Poor sanitary conditions, low levels of security and lack of parking places in rest areas for truck drivers (debate)

Road freight transport is a key component of the European economy. Any disruption to this sector has an immediate impact on the price and availability of many goods. One of the biggest problems that discourages people from working in the sector is the disastrous state of parking and rest facilities for drivers. When the Commission and Parliament look to the distant future, truck drivers who drive …

Air passenger rights (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. It is true that the update of the rules on air passenger rights is a success for this Parliament. And perhaps this reform is not perfect and does not solve all problems, but it makes travelling in Europe simpler, more predictable and safer. It also limits some unfair practices and I am therefore particularly pleased to accept my amendment prohibiting additional fees for…

The resilience of the European transport sector and the need to ensure the supply of essential goods amid ongoing geopolitical instability (debate)

Dear lady, this port is indeed to be in the open field, but for it to be built, it must first be designed. And in order to design it, you have to invent it first. And you pay for it too, my dear lady. And you think, oh, here's the field, here you have to drive a shovel. If you want to build the Central Communication Port with a shovel, you were indeed right when you once shouted "Down with PCK and…

The resilience of the European transport sector and the need to ensure the supply of essential goods amid ongoing geopolitical instability (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. The Central Transport Port project assumes the construction of the largest transport hub in Poland and in Central and Eastern Europe. It is important for both civilian and military transport. Despite this, the ruling government in Poland was now referred to as PiS megalomania, an overscaled and economically unjustified investment. Instead of a substantive debate …

EU governance under pressure – institutional responses to global challenges (debate)

Social media and the internet create the impression that we live in a world of crises bigger and more difficult than ever, that the end of the world awaits us outside the window, or a climate catastrophe, and the earth is burning.

Madam President, I'm sorry. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. European law has ceased to serve citizens and businesses and has become a tool of political blackmail and a cause of the crisis that is eating up our economy. The Green Deal, the conditionality mechanism, the immigration pact, the ban on registration of diesel cars or the regulation of the digital market have become a burden that our compani…

Presentation of the Better Regulation and Enforcement Communication (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, A plenary session without a debate on better regulation would be a lost session. As I see it, the strategy for the tenth term of the European Parliament is to debate on a monthly basis how to make law better, more effective or even more transparent, rather than simply finally passing such a law. As Cato the Elder repeated in each of his speeches ‘C…

Air passenger rights (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Passenger rights are not a cost, it's a standard. For years, the European Union has been proud of this standard, of the protection it has provided to air passengers from hours of delays, flight cancellations and denied boarding. Today we hear that this protection must be weakened, because it is expensive. But that's a false argument. The pro…

Could it be 45th or 56th? We should have given these funds to Ukraine a long time ago. We would not have to give so many loans then, and Kiev would fight Putin for Russian money.
