Beaurocrats [politicians are elected, beaurocrats are appointed] of European Commission, of which Juncker is a president, are not directly elected but nominated by the European Council (of which itself is semi-directly elected...) and then approved by the EU Circus that is a Parliament in Strasburg, which itself breaks many democratic rules*.

You forgot about the fact that most villagers have their own houses [no rent] and a piece of land which brings them their own food and/or additional income from selling raw products to markets.

@pawian since it costs nothing let's predict the future :-)

My prediction is: the higher the participation, the worse overall results for KE.

Just a few months ago there was no issue of KE scoring less than PiS in the EU elections and it was only argued how many more votes than PiS they will get. Now they're excited when both results are equal. And PiS is afraid that Konfederacja will take "their" votes from conservative voters.

Since there's EU circus in Strasburg has no real power, because decision are being made by [non-elected] European Council, those elections will serve mostly as a PR event before autumn elections in Poland.

And now let's wait and see.

Declarations and actions are two different things. But who knows, maybe they'll really storm voting stations like there's no tomorrow and we will see 100% turn out like in communist times? :-P

Meanwhile, I'd suggest that you would check and compare the statistics for the EU elections in Poland:

Year 2004 20,9%
Year 2009 24,53%
Year 2014 23,83%

With Parliamentary elections in Poland:

Year 2005 40,57%
Yeat 2007 53,88%
Year 2011 48,92%
Year 2015 50.92%

You are becoming melodramatic, @pawian Or is it just a pre-election paranoia? :-)

If fact, it is the left side which would like to gag any opposition and ostracize those who are not sharing their views.

Well, given it was true - and it's not, that would only mean that the current system is bad and it is alienating young and energetic males from contributing to Polish economy and society. But I understand that you only wanted to insult them [us] and not to look for a real answer.

I can clearly see that you are lost because instead of fighting with your imaginary enemies that are easy to dismiss and ridicule you have to face young eloquent people and very reasonable ideas and political solutions which they share.

It is easy to observe in public political debates a huge difference in knowledge and an intelectual potential between young national-conservatist politicians like Konrad Berkowicz, Slawomir Mentzen, Krzysztof Bosak and a young "elites" of the left.

35% of young Poles age 18-24 wants to vote for Konfederacja.

By far the most than for any other political party in Poland. 25% in a wider age group of 18-34. The future is bRight.

@Pawian, you switched you opinion quickly from: "Konfederacja doesn't have a chance to get into EU Parliament" to "I hope they will get at least 10%". Ach, the power of public opinion polls :-)

Obviously, the main purpose of the EU Circus elections is to flex muscles and to gain political popularity. The real power comes with autumn Parliamentary elections in Poland.

We don't know the results yet but let's speculate a bit.

PO will get more % of votes in the EU elec. than in the upcoming parliamentary elections. Partly because countryside PiS electorate doesn't care about the EU parliament elections at all, but they will mobilize for autumn elections.

Your hopes and calculations are quite far-fetched. If Konfederacja canibalise Kukiz 15 completely, PiS will have no other option that forming a coalition with Konfederacja who will gain expotential political power thanks to being the only political force that PiS could effectively cooperate with.

Basically PiS will have to grant a few important seats to Konfederacja leaders and agree to some "radical" (in their opinion) postulates such as deregulation of economy, laxing gun laws, much more independent foreign politics, tighter grip on immigration from outside of Europe and more..

Historically speaking Austria was penetrated by GRU and KGB residents to a level not seen in any other Western country and they were very passive and never expelled any of them. So I'm not very surprised by this turn of events.

I criticized Germany for many things and political decisions but I never questioned importance of free economic exchange between Poland and Germany. That's what our relations should be restricted too. When it comes to politics and social matters, Germany is a bad influence.

I thought that "liberals" were always pro-choice, was I mistaken? :-P

I repeat: "[taking] all the parts that works without any parts which aren't necessary for harmonic cooperation between nation-states of Europe. Those unnecessary penalties are leftist ideological distortions which are omnipresent in the EU." And not needed at all.

What most Poles want are the things which are [falsely] associated with the EU like Schengen zone free travel agreement, free trade which was started by European Economic Community and existed long before the EU was even created.

A work needs to be done to make Poles realise that.

News / Years of Poland in the EU - assessment of pros and cons [1146]

I think they were really clear about it during the last party congress in Warsaw. They want Poland out of socialist driven EU, yet there are two factions: one - which I support - wants to destroy the EU from within to eliminate the threat of ever expanding socialist federation and the other one want Polexit which is a half-measure in my opinion but still better than remaining in the EU.

We don't need the EU.

For free travel we only need Schengen zone which is independent from the EU structures.

And for free trade we only need single market ie. EEC as established in Treaties of Rome in 1957 long before the EU was even a dream [or rather a nightmare].

So you are supporting breaking the UE law by the man who should stand for them in the first place.

How do you expect regular people to care about them when even, so called, president of the EU doesn't obey them?

To me this is a sign that those laws are worthless. And the organisation which is based on worthless laws is equally worthless.

News / Poland blocks any action on climate change [569]


Actually Poland is a burning black coal which is much cleaner when it comes to gas emisions than brown coal burned in German powerplants. Brown coal produces a large amount of Sulfur Dioxide on top of large amount of CO2.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_carbon_dioxide_emissions

I know that facts are you enemies, Johnny, but please try to make friends with them.

That said, there shouldn't be any CO2 regulations and each country should decide for themselves. This is especially important for developing countries who wants to build their economies on industry which is the only proven way to move from a club of perpetually "developing countries" to"developed countries".

News / Poland blocks any action on climate change [569]

The climate change fraud serves 3 main purposes in my opinion:

1 To distract the, so called, public opinion from real political and economic problems. And to divert the energy of a young, energetic people who wants to "rebel" into those safe tracks of an irrelevant struggle.

2 To make some people, like politicians and some "scientists", very rich and famous

3 To hamper the growth of a developing economies by more developed economies. This weapon is used by a wealthier EU countries against fast developing Central Europe [CO2 emissions scheme]

Poor climate. Now it is never going to change because of Poland blocking it. Mean, mean Poland. Shame on you ;-)

I'm sorry but there's no serious discussion about "climate change". It's like discussing with those who believe that the Earth is flat.

A dumb argument "we stole your money but they are stealing even more now". So the defence goes: "we are thieves but they may be bigger thieves than us so we're clearly better".

If you don't want thieves and socialists [same thing actually] in a government vote for Konfederacja

News / Election marathon 2018-2020 in Poland [1071]


Great. So the political and social pressure makes sense. As long as this law gets written and properly enforced I'm content.

That said, we should still vote for Konfederacja so they could become a nationalist watchmen of a Government and make a constant political pressure from the Right side.
