It changed the game and made each member state subservient to the European Commission which has the absolute whip hand over the candidly pathetic European Parliament, a paper tiger if ever there was.

But I'm still trying to work out the link to marxism.

In terms of the protests most remain voters have nothing in common with Marxists. There are likely to be just as many marxists against the EU as may want to seize control of it. Once you have any form of political and economic unity various extreme factions will want to control it. The EU will be more vulnerable to this because it has so much democracy rather than so little.

Interesting how they seem to uber organised with lots of very professionally printed placards (although also many homemade crappy ones).
Almost as if some unseen group is funding these people to protest and had it all planned in advance. . . .
