We need to find the antidote to the temptation of "Kirchturmpolitik"!

(For non German speakers: The only things that matter are the ones I can see from the top window of my church tower. And I can fix these best myself)

Here the federalisation of rhe EU and the subsidiarity principle come into play. Because a lot of things rhat matter to people can be done better at the l

But finding the right balance between centralisation and decentralisation is a process never to be completed. These terms have to be continuously renegotiated.
