@lebronjames75 @augustus @lain You must be kidding yourself if you don't think that this is where the rest of Europe will be heading towards. When Poland rebelled, there were threats by the EU. Right now, the most they could do is threaten and add economic sanctions. They don't have the army that some of them do want which would let them include force for not complying. I've seen some of the fear-mongering about decisions Poland made for themselves and how bad this is. There is also a fear about Europe becoming more right-wing or nationalist, probably dating back to world war fears in Europe.

Things are more entrenched where I am. I don't think that leaving the EU solves all our problems by any means. But it should have given us more freedom to self-determine and create our own laws or go back to older common laws which support our freedom. The EU were increasingly infringing on our laws. I don't think that is made up as they have created a lot of laws over time. My government going harder on these things doesn't mean that the EU weren't deciding laws. Their interference isn't helping matters but legitimising it. The government should be listening to the public/citizens of their country, not to the EU or all these geopolitics whether it is Russia or the US.
