  turns out building your supranational union on the basis of unanonimous votes for everything was a shit idea if you ever wanted to get anything done as that supranational union. Who’d’ve thunk it

  I guess you are only allowed to vote for as long as you vote for what/who you are told to vote for

    If everyone else votes the same except you, then your opinion IS less valuable.

    If you keep doing that over and over on important issues just to blockade everything, others will get annoyed with you. Especially if you play into the hands of imperialist countries like Russia.

    Every democracy in the world works on the basis of majority votes, not unanimous. Why should the UE be different?

  Finally. I hope this will be more than just a intent or “threat”

  Whats the point of voting something if you can only vote what someone else wants?

    What’s the point of voting if one vote can completely invalidate the massive majoritys vote?

  Hungary should be stripped of its right of EU membership alongside its voting right by not complying to is obligation as an ICC member
