Rule of law in the European Union
In the European Union we are to be ruled by a few thousand unelected, unaccountable officials who largely appoint each other, cannot be sacked, and habitually meet in secret. All EU politicians and officials have a lifetime guarantee of immunity from prosecution in connection with their duties, and are presided over by a Supreme Court endowed with the power to suspend the rule of law, effectively at will. Thus, since the law cannot be known with fair certainty in advance, the EU is technically a lawless state within Europe.
