@bananawater

but don’t the low turnouts suggest that many EU citizens just aren’t that engaged in the idea of a single European polity?

Suggest to me that many people are disillusioned by the whole political process. To a lot of people I’d wager that they don’t see much point in voting when the end result will simply be “a politician” being voted in.
