Europe has developed a pretty interesting definition of “protecting democracy.”

🇷🇴 Romania annulled a presidential election after Călin Georgescu finished first, then barred him from the rerun.

🇭🇺 Hungary’s new government rewrote the constitution with retroactive limits that block Viktor Orbán from becoming PM again and later approved rules barring long-serving MPs from the next parliamentary election.

🇩🇪 Germany’s domestic intelligence service classified the AfD as extremist, opening the door to much heavier surveillance of the country’s biggest opposition party.

🇫🇷 France upheld Marine Le Pen’s conviction, kept restrictions on her political future and ordered her to wear an electronic ankle tag.

🇪🇸 In Spain, more than a dozen people tied to Pedro Sánchez’s political and personal circle have been investigated or prosecuted in separate corruption cases, while Sánchez himself has not been charged.

🇬🇧 Britain postponed local elections during a sweeping reorganization of local government, triggering a petition accusing the government of voter suppression.

🇵🇱 And now Poland has police surrounding its Constitutional Tribunal while the government and opposition accuse each other of trying to seize control of the court.

The real red line in Europe may not be democracy... It may be leaving the club.

The situation in Poland is very serious.

Arrests and a raid on the constitutional court - all to defend the undemocratic EU.

I'm starting to think the Eurocrats don't actually care about democracy, guys.

[westcoast @Simsg01]

@MarkJCarney No thanks

[Michelle Rempel Garner @MichelleRempel]

Corporations looking for more temporary foriegn workers can afford to hire lobbyists to advocate on their behalf at Parliamentary Committees.

Unemployed youth can't.

Glad to see Conservatives like @grantjacksonMP fight on their behalf. ⬇️

@dougcraig3 I guess the NDP didn’t really inspire the electorate- wonder why?

[westcoast @Simsg01]

@Mattxduchak Nope

[westcoast @Simsg01]

@nopenotnathan Genocide is definitely a value - probably not a good one though, but a time honored lefty tradition.

[westcoast @Simsg01]

@MarkKersten No need to worry - looks like it’s all about to get fixed - fingers crossed anyway - cheers!
