First part of a question for a Commissioner designate by the EU Parliament.
Protection of the rights of citizens is at the heart of our democratic system
based on the rule of law. The Charter of Fundamental Rights
incorporated into the Constitutional Treaty and the European legal
system provides citizens with additional protection, even against their own
Member State.
Supposing our member state government decided to leave the Union, would not the EU feel obliged to protect our rights and force the government to reconsider their action?
