Slovakia is unique in that 82% of its drinking water comes from underground sources. This water is of high quality and clean. It does not require as complicated treatment as surface water. However, we have a problem with enormous losses in the network, with up to 30% of water disappearing through leaky pipes. Another shocking figure is that more than 400 municipalities are not connected to the water supply. The situation is even worse with sewage. Only 71% of residents are connected to sewage systems. In comparison, in the Czech Republic, it is 87%. I am interested in this topic because I live in a city where large parts are not connected to the water supply and sewage. This year, many of my neighbors were left without water. No one offered them a helping hand. They had to cope with this problem on their own. We are a country in the most developed part of the world, and yet there are people living here without access to drinking water and without state support for its provision. Is there anyone who is addressing this issue? I would like to learn more about this topic. (translated)

Ivan Bartoš was asked by Půra whether he criticizes the Pirates for the payments to councilors, which he believes are also received by politicians from other parties. He also reminded that some Pirates had worked for the party for ten years in civilian jobs before being elected, and that some earned more in their civilian jobs than in politics. Bartoš stated that the Pirate campaigns are not sponsored by people connected to China and Russia, Czech mafia, or fossil oligarchs. He also criticized Půra and DataRun for being paid to set the agenda, and labeled his interest as curable. Půra was also referred to as a "hybrid journalist." He added that it was fundraising for a transparent account intended for professional work and its marketing. According to Bartoš, Půr could have simply said that they should not count on him. #politika #Piráti #transparency (translated)
