Davide wrote to Ultimora that he felt sad about the comments from those who defended a billion increases in salaries for a privileged lobby, whose members, according to him, already earned more than the average Italian. He added that those people were completely absorbed by the propaganda against the government, even when Giorgia Meloni, in his opinion, implemented leftist policies. #politica #italia #giustizia (translated)

Kacper Kita wrote that in the Polish debate and practice of the state, the issue of migration is, in his opinion, reduced to illegal immigration, the migration pact, and the European Union, while the government justifies bringing in workers by the needs of the economy. He argued that almost every week, sponsored articles highlighting the importance of immigration for companies are published, and lobbyists are putting pressure on the authorities. He assessed that Poland is following in the footsteps of France. #imigracja #gospodarka #Polska (translated)

Grzegorz Płaczek wrote that the Ministry of Health planned to introduce mandatory HPV vaccinations for children in Poland starting from 2027, despite opposition. He stated that on September 30, 2026, the Commission for the Codification of Criminal Law proposed raising the maximum fine for evading mandatory vaccinations from 1500 to 9000 PLN. Płaczek also indicated that governors could impose administrative fines on parents of up to 10,000 PLN at once and up to 50,000 PLN in total, regardless of any misdemeanor proceedings. According to him, the money could be deducted from accounts before the dispute with the state is resolved, and proceedings in administrative courts could last four years or longer. The author claimed that a similar system would apply to HPV vaccinations. He wrote that outside of North Macedonia, they are only recommended worldwide, and prevention should be based on information and informed decisions made by parents, not on financial sanctions. He advocated for the voluntary nature of HPV vaccinations and criticized the actions of the state. #szczepienia #zdrowie #prawo (translated)

The Stock Market Information criticized the bottle return system, stating that on average, 22 bottles are returned at a time, and collecting them, traveling to the bottle return machine, and waiting in line takes a total of 11 minutes. According to the author's calculations, a ton of one-liter bottles is 40 thousand pieces, so their return requires the time of 1,820 people. Altogether, they would spend 20 thousand minutes, which is equivalent to 13 days of life. Previously, as the author wrote, bottles ended up in yellow containers. The Stock Market Information cited data from the Ministry, according to which Poles consume 3 billion bottles annually. Based on this, the author calculated that it corresponds to 75 thousand tons and means nearly a million days dedicated to reclaiming deposits. He described the socio-economic costs as astronomical and criticized the system for taking away time meant for rest, family, friends, and sleep. He blamed several lobbyists for this situation. #recykling #ochronasrodowiska #życie (translated)

Maria Karystianou criticized Adonis Georgiadis, saying that, in her opinion, he had shifted the public discussion from the issue of transparency to ideological confrontations and attacks on those who hold power. She argued that the participation of Greek ministers and MPs in meetings with foreign lobbying groups in a private club was not a private matter and that politicians were held accountable daily, not just in elections. Karystianou stated that the journalistic record of the participants in such meetings did not constitute intimidation, but rather was part of press freedom. She added that foreign policy and the defense of national interests should, in her view, be conducted institutionally, with transparency and respect for international law. In the postscript to her statement, she referred to public statements by Georgiadis and Maria Pagoni regarding a bioresonance machine, which, as she wrote, had a European CE marking and had not been previously verified. She also mentioned that she had information about leaks from the ministry concerning her alleged participation in a company that conducted chemotherapy without a license. She claimed that she only operated her own clinic, accused the minister of targeting her, and stated that he would lose. #Διαφάνεια #Δημοκρατία #Ελευθεροτυπία (translated)

Rodrigo Lara reported that he had filed a reform against the so-called "mermelada," which he described as the assignment of regional projects without transparency about who requested them, why they were approved, or what was obtained in return. The author argued that congress members should be able to manage investments for their regions, but proposed that each project they presented be recorded in a public registry. He also suggested distinguishing between conflicts of interest: one, he said, would occur when the congress member, their family, or their partners received a particular benefit; another would correspond to the public representation of the legitimate interests of a region or sector. Lara noted that congress members should transparently declare their ties with sectors that financed their campaigns and stated that the reform would allow for the regulation of lobbying in Colombia. He added that, in his view, the lack of a law on the matter was due to congress members' fear of losing their position for listening to and processing sectoral interests. He also maintained that under the current government, everything was done openly and called for all management to be declared and made known. #LeyAntiMermelada #Reforma #Transparencia #Desarrollo (translated)

The author wrote that the market for internal combustion engines is dying very quickly in China and will also collapse in Europe. He described the fight among lobbyists as an own goal. In his opinion, an early and clear end date for the combustion engine would have provided German manufacturers with planning safety and incentives. https://t.co/W6mYknAp4d #Energiewende #Umweltschutz #Automobilindustrie #CN #DE #EU (translated)

Sabrina F. accused the European leadership, particularly Ursula von der Leyen, of wanting to drag citizens into war while leaders and their families would be safe. She claimed that calls for rearmament and war were meant to cover up the failures of European policies, citing factory closures, rising utility bills, and deindustrialization, which she attributed to sanctions. According to Sabrina F., the ReArm Europe plan would have mobilized 800 billion euros, benefiting arms lobbies and French and German industrialists. She also accused European leaders of wanting to maintain power by fueling fear of an external enemy and referred to Pfizergate, claiming that messages with pharmaceutical companies had been deleted and that there were conflicts of interest. She stated that decisions affecting 450 million people would be made without a vote or referendum and criticized commitments of 90 billion in favor of Zelensky, arguing that they would be funded with public money. She concluded by saying that von der Leyen did not speak on her or Italy's behalf and that she wanted peace. #Pace #Guerra #Bruxelles (translated)
