Globalist EU Forcing Hate Speech Laws on the Irish-Given Two Months to Comply

Wait 5 sec.

The Court of Justice of the EU has warned Ireland that the country has only two months to comply with the free speech-smothering “hate speech laws” being rammed down the throats of citizens across Europe.In February, Vice President JD Vance delivered fiery remarks at the Munich Security Conference, taking direct aim at European elites for their war on free speech and authoritarian censorship tactics.In the no-holds-barred address, Vance exposed the hypocrisy of European leaders, who claim to champion democracy while silencing dissent and weaponizing so-called ‘misinformation’ laws to crush political opposition.Per Irish outlet The Journal:Under existing EU rules on combating racism and xenophobia, the European Commission believes Ireland is allegedly ”failing” to comply with laws, first agreed to in 2008, surrounding the criminalisation of race-based violence and hatred.In the Commission’s monthly infringement package, which details what countries it believes are failing to comply with European law, Ireland has been given two months to begin implementing laws preventing racially-charged hate speech.*****The government has repeatedly pointed to existing legislation that criminalises the incitement to hatred and hate speech, under the Prohibition of Incitement to Hatred Act 1989. In 2017, the Irish Courts Service said just five people were convicted under the law.The existing legislation is not good enough in the eyes of the European Commission, however. It today warned Ireland and Finland that laws must be amended within two months or face the possibility of being referred to the Court of Justice of the EU.According to the Commission’s opinion:“The European Commission decided to send a reasoned opinion to Ireland (INFR(2024)2205) and to Finland (INFR(2020)2320) for failing to comply with provisions of the Council Framework Decision 2008/913/JHA on combating racism and xenophobia by means of criminal law.”“The Commission sent letters of formal notice to Ireland in 2024 and to Finland in 2021 and 2023. After having analysed the two Member States’ replies to the letters of formal notice, the Commission considers that its concerns were not fully addressed.”“While Ireland notified some transposition measures in the meantime, the Commission considers that Ireland still fails to transpose the provisions related to criminalising the public incitement to violence or hatred against a group or a member of such group based on certain characteristics, as well as the conducts of condoning, denial, and gross trivialisation of international crimes and the Holocaust.”“Therefore, the Commission has decided to issue reasoned opinions to Ireland and Finland, which now have two months to respond and take the necessary measures. Otherwise, the Commission may decide to refer the cases to the Court of Justice of the European Union.”You probably haven’t heard about this because there has been very little media coverage.Ursula von der Leyen and the lunatics in the EU are attempting to force hate speech laws on the people of Ireland.Will you comply?If introduced, I promise to break these laws on day 1. pic.twitter.com/CWszr4Hheu— MichaeloKeeffe (@Mick_O_Keeffe) June 1, 2025The post Globalist EU Forcing Hate Speech Laws on the Irish-Given Two Months to Comply appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.
