The EU aren't scared of laying out what they believe, it's the institutionally pro EU BBC that deliberately doesn't report the truth

Jean-Claude Juncker is the poster boy for EU arrogance and authoritarianism:

On Greece's economic meltdown in 2011
"When it becomes serious, you have to lie."

On EU monetary policy
"I'm ready to be insulted as being insufficiently democratic, but I want to be serious … I am for secret, dark debates"

On British calls for a referendum over the Lisbon Treaty
"Of course there will be transfers of sovereignty. But would I be intelligent to draw the attention of public opinion to this fact?,"

On the French referendum over the EU constitution
"If it's a Yes, we will say 'on we go', and if it's a No we will say 'we continue',"

On the introduction of the euro
"We decide on something, leave it lying around, and wait and see what happens. If no one kicks up a fuss, because most people don't understand what has been decided, we continue step by step until there is no turning back."

"There can be no democratic choice against the European treaties"

I honestly don't know why you are in the least bit surprised by this. It is not only Al Beeb that is like this - it's the entire British Establishment. Never, never will they be as open as the rabid Europhiles across the Channel, because they know it will sound the death knell for them. As proven by Brexit, the British do not want to be a part of the EU. Please note, I said the EU, and not Europe. which is a completely different animal.
