"Mr President, I wish to register a protest about the portrayal of the Polish Government and Prime Minister as comic opera figures by the media across the Union. The most recent issue of the
has also stooped to this level. The forces of liberalism are refusing to accept the will of the nation. The nation voted in free elections to entrust power to Catholics for whom God, truth and goodness are more important than the free market. Even so, our new leaders are being hounded and criticised by liberals in the media.
Democracy is also being used as a smokescreen for the media terrorism that is currently being perpetrated with impunity in Poland. The target is the priest who heads the
radio station which has millions of listeners in the country. The liberal press has printed at least 18 thousand offensive articles during the last eight years. The question arises as to why the Union’s agencies, whose aim is to defend democracy, human rights and freedoms and to combat intolerance only react to certain types of human rights violations, turning a deaf ear and a blind eye when Catholics are involved. Indeed, these agencies even ape the behaviour of those sections of the media that are opposed to traditional values. I would like to remind the House that a democracy that is not based on truth will inevitably become a dictatorship based on relativism."@en1
