Who is in the Council? You are saying "nuh-uh", but not addressing any of the substance of my comment.

The Council represents state governments, not nations. A nation consists of all the people in it, not just those who appointed themselves to speak on its behalf.

Either way, your issue is with national governments and not the EU, which curbs their excesses.
