  1. What a scandal oh…no. This is normal in every country lol

  2. So are these the funds that were promised to be unblocked or different?

  3. Investigation? Who is going to investigate it? Thieves?

    Government has just fallen.

  4. >A dedicated website presented applications from businesspeople in the sector, but that service has since become unavailable.

    This is how you know it’s essentially government media. An actual journalist would have ask *why* and *who* **made** it unavailable.

  5. Was there a direct indication and restrictions to where the money should go? Probably not – so our government can go and fuck themselves.

  6. I’ll stop after this one, my favorite so far:

    540k PLN for a “Consulting” company

    If you search for it on the EU website, you find it’s for the purchase of a house boat 😀

    I tried to find the business where I could rent that boat (that’s what they’re doing according to the company registration), which I have no doubt exists and is operating, but I failed. The only place where NIP and REGON show up is company databases and EU grant websites 🤷‍♂️ One of the two addresses of the business is what looks like a recently renovated szeregowiec in Poznań. The other one a farm(?) in the middle of nowhere.

    I of course don’t know if this is the same person as the man behind “EURO consulting”, but there is one person with exactly that name in Poznań, and he happens to be partial owner and “ESG consultant”

    >during his 20 years of experience in the EU advisory industry, he has climbed every possible career ladder in this field – from intern to Partner at a leading Polish consulting firm. He has participated as a consultant in over 450 investment, research, development, and implementation projects. 

    of/for a company advertising

    >We effectively obtain funds from European Funds for the development of Polish businesses.

    But I assume this is all just coincidences. Still, I find it funny.

  7. LOL the comments section did not disappoint – [unavailable], [unavailable], [unavailable], [unavailable], [unavailable]…
