They don't *make* much policy, they agree it. And they are elected
because they are ministers from the member states.

Are they? I don't remember anyone voting for Junker.

Bzzt - he's the President of the Commission, nothing to do with the
council of ministers.

Do tell us when this election was held, I must have missed it.

15th July 2014, he was elected by MEPs. Representative democracy.
