The Incontinent Continent tries to show how the EU has allowed politicians to create a separate world where instead of serving their constituents, they serve each other. With their prime allegiance to Brussels, they are both unwilling and unable to speak up for those whom they are supposed to represent and concentrate their efforts on what is beneficial for Brussels at the expense of their own people. The book lays out the development of each aspect of the EU in an easily understandable manner and should appeal to those who would like to make sense of all the palaver about the European Union.
