What a dreadful idea. If you're going to ceate an EU superstate, at least have direct elections of lawmakers (including initiation & schedule), a 2nd chamber and not a continuation of the horse trading with the EC that a 55% majority creates - theguardian.com/world/2018/sep…

I'd be quite happy to scrap the concept of UK, France, Germany, Greece et al and just have one identity in a democratic Europe. But this is not that, and in the abscence of moves towards greater democracy then I'll always vote #brexit.
