      The demonstration today at Letná is basically saying „enough is enough“ to corruption. News are reporting anywhere from 250,000 to 400,000 people showing up to demonstrate against the government and to side with the president. This is because there’s a real, sinking feeling that the Czech Republic is sliding down the same path as Hungary or Slovakia.

      The whole thing, organized under the slogan „We won’t let our future be stolen“, is a reaction to Andrej Babiš’s coalition government. Babiš is currently the prime minister despite being on trial for subsidy fraud, a trial that’s essentially been frozen because the government just voted to keep his parliamentary immunity intact until 2029.

      But the straw that broke the camel’s back was the recent scandal with Foreign Minister Petr Macinka. He tried to blackmail President Petr Pavel over cabinet appointments, sending late-night texts threatening to „burn bridges in a way that would make the history books“ if the President didn’t fall in line.

      Pavel should have started his own party before elections. It might given more of a leverage agaisnt current far right coalition.

      How this happens every time. We elect russian err…far right party in government and then have to gather half of the country in protests to get rid of the parasites

      I wonder how many of these protesters voted for his party 6 months ago. 1 in 3 voters voted for Babis‘ party in the parliamentary elections.

      I think that corruption while in the office is a high crime and the higher you are, the higher the charge. A ministry condemned for corruption sold millions of people’s faith for money – he deserve a minimum of 15 years in jail and perpetual ban from office.

      Everyone is roasting us because a lot of stupid Hungarians keep re-electing Orbán. However, it seems like other countries still haven’t learned from our mistakes and they keep voting for similar mobsters. It almost feels like there’s a competition to see how quickly you can make your own country just as shitty as Hungary.

      Respect! Send the putin lover assholes where they belong…
      Greetings from a changing Hungary!

      Yes, I also live in the Czech Republic and I know perfectly well why this is happening. When half of the idiots choose populist European skeptics and pro-Russian politicians, the country is divided into adequate and inadequate ones. for real patriots and for those who will sell their mother for extra 100 erous.

      I am from Belarus. And i lived in Poland, the Czech Republic, and for a while in Slovakia. Russian propaganda, which has been developed for decades since the emergence of social networks, is so strong that modern European governments cannot cope with it. And this propaganda mainly goes through social networks and reaches many young Poles, Czechs, Slovaks who do not have a good understanding of politics, history, or a good education. It’s just that this propaganda is not so pro-Russian, but rather anti-government, saying that all politicians are bad, but we are good and we will only take care of you (Czechs, Hungarians, Poles) and we will not give money to Brussels, Ukrainians and so on, simultaneously feeding people that not everything is so clear with the Russian war in Ukraine shows that both sides are equally guilty. This is the case in all of these countries. on tiktok, Twitter, and Facebook.

      I mean…yeah, i Support this Protest, but…haven’t they Had an election Just a few month ago? And wasn’t it quiet clear that this government would do exactly what it’s doing now?

      I wish our fellow Americans would take note.

      Would have been simpler to not vote for the already known shady dude party into power – ou well.

      EUs favorite Chad president now has to try fix it.

      Is the Czech Republic the same as republic of Ireland that the president is a symbol of figure head and no power regards to the government in power?
