Re: European elections: 33% turnout predicted (none / 1)
In Spain it is the King who appoints the PM, in France the PM is appointed by the President and then the whole government is confirmed by the parliament... In the UK, the PM is appointed by the queen...

The power to accept or not a nomination, which the EP has if I'm not mistaken, is a power to appoint in effect. If the EP chooses to take that power.
