‘The European Commission is getting more political than its predecessors. In my view, this is unfortunate, given that this body is meant to be independent—the “Guardian of the Treaties”.’
Frequent charges against the Commission are predominantly based on the fact that it lacks democratic legitimacy for making decisions regarding issues of ideology, and it is not held accountable by anyone for its political decisions, which would certainly be unthinkable in democratic circumstances.
Here is the reason why the Commission is being more ‘woke than the wokest’ and why it is taking sides in a divisive debate that tears apart a large swathe of the political class in Europe.
Pedro Sánchez came to power promising political ‘regeneration’; eight years later, Ceuta has become the clearest symbol of what his experiment produced instead. Corruption scandals, radical social engineering and a permissive migration policy have converged in an enclave fighting for its existence against invading masses, while Madrid’s denial has betrayed Ceuta, Spain and, increasingly, Europe itself.
The Save Europe Act has passed 700,000 signatures less than three months after launch, keeping the remigration campaign on course for its one-million target despite Brussels refusing to register it as an official ECI. Co-founder Eva Vlaardingerbroek says the next steps are to reach one million and take the European Commission to court over the decision.
At least four migrant boys have been raped and remain hospitalized in Ceuta, as the number of victims in the aftermath of the mass invasion continues to rise. Judicial proceedings now cover at least 14 victims, many of them underage, while police have deployed specialists to protect thousands of minors still in the enclave, where the child protection system is operating at 4,600 per cent of normal capacity.
Europe’s tallest statue of the Virgin Mary was consecrated on Saturday in Konotopie, Poland, where around 2,000 worshippers gathered for the Feast of the Assumption. Privately funded by billionaire Roman Karkosik as a votive offering, the project arrives as Poland, a fundamentally deeply Christian country, wrestles with secularization and declining Catholic practice.
‘If national continuity is sufficiently real to transmit liabilities from the past, it must also be sufficiently real to transmit assets and obligations into the future. Today’s Europeans did not build most of the cities they live in, create the legal systems they rely on, establish their borders or accumulate all the institutional and cultural capital they possess. They inherited them. Yet neither are they the final owners. Their children will inherit what remains.’
Italian intelligence has warned that another mass illegal invasion from Morocco into Ceuta could begin within days, possibly as early as 10 August, as security services track renewed online mobilization resembling the campaign behind the 30 July wave. Spain is reinforcing the enclave as thousands from the first storm remain, leaving reception facilities overwhelmed and public order strained.
At least five migrant girls aged 14 or younger have allegedly been raped in Ceuta, according to reports from the Spanish enclave invaded by 72,000–80,000 from Morocco last week. NGOs said that around 4,000 to 7,000 unaccompanied minors are still in the city, with reception centres operating at 2,600 per cent of their capacity, creating fertile ground for sexual assault, trafficking and exploitation.
At a time when public debate is increasingly polarized and superficial, Hungarian Conservative remains committed to depth and independent thought.
