'Two Minutes of Bitter Truth': Polish MEP Slams Corrupted European Parliament (Video)

Two minutes of truth, bitter truth, Polish Member of the European Parliament, Professor Ryszard Legutko, began his speech in the European Parliament. “The bitter truth is that European Parliament has done a lot of damage in Europe.”

It claims to represent the European people. However, most European people do not support it, said the MEP.

Political Vehicle

The Parliament infected Europe with shameless partisanship, and the infection became so contagious that it spread to other institutions, such as the European Commission. As a result, the Parliament has abandoned the primary function of representing the people. Instead, it has become a machine to implement the so-called European project, thus alienating millions of voters, said Legutko.

The Parliament has become a political vehicle of the left to impose their monopoly with their fierce intolerance towards any dissenting view. No matter how often you repeat the word diversity, diversity is becoming an extinct species in the European Union, particularly in this chamber.

‘Tip of the iceberg.’

The Parliament is a quasi-parliament because it rejects the essential principle of parliamentarism, namely accountability. The deputy, let me remind you, is elected by the voters and must be accountable to the voters that elected him, but not so in the European Union. Therefore, it is preposterous, explains Legutko, that EU Parliament deputies can dictate policy to countries for which they are not citizens and have not been elected by voters and, therefore, cannot be held accountable.

Call it what you will but democracy it is not, stressed Legutko. He summarized: Parliament works for the project that ignores reality and justice, shuns responsibility, turns its back on millions of people, and serves the interests of one political orientation. “And this is just the tip of the iceberg. Having said that, ladies and gentlemen, I rest my case.”
