DEWritten Statement

Accelerating the phase-out of Russian gas and other Russian energy commodities in the EU (debate)

Today we are discussing how we can continue to decouple economically from Russia, which is twice idiotic. On the one hand, a ceasefire in Ukraine is within reach – negotiations in Riyadh are going well. You may not have noticed this, our foreign representative has really done nothing to make this peace possible. On the other hand, we continue to source gas and oil from Russia – we are only paying

DESpeech

France, Italy and Belgium: Latest anti-democratic violence by radical far-left groups, implications on public order and the legitimate right to protest (debate)

Madam President, France, Milan and Brussels are burning. And soon all of Europe will follow. Migrants and left-wing extremists are shattering European cities. And you're still talking about harmless student protests in here. Is that really your seriousness? Aren't you ashamed? These are civil wars that we are experiencing. Town halls are stormed and torched, police officers thrown stones, entire n

DESpeech

The need for an EU strategy to counter Islamist entryism and the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood network (debate)

Madam President, This debate is once again hard to beat in hypocrisy. For many years we have been warning about political Islam, the Muslim Brotherhood and the dangers for the whole of Europe. You, on the other hand, appease, gloss over and defame all those who dare to stand up against it, as Islamophobic or right-wing extremists. They are idly watching radical Islam spread in Europe through mass

Hybrid attacks against the EU Member States (joint debate)

Mr President! Yes, migration is used by third countries as a political weapon. I congratulate you on this great insight, ladies and gentlemen. This is nothing new; We haven't seen it since yesterday. Turkey, Belarus, Morocco and many, many more examples – this danger has always existed and will always exist. The real problem is that the EU allows this weakness at all. I have to say that it is shoc

One-minute speeches on matters of political importance

Madam President, What we have experienced in Ceuta is nothing more than a complete failure of the European Union. The EU has proven once again that it is still unable to finally protect its own citizens. More than 80,000 migrants in just one or two days – this is the result of a catastrophic EU migration and security policy that we have been witnessing since 2015 and the result of a socialist gove

DESpeech

One-minute speeches on matters of political importance

Mr President! Spain wants to legalize 1.3 million illegals. This is not a humanitarian act, it is a security madness and a huge threat to the whole of Europe. These are millions of new pull factors, a dangerous signal to the whole world: Just come here illegally, in the end you can stay anyway. And what does Brussels do, what does Commissioner Brunner do? Nothing. Not a word of criticism, nothing.

DESpeech

One-minute speeches on matters of political importance

Mr President! The time is ripe for the biggest remigration offensive in European history: Syria needs its citizens back. Asylum is temporary protection from persecution and not permanent mass immigration into European welfare systems. Assad has long been history and thus also any basis for a protection status. The EU itself has confirmed this for all by fully reactivating its Syria agreement at th

DESpeech

The Commission’s 2025 Rule of Law report (debate)

Mr President! This rule of law report is in reality nothing more than a political weapon, an instrument of power and pressure by the EU against patriotic governments that do not want to support this centralism and migratory madness, their policies against the interests of the citizens. They want to put financial pressure on you to make them docile – best example: Hungary. And I can only be absolut

Situation of fundamental rights in the European Union in 2024 and 2025 (debate)

Thank you for this amusing question. I think it's funny: If you have no arguments in terms of content, you probably have to criticize the style. I'm sorry if you get through my speech in any way. offended feel – or as you have said. But that is exactly what you should do, because you are closing your eyes to the real problems in the European Union. And yes, I have read this report very carefully a

Situation of fundamental rights in the European Union in 2024 and 2025 (debate)

Mr President! Thank you for presenting this report on fundamental rights in the European Union, once again, to the whole world, your clear ideological thrust. 30 times you speak of LGBTIQ, 27 times of racism, 8 times of so-called Refugees and not once on the fundamental rights, on the right to home for those people who have lived here for generations. What is this understanding of fundamental righ

Madam President, The European Union is now the greatest threat to democracy in Europe. The best example is Hungary. What the EU is doing there is nothing more than election manipulation. The goal is obvious: the patriotic government of Viktor Orbán, the last bulwark for peace, security, freedom and love of homeland, the only one who opposes another billions to Ukraine, is to fall and ins

Spain’s large-scale regularisation policy and its impact on the Schengen Area and EU migration policy (debate)

Madam President, More than 500,000 illegal migrants are legalised in Spain with a stroke of the pen, unleashing a flood of illegal migrants across Europe. This is what socialist migration policy looks like. Too many illegals? No problem. Instead of deporting them, we just legalize them. This is a security madness that threatens the whole of Europe. That's 500,000 new pull factors. This is not an a

Building a stronger European defence in light of an increasingly volatile international environment (debate)

Madam President, Armament, rearmament, rearmament – even more weapons, even more billions for armaments companies and even more power for Brussels: This is what the European Security Strategy looks like. You are scared and scared, you want to pour tens of billions into the defence industry, mostly on the go, in order to finally achieve your big goal of a defence ‑ and debt union, with even more co

Restoring control of migration: returns, visa policy and third-country cooperation (topical debate)

Mr President! Welcome to the European People's Party debate on Restoring control of migration and thus welcome to the greatest hypocrisy and show politics. I ask you: Why did you give up control at all? And what has prevented you from getting them back in the last ten years? Nothing! Instead of providing security, you'd rather demonise and fight the right-wing, the patriotic parties that dared to

Incentivising defence-related investments in the EU budget to implement the ReArm Europe Plan (debate)

Mr President! Yes, the European war psychosis continues. 800 billion – ReArm Europe. This is a slap in the face for European taxpayers. While the people of Europe no longer know how to afford their lives, they are shifting billions more and more into the arms industry and pushing us further and further into this war. For your military union, you seem to be ready for anything. They are looting ever

Order of business

Madam President, I refer to Rule 10(1) of our Rules of Procedure. I quote: The Member must respect the dignity of the Parliament and must not damage his reputation. In principle, criticism of MPs in the exercise of their mandate should be handled with restraint, but here a member of parliament has crossed a border where one can no longer look away.

European Defence Industry Programme and a framework of measures to ensure the timely availability and supply of defence products (‘EDIP’) (debate)

Madam President, The EU is taking the next step towards a military union. As always, the Austrian Federal Government is at the forefront and is trampling on our neutrality. This European Defence Program This is nothing more than the next giant step towards a war economy. In the future, Member States will be able to have up to 100% of the costs of individual defence projects financed through the Eu

One-minute speeches on matters of political importance

Mr President. The EU presents its new asylum and migration report and once again proves a failure across the board. There is still no talk of stopping the pull factors. There is still no talk of remigration or effective external border protection. Instead, the election for Austria in the future means only forced distribution or penalties in the millions. EUR 20 000 per rejected migrant. If a count
