Question

Do you ever despair of the EU? Don't lots of people who deal with the Commission and Parliament over time seem to become a bit jaded and disillusioned with the bureaucracy and petty protection of national interests

Answer

Do I despair of the EU? I despair of the lack of accountability and transparency and the unwillingness by the political elites to be straight with the public as to where power now lies.
