European Union



European Union is an economic and political union of 28 countries, having grown from its original 12 by the accession of new member states, gaining power by the addition of policy areas to its remit.

The EU has developed a single market through a standardised system of laws which apply in all member states. Within the Schengen Area (which includes EU and non-EU states) passport controls have been abolished. EU policies aim (or, to critics, claim) to ensure the free movement of people, goods, services, and capital, enact legislation in justice and home affairs, and maintain common policies on trade, agriculture, fisheries and regional development.

Ghost frequently refers to the European Union as a "failed Socialist experiment". Ghost often covered economic crises suffered by their member states, such as in Greece and Portugal.

Ghost also covered the migrant influx from the Middle East when his shows resumed in 2016. Ghost vehemently supports Brexit and praises any politician in support of it, and was overjoyed when it succeeded in June 2016, stating it was a blow against international bureaucracy. As of 2018, Ghost seems to believe that much of the eurozone, with a few exceptions like Poland and Hungary, is a lost cause at this point because they have embraced political correctness, feminism and Islamic migrants to the point of no return.
