"Different" Motorists. The plumber actively responded, Sedláčková objected to Good Friday

Last week's meeting of the Media and Culture Committee was notable for the participation of Motorists, particularly Minister Boris Šťastný, amid a heated debate over the abolition of fees for Czech Television and Czech Radio. The session saw both supporters and opponents of the fee cancellation present, with significant public attendance. Minister of Culture Oto Klempíř addressed the committee, defending the proposed changes to funding and promising to answer questions, despite facing criticism. His controversial remark referring to the fee approval as 'Great Friday' sparked backlash, leading to an apology. The Motorists' active involvement marked a departure from their usual reticence in political discussions, while opposition members expressed concerns about media independence and quality.
