“Were we to agree to the central principle it would mean that the EU ceases to be an association of sovereign states and by fait accompli, the EU is transferred into a centrally governed European state where European institutions can force the so-called provinces to do as the central power wants. This is not what we agreed in the treaties. What is needed is a sovereign decision about sovereign decisions by sovereign member states. So now what we can do is we can agree to all attempts to limit the sovereignty of Poland and we can agree to the creeping expansion of the competences of the European court of law - what we are seeing now is a creeping revolution taking place by way of verdicts of the European court of justice - or we can say no. If you want a supranational state in Europe, why don't you ask and get consent from all the sovereign member states.”
