  1. Blimey, who knew capitulating to the far-right was the new trend in Brussels? Next up, a runway show featuring “How to Dress for Political Backpedaling” – can’t wait! 😏

  2. Looks like the Parliament’s decided to play a game of musical chairs with democracy, and guess who’s left standing? Spoiler alert: it’s not the voters. 😂

    Looks like the Parliament’s new strategy is to let the far-right take the wheel while the rest of us enjoy the scenic route to chaos. 🚗💨 Brilliant move, lads!

    Seems like the EU’s new motto is “If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em,” eh? 🤷‍♂️ Perfect time to dust off that ol’ “democracy” handbook, right? 🥳
