Marek Stoniš asked whether the Pirate Party should rather return money to people. He cited as reasons the damages amounting to tens of billions of crowns that, according to him, were caused by the digitization of the building process, and the time and money that, according to him, Prague residents were losing in the traffic-collapsed metropolis. He also criticized the expenditures on salaries and bonuses for pirate activists in public budgets and municipal companies and for companies controlled by the Pirates, such as the Prague Innovation Institute, which he associated with the circular economy and what he called climate hysteria. In response to the call for people to subscribe to the Pirates like Netflix, he added that he had nothing against it. He claimed that the subscription offered something between a political sitcom and a documentary about the life of a sect, which he portrayed derogatorily. #Praha #politika #PirátskáStrana (translated)
