Some might disagree Yes , from my experience the sole goes off eventually from Chrome Kursk SPD and Chrome Storm . <| sep |> Is he alive ? <| sep |> Polling shows Blair would make labour lose even harder than Corbyn would . <| sep |> well basically it is an oligarchy concealed as a democracy , run by a few individuals merkel , hollande , . who run the agenda , not saying they decide everything just that they make the agenda . Also i would expect from a democracy that every vote counts equally but in the EU it does not . Well i think it failed on the Greece debacle , the fact that merkel on her own decided that all refugees are welcome and now we all face the consequences , it has gotten so far that one of its major participants left . to an organisation that is undemocratic and has proven to fail in every crisis handed to it . might have been a bit over the top , but i think the EU is just a bad institution . Good intentions no doubt but badly executed , to nationalistic to work , no proper transnational communication system , .
