Libertarec proposed a compromise solution for RTV: the contribution should not be abolished but made voluntary. According to him, this would respect the referendum decision and the right to choose, given the close ratio of 50:50 and a difference of 600 votes. He suggested that RTV should establish new subscription agreements with those who would sign them, set the subscription fee independently, and those who support the contribution would become subscribers and pay double the amount. #RTV #referendum #mediji (translated)

Žiga Turk proposed that regarding RTV, the coalition should first adopt a minor amendment that would introduce a conscience objection to paying the fee before making more significant changes to the law. According to his proposal, the fee would be reduced by 75 percent for the contributor if they stated in a justified letter that RTV does not fulfill one or more tasks from the article marked as xxx. #RTV #zakonodaja #mediji (translated)

Zdeněk Šarapatka thanked his supporters and stated that their support helped him get back on his feet after the results of the Senate elections. According to him, the campaign in Prague 5 and 13 was not a fair competition about topics, but a contest over billboards. He claimed that one of the candidates was running a concurrent campaign for the Senate and the Prague City Hall, transferring funds between them, including money from a company building houses. According to Šarapatka, the state supervision office did not respond to the violations of the rules. The candidate, he claimed, received 14,606 votes out of a total of 45,782. Šarapatka also criticized the ODS, which, according to him, despite an agreement with his TOP 09, fielded its own candidate, thereby reducing the chances of defeating Václav Láska. He stated that their candidate hardly presented political positions during public appearances and instead relied on a romanticized story about the students' relationship with the school principal. He added that the students of the candidate's school, according to Šarapatka, got involved in the campaign, even though the principal was balancing on the edge of the education law. The candidate received 12,162 votes out of 45,782. As an earlier example of the split with ODS, Šarapatka mentioned its member Benda, who, according to him, appointed Matocha and Xaver Veselý to the Czech Television Council. He claimed that part of ODS contributed to his failure in the election despite the party agreements at that time. He also recalled that six years ago, at ODS's request, he supported its candidate in the second round of the Senate elections in Mělník, whom he claimed he had not seen publicly appear in the Senate since then. Šarapatka stated that he would not make the same mistake again. According to him, the result meant that there would be no amendment to the lustration law nor security clearances for government members and their deputies, and that there would be no qualified fight for a free Czech Radio and Czech Television. At the same time, he urged his supporters to keep going. #politika #volby #Senát (translated)

Martin Bartkovský reminded that Andrej Babiš last year in the square in Ústí nad Labem urged people not to vote for those whose leadership they were not satisfied with.

He commented on the result with the words "Wow." #ÚstínadLabem #Volby2023 #AndrejBabiš (translated)

The last scout™ wrote that in his opinion not all political non-profit organizations are the same and some are useful for the government coalition. He claimed that high school students from Trivis, involved in the activities of the non-profit organization Chance for Return, which he labeled as strongly connected with the association Svatopluk, distributed flyers for the ANO movement on Wednesday morning during lessons at I. P. Pavlov Square in Prague. Elsewhere, according to him, they distributed flyers for Motorists. https://t.co/VZidSBkYZ4 #politika #neziskovky #mládež (translated)

He described RTV as the foundation of Slovenian identity and an irreplaceable pillar of culture, science, and language. #Slovenija #Kultura #Politika #SI (translated)

According to the current assumption, part of the connections of line 17 should first continue to Nové Dvory, and later, after the completion of the next stage of metro line D, then lines 3 and 20. "According to the current assumption, part of the connections of line 17 should first continue to Nové Dvory, and later, after the completion of the next stage of metro line D, then lines 3 and 20.

Tomáš Prouza claimed that the Prague magistrate abolished price caps for traditional taxis with taximeters from October 1, without notifying residents and tourists. According to him, this allowed drivers to charge a starting rate of 666 crowns and 444 crowns per kilometer, which he said could lead to rides costing tens of thousands of crowns. He linked the change to the long-term effort of traditional taxi drivers to limit competition from digital platforms. He stated that the parliamentary amendment, advocated by ANO and the Pirates, aimed to drive thousands of taxi drivers out of Prague. He attributed falling prices, better ride availability, and the ability to know the price in advance to the applications. According to Prouza, the responsibility for the taxi service area lay with Prague's deputy mayor for transport, Jaromír Beránek. Prouza called the change an adjustment pushed through at the request of the taxi mafia and warned that it could damage Prague's reputation. He also referred to the city's decision to abolish the price cap and questioned the timing of the change before the elections and its secrecy. https://t.co/ipI2QMVBLE #taxi #prague #praha #magistrat #taxi #praha #magistrat (translated)

Lately, it is growing a bit (preferences - editor's note), there is a tendency, and I am happy about it. So we still have to get it to the 'top'," says Matěj Ondřej Havel. "We hear it in the squares, people grab me by the sleeve in the train, in the metro, everywhere I move, and they say: Above all, don't argue among yourselves and get rid of Babiš for us," Havel asserts. #volby2023 #politika #českárepublika (translated)

has nothing to do with politics For example, the fact that the most people in the square were drawn by an unknown woman from Cheb, whose campaign – in the words of the cheerleader of the ANO movement, Michal David – "has nothing to do with politics". #Volby2026 #Politika #Praha (translated)
