I mean it's like your saying because there's no Tory or Labour parties in the EU parliament that it makes the EU fatally flawed somehow.
Finally you're getting it. It is fatally flawed. We can't have regular elections to hold them to account. No party can ever gain a majority. So it is always a coalition formed without negotiation. Coalitions are iffy at the best of times, the Lib Dems got into a share of power despite being only the third largest party, but that was the best solution we had at the time. I was an acceptable compromise to avoid another election or hung parliament. The EU "coalition" isn't formed by two parties attempting to form a majority, it's god knows how many parties forced into a coalition, with no party having any control over policy. Thus, policy is dictated behind closed doors by heads of state, with some heads of state having more influence than others, based on economic strength.
