Some people say:
- The European Commission makes the laws but none of the Commissioners is elected.
- Most of our laws are made in Brussels and we have little say in them.
- EU laws take precedence over national laws the European Court of Justice decides in the case of dispute.
- Brussels makes lots of stupid laws such as whether Women’s Institutes can re-use jam jars.
Not quite. Let’s check the facts.
