’ll be thinking of our cousins on Monday.
