I suggest you do some basic research before spewing misinformation like this next time. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elections_to_the_European_Pa...

Those were two separate comments, no need for accusations like that. I'm well aware that the EU has elections, but anyone can see that member states are losing their sovereignty as time goes on.
(sorry, I was being too harsh)

In what areas specifically are they losing their sovereignty though?

The legitimate arguments for Brexit are a partial answer to your question.
Look how well that turned out for them.
Brexit populism was mostly based on lies. Remember the NHS bus about how much money they're allegedly sending to Brussels? Disinformation galore.
