What they have learned from Orbán is to prevent any one country going rogue or acting as a 5th column to the detriment of the whole. The principle of unanimity is fine as long as everyone is on the same wavelength. This was always going to be a weak link in the EU project, and it won’t be the last.
Their biggest flaw is that they have their heads turned far too easily. Specifically by unidentified “lobbyists” with no commitment whatever to the European ideal. #DigitalID
But we can (and need to) mitigate the impact of countries acting in other interests. That is most easily achieved by getting rid of the unanimity principle. Why just accept a weaknes that could be cured without much hassle and side effects?
Nah, just abolish the unanimity principle. It has been abused before and it will be abused in the future.

And what does a digital ID has to do with this?
