If you have no knowledge, why you write about it ? You saw how was working polish TV for 8 years? It was propaganda like in Belarus or North Korea.

Not straight away, but it’s coming.  

I guess the benefit of the doubt when enacting polities after entering office is only given to right wing politicians :whistle:

And it will be still, just on the other side.  If he wants TV to be different all he has to do is start his own channels. The EU has plenty money;

This is bullshit. This is public TV, they have enough time to build own medium with their money (but they were afraid if being dependent on someone other than the party leader) , all polish citizen paid taxes and recaive TV like North Korea. Of course we shoupd rethink idea of narional polish broadcaster, but it was stricrly political propaganda with awful broadcast full hate. Money from budget went in large streams to his propaganda, and the presenters earned enourmous sums. Over 11 000 000 voters want that, counting right wing Konfederacja even more.  Yes it's still a  risk how this will be working, but I am sure not so cruel like previous owners.

Yep, only :CHN :IND & :INA are allowed to be coal-fired now. The good news is they are building lots of new ones. :champion:

Didn't Europe recommission a number of Coal-fired power plants since Russian invasion of Ukraine?

    • I’ll start first;   Obviously,  @brunamoura in cross country skiing if she qualifies  (no pressure)    Curling:  Team Hasselborg and Team Edin,  Kaldvee/Lill, and to a lesser extent  Team Fujisawa and  Team Schwaller Ice Hockey:  Sweden men’s team,  Arturs Silovs/Teddy Blueger, whichever Canucks are on  United States’ men’s team, and  Finland’s men’s team if Lankinen can keep up his good play (Even though he’s probably going to get traded from the Canucks after this season, he prefers being on a team where he can get more starts than more money. Still I have a soft spot for him) Alpine Skiing:  Marco Odermatt,  Aleksandr Aamodt Kilde Freestyle Skiing:  Jakara Anthony,  Birk Ruud,  Sina Sigenthaler,  Andri Ragettli Snowboarding:  Leon Ulbricht,  Marcus Kleveland,  Anna Gasser Speed Skating:  Jutta Leerdam,  Jordan Stolz Luge:  Thomas Steu/Wolfgang Kindl,  Tobias Wendl/Tobias Arlt   From a Canadian perspective, I’m rooting for our men’s hockey team above all. Then, our curling teams, especially Team Homan if she wins Olympic Trials. Then Max Parrot, Mikael Kingsbury, Eliot Grondin, William Dandjinou, our women’s hockey team, and our ski cross squad. But really I’ll be rooting for all of our athletes. 
    • Decided to start a thread on this early, and get some discussion early    When I mean athletes, I mean athletes from other countries mainly… but ones that represent your country work too

    • I disagree, the Christiansen hit on Kuzmenko was as clean as can be, why would you try to start a fight after that? Honestly, I find it a little pathetic and soft from Pospisil, but maybe that’s just me…
