They are elected, but he refuses to understand the basic workings of the EU. He and many anti-EU people tend to think that the EU commission is some sort of unelected government when in fact they are nothing more than office managers implementing the elected officials wishes.

And the UK should not be talking too much about "democracy and unelected officials".... when half of its legislative body is unelected and the sitting government got power on 30% of the vote.

Not to mention the UK Monarchy, but that is quite literally another thread.

I see, and so what? A majority of British voters.. hell no British voters ever, voted for or against NATO or the UN membership.

As for the treaty of Rome we both know that has been updated, changed over the years. We also didnt vote on the Maastricht treaty, Lisbon treaty etc.

And you are wrong. The Treaty of Rome has never been updated nor changed over the years. We have added to it via Maastricht, Lisbon and so on, but the fundamental core of the EU/EEC aka the Treaty of Rome has not been changed.
