Thank you in advance.
Undemocratic in that, firstly, the Commission are appointed not elected and the people have no say. Secondly, the EU Parliament is mostly pro EU (thanks to the gravy train of fancy cars, expenses, cheap goods and fancy hotels) and whatever they vote for can be over ruled by the Commission anyway if its not what they want.
the EU Commission is also single party politics. There is no opposition and no chance for the member states to vote out anyone from the commission.
Look at how Ursula Von Der Leyen got the job - she wasn't even on the ballot, and Junker was the only person that could be voted for by the commission as the leader.
There is no democracy in the EU. The Parliament is a shop front to make it look that way, in reality it serves no purpose when there wishes (from the countries) mean nothing if the unelected commission decide otherwise.
