Hi everyone
Hi everyone. On July the 1st, Ireland will take over as president of the European Council. And lame duck Taoiseach Micheál Martin just cannot wait. So, today in advance of taking over the presidency, Roberta Metsola, who's the president of the European Parliament, was in government buildings behind me meeting up with Tánaiste Simon Harris alongside with Minister for Foreign Affairs and Defense Helen McEntee. Now, this evening, she traveled up to Dublin Castle, just about a mile and a half from here,.
And met with Micheál Martin, lame duck Taoiseach himself. Now, she's probably got a good, um, bit of support from the Irish political leaders who have no interest in standing up for our sovereignty. They're very much signed up to the European Union agenda. And in the last couple of days, Metsola was speaking about seizing the moment. Now, at the press conference this evening, she also spoke about seizing the moment. She spoke about European Union enlargement. This should be a key.
Tenant for Ireland's presidency of the European Council. About the accession of Ukraine into the European Union. And wait for it, not just that, Moldova and Montenegro. Micheál Martin responded to say when Ireland were European Union presidents back in 20 or 2004, rather, they opened up to 10 countries including Metsola's own home country of Malta. And we all know who benefits from that.
Free movement of capital is always followed by the free movement of labor, isn't it? Those at the very top that benefit from those decisions. She also went on to speak about that this is ambitious in terms of European Union enlargement project, and it's credible, and it's a win-win for all countries. Well, let me know in the comments what you think about this. One of the most corrupt countries in the world. Ukraine joining European Union. And we'll be on.
The hook for what we and BlackRock, I'm sure, will be licking their lips at the prospect of making massive windfalls and profits from what takes place in Ukraine as we move towards the digital transformation that Micheál Martin has been speaking about. Uh the She also went on to speak about the issues of competitiveness. It is important because I did a video a number of days ago around the issues around one Europe, one market, which is essentially.
A plan for the global corporations and multinationals to make massive windfalls through simplification rules and the capital markets union that's being pushed by European Union. This is about big corporations at the expense of ordinary people. And this is what the key tenets of Ireland's presidency will be. Competitiveness and Micheál Martin echoed those sentiments today where it's about innovation, investment, and competing. We all know what competitiveness means. Profits being siphoned upwards while a race to the bottom in terms of workers' pay and.
Conditions
Conditions. The opposition will be uh definitely silent on this as well. They won't speak about it whatsoever. So, I'll add a link to that video in the comments below as well. She also spoke about the European Union budget and agreeing this and this should be robust in the next period of time. Roberta herself has agreed to pushing forward with the rearming Europe plan, which is the 800 billion euro plan being pushed by Ursula von der Leyen about.
Building up European security to to stand up for our core values, according to Micheál Martin. And those core values are, without doubt, supporting the corporations. Roberta is no stranger to lobbying in those corporations in terms of what's taking place in in Europe. Her own husband is one of the key lobbyists in the European Union for the Royal Caribbean Group, second largest cruise line and company in the world. He was lobbying against much of the green agenda that's been pushed on the rest of.
Ordinary working people, while their big friends, big corporations, I got off scot-free because this is part of the agenda, isn't it? And she also has a bit of favoritism with Ursula in terms of her friend the position of key advisor in her cabinet to her brother-in-law on a princely salary of a 20,000 per month. So, this is who's in town today. This is the agenda they're pushing. This is in advance of the European Union presidency, which is coming to Ireland.
In the next week, and we'll see what takes place with that >> [snorts] >> over the coming time. And there has been conversations around protests taking place and because of the skyrocketing fuel and energy bills in Ireland. We saw them back in April as well. So, let's see when von der Leyen comes to town. Currently, parts of Dublin are on lockdown up around Dublin Castle. And we'll expect to see more of this taking place over the coming months where people have.
Had enough of what's taking place with this European Union agenda as it drives us towards this Orwellian dystopia. The digital transformation and they'll be pushing their digital euro. So, watch this space over the next period of time. And Micheál Martin said, "Strength through unity." This is the agenda of Ireland's presidency. And Ireland stands full square with Ukraine. Typical. As there were talks about Zelenskyy coming to town again because he's begging for money.
“As there were talks about Zelenskyy coming to town again because he's begging for money”
So, a lot of interesting in the coming up
So, a lot of interesting in the coming up over the next period of time. And let's keep you updated and posted to all these events taking place. Well, the media will gloss over and won't talk about what's really behind what's taking place. So, just thanks so much for all the support with my videos. Really appreciate them.
