According to the newspapers, the European Parliament in Strasbourg raised the flags of the new UE members the 1st of May in the presence of Lech Walesa, Solidarnösc's founder and former polish president. And he said:

" Today, the wishes of the former generations become true. We could make it only with the help of God. Faith and solidarity build miracles. "

And Tomasz Kaminski, polish eurodeputy, payed tribute (in that order) to the Pope, Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan.

URGH. If Europe continues on that path, I'll become an euro-sceptic.
