The EU is being run by corporate power at the expensive of its citzens

The establishment of the European Economic Community (later the European Union), in 1957, was an extraordinary achievement.

Repairing the wounds of two world wars that had devastated Europe, it created co-operation between formerly hostile states, leading to decades of peace and prosperity, social and political stability and the unprecedented mingling of cultures and populations.

Since 1973, Ireland has reaped enormous benefits, financially, economically and socially, from EEC/EU membership.
