This debate from The European Parliament in Brussels asks: Is the European Union at a crossroads? Can it agree on how its £1 trillion should be spent? Who should be allowed to join? Why did voters throw out the idea of a European Constitution? In short, has the EU lost its way? Panellists include French Trade Minister Christine Lagarde, British EU advisor Roger Liddle, and Danish MEP Jens-Peter Bonde who believes the EU is too bureaucratic and needs reform.
