Europeans United for Democracy (EUD) is European eurosceptic alliance formally recognised by the EU-parliament under Regulation (EC) No 2004/2003.. We work for increased transparency, accountability, subsidiarity, and most importantly budget control within the European Union. The EUD does not take a position on left-right policy issues, believing that these issues should be decided in national par
liaments. Our core values, represented in the four petals of the EUD flower, are:
Transparency ⇒ The EUD works to ensure that legislation, decisions, meetings and budgets are made available to EU citizens in a simple and accessible format, and that EU decisions are free of arbitrary interests that favour a select few. Subsidiarity ⇒ The EUD aims for EU institutions and legislation to operate under the principle of subsidiarity. Decisions must be made and carried out at the lowest possible level in every community. Democracy ⇒ The EUD strives to improve democratic accountability. Our role as a European political party is to reduce the gap between the European institutions and the citizens. Policy making needs to reflect the will of the people, and the powers that create it must be dispersed into several elected institutional bodies. Diversity ⇒ The EUD asserts that Member States must be free to implement policies in their own, most appropriate ways and that the peoples of Europe must not be subject to aggressive harmonization
