If this (as I read it thus far) flagrant abuse of democracy gets any further, maybe the money raised should be used to bring legal action against the presidency of the Commission.
Here in Britain, a volunteer organisation (The Countryside Alliance) brought a lawsuit against the government for passing a bill to outlaw foxhunting without consulting the House of Lords (our second chamber). The Countryside Alliance lost, but the situation was somewhat more complex, and the government was found not to be in breach of constitutional law.
However, if a lawsuit can be brought against the government of Britain, why not the presidency of the of the European Commission?
