Nigel Farage told Juncker: “I don’t think that the
European public or commentators understand what the European Commission really
is. The Commission is the executive, it is the Government of Europe and it has
the sole right to propose legislation. It does so in consultation with 3,000
secret committees staffed mainly by big business and big capital and all the
legislation is proposed in secret.”
“Once something becomes a European law, it is the
European Commission themselves who have the sole right to propose repeal or
change of that legislation.”
