linkIn the interests of "depoliticising" the news.  It also moved to enact legislation to increase its political control over the judiciary and the civil service. Good stuff - jut what we'd expect from a dictatorship.

Isn't that how democracy works, Snuggles? 'Parliament in Warsaw backed a resolution on Tuesday night calling for independence, objectivity and pluralism in public TV and radio.'  |

Obviously, but the EU Commission bribed the electorate to vote in a Tusk govt. And the first thing they do is then shut down the state broadcaster. I wonder what they'll do next.

It's quite simple. The EU Commission "held back" grants that Poland would have got if they had a government that they approved. They then made it known that this money (over 100 billion euros) would be delivered to Poland if they voted for "their man" Donald Tusk in the election. So they got Tusk elected and he's now setting about dismantling their state broadcaster and putting in a leftie liberal broadcaster. It won't stop here.
This is fairly obvious bribery and corruption to derail democracy. It's nothing new to the EU Commission of course. Only in 1999 Jacques Santer and all his useless commissioners were forced to resign for for bribery and corruption.

Poland, like every member state in receipt of EU funds, has to meet qualifying criteria. Those qualifying criteria have been pre-agreed. What a strange world you inhabit, Snuggles. When you hire someone to do a job, their right to payment is conditioned on their actually doing the job. Completion of the task is the qualifying criterion. If they don't do what they agreed to do, the qualifying condition hasn't been satisfied and no payment is due. Are you seriously asking us to believe that you would pay a tradesman for a job even if he completely failed to do that job? If the tradesman completes the job, your payment of him is not a bribe. It is a payment in consideration of his performance of a pre-agreed task. Only in twisted gammon world is that a bribe. |

The "qualifying criteria" do not include the content of the press or the kind of government they elect. Orban has lost some support because of his views on Russia but he remains popular for pushing back on the EU's attempt to foist muslim illegal immigrants on Poland. It's because of this that Poland remains one of the safest countries in the EU. This is a clear example of the EU Commission abusing its office to change a country's political direction.
The EU is a dictatorship pure and simple.

The EU is a dictatorship pure and simple. LOL!!!! The qualifying criteria are that Poland maintains a democracy and adheres to the rules of membership. Perfectly standard qualifying conditions for funds. I don't know a lot about the conditions on which Western countries, including the UK, grant aid to third world countries. But I'm confident that this aid is also conditioned on the governments of the aid-receiving countries adhering to basic democratic standards and observing human rights. If your gammon definition of ' a 'dictator' means that the UK is acting like a dictator, then so be it. It's not as if anyone other than another gammon is going to take you seriously. |

No, you obviously don't. The top 5 countries that the UK gives aid to are Pakistan, Ethiopia, Afghanistan, Yemen and Nigeria. A bunch of terrorists. |

Are you telling us that the payments aren't conditional? Really? |
