Personal Remarks
The European Commission is creating too many rules. Most EU citizens do not see these regulations as something that improves their daily lives. On the contrary, many feel they add complexity and distance institutions further from ordinary people.
The Frans Timmermans scandal made it clear that the European Commission was financing NGOs to promote its own agenda. What kind of propaganda is this?
The European Commission has many talented people working within its institutions, but it often fails to be streetwise. Too much thinking remains theoretical, while there is a growing sense of disconnection from the realities and concerns of citizens.
