A Polish coal miner, a climate activist and an Irishman walk into a room...
And they got on well at the #EuropeanIdeasLab in Warsaw. Thanks Robert Misiek from the coal miners union, and @DominikaLasota1 for the #JustTransition discussion, Solidarity is key.

In today’s #EuropeanIdeasLab panel on #RuleOfLaw in Poland I spoke about how @EU_Commission &MS have looked away so long that backsliding has cemented. All fundamentals are dismantled: independent judiciary, media freedom, civic space, rights of women, LGBTIQs, refugees etc 1/2

"For a long time I did not understand what "Just transition" meant - so I am grateful that we're here together with the people impacted by the transition. We have a plan & the money, what‘s missing is the political will. We Greens are ready!" @Ula_Zielinska #EuropeanIdeasLab

"Lying to people and telling them there is a future in fossil fuels will not solve any problems, the opposite - we know we have a challenge ahead but we also know we can achieve a green and just transition if we all work together," our co-President @TerryReintke #EuropeanIdeasLab

"We know how to to change Poland, from “CoalLand” to a very “CleanLand”.

We have solutions for the energy transformation, we just need to get it started! We need to move to green energy, energy efficiency and grid modernisation.

"30% of Europeans struggle with their bills.

We must create a new energy system that works for people & climate:

- Ban energy disconnections for vulnerable families
- Tackle extreme profits of fossil fuels companies
- Subsidise renovation of homes" @laiasegura #EuropeanIdeasLab

"Any politician that claims to be concerned about citizens & energy poverty needs to look at profits that fossil fuels companies make.

It’s not climate policies that drive prices up, it’s fossil fuels prices that are driving the energy prices up," @BasEickhout #EuropeanIdeasLab

As a consequence of the Russian aggression, Europe finds itself in an energy crisis.

How can the EU & Poland turn this crisis into an opportunity, that sets the way towards a 100% renewable energy system?

I'm in Warsaw to talk transport at the #EuropeanIdeasLab. I can see a clear need for some joined-up thinking

From Poland, to Italy, Malta and Finland far-right politicians and ultraconservative movements are instrumentalising our bodies.

"Governments across the EU have different tactics to restrict NGOs & ensure they aren't too critical.

There is a lot the EU Commission could & should do: rule of law has to be respected, and EU funds to countries should be made dependent on this" @Tineke_Strik #EuropeanIdeasLab

"We cannot just scold at the Orbáns and Kaczyńskis and their attacks on #CivilSociety.

We as policy-makers need to defend activists and NGOs all over the EU by providing them with legal protection," our MEP @SLagodinsky at #EuropeanIdeasLab

To defend civil society, we need to make funding for NGOs more flexible. We need to give civil society a seat at the table for new legislative initiatives. And we need an alarm mechanism for attacks on civic space. @EUCivicForum‘s Filip Pazderski at #EuropeanIdeasLab @GreensEFA

„We are at a deadlock in #Poland.Our civil society is under attack.On the streets & by the government. We need to unify civil movements to defend democracy for future generations. We can change things,but we need to stand together!“ @strajkkobiet‘s Magda Gorecka #EuropeanIdeasLab
