Poland to be fined €1 million daily by EU for not suspending controversial 'disciplinary chamber'

VRT is fine, other countries have similar taxes. Denmark for example.

It is in no way comparable to the above.

"Noone will miss them"

I do not know who this "noone" individual is you are speaking of. But I would certainly miss Poland, as they are smart hard working and decent people from my experience.

I am not anti-EU either btw. You seem quite fond of making large sweeping assumptions of people around here.

I think the EU is an imperfect union. It is in need of massive reforms in order to be a viable entity going forward. Brexit should have been a big moment for introspection for the rest of us in this union. But instead many people buried their heads in the sand, and are just content to paint the UK as this horrible backward racist country.

You can see the same tired rhetoric developing with Poland and Hungary too. Anyone who steps out of line, or dares to see the world in a slightly different way is painted as being some sort of nuisance.

Can you see the contradiction?😂

Ah don't mind this kind of pigeonholing and name calling anything that contradicts their worldview; anyone that expresses anything that discomforts them is guilty of heresy and must be punished whether it's an individual or in this case a country or countries. Such illiberal behaviour, ironically from those who believe that they are truly liberal.

The EU lost a lot of standing when the French and then the Dutch rejected attempts to foist an EU constitution on them, as most people there were perfectly happy with the way things were, something that the mandarins in Brussels and Strasbourg didn't foresee. So they came up with the Lisbon treaty to try and introduce it in a slightly different way but that came with unintended consequences like Brexit. The same mandarins and their followers don't want any opposition or any criticism at all. What will their followers here do if or when the EU says that there should be one immigration policy in all states so Ireland would have to follow EU rules and stop their de facto open borders policy?

Poland and Hungary are next in the firing line and that's perfectly fine with some on here.

More countries will be considering leaving or starting rows for a very fundamental and simple reason - sovereignty.

The EU as an entity is now firmly clashing with the sovereignty of the countries in it.

This is a dangerous thing particularly in a European context but it's been coming for 20 years. More Europe, more Europe, more Europe...

Either there is real reappraisal of what the EU is and should be (a trading block without the political institutions and symbols) or it will all end in tears sooner or later.

That is not the job of the EU. It is up to Poland and Poland alone to decide who and how they are governed as with every other country.

Your post demonstrates perfectly the problem with EU supporters. They don't understand how offensive and undemocratic they actually are.

It is not up to Brussels to decide how any country should be governed or what's good for them.
