 <title>Formally adopt the old USSR political role model</title>
 <link>http://www.european-citizens-consultations.eu/uk/proposal/2118</link>
 <description>Let&#039;s stop pussyfooting about and declare  what the true intentions are for our future superstate, let&#039;s not wait for the legalities to be settled.
For years the commission has been run like the old politburo, in secrecy and to its own agenda. Well, this has to stop. People have to understand the new realities, and calling a spade an implement of the people, is where it is all at.

 <title>Vrijwilligerswerk verdient Europese steun!</title>
 <link>http://www.european-citizens-consultations.eu/uk/proposal/2077</link>
 <description>Vrijwilligerswerk speelt een rol in de Europese economische en sociale ontwikkeling. In de Europese Unie engageren zich meer dan 100 miljoen mensen in het vrijwilligerswerk, en een groot deel van de bevolking stelt dat vrijwilligerswerk een deel van het democratisch en sociaal leven in de Europese Unie vormt (Speciale Eurobarometer “European Social Reality”, 2006).
Vrijwilligerswerk is een belangrijke economische factor, als men bedenkt dat het een aanzienlijke bijdrage levert tot het BNP van onze nationale economieën.

 <title>Improve European Democracy!</title>
 <link>http://www.european-citizens-consultations.eu/uk/proposal/2067</link>
 <description>The Citizens’ Initiative - first set out in the Constitutional Treaty - should be enacted immediatley to open a new channel for democratic participation in Europe and help to create the public realm the EU badly needs.
The Citizens&#039; Initiative stipulates that a petition with at least one million signatures obtained from a number of Member States may be sent to the Commission inviting it to take a legislative initiative, provided the latter is compatible with the EU&#039;s rules and principles.

 <title>A Clean Sweep</title>
 <link>http://www.european-citizens-consultations.eu/uk/proposal/2011</link>
 <description>A clean sweep of the UK-sponsored EU fraud and corruption, starting with the &#039;Objective 1&#039; frauds.
Before any substantive progress can be made, citizens must have confidence that the EU is the right organisation in which to place trust for the future. Currently, this trust can not placed, not least because of the massive EU-wide multi-million pound fraud and corruption and the failure to achieve an unqualified independent audit that is able to sign off the EU&#039;s books.
