Hungary May Sue EU Parliament Over Salis Immunity Vote

ER Editor: The Antifa theme is now touching Hungary and the EU in a public way. We published this from Zerohedge yesterday on Sweden being highlighted for harboring Johan Victorin, founder of the Rose City Antifa group active in Portland. See —

Now we have former teacher and Italian MEP Ilaria Salis allegedly being protected by the EU over violent actions she participated in from as far back as early 2023. Images on Twitter show the attacks on people’s heads as being particularly gruesome, if real.

A member of an Antifa group which, for some reason, went to Hungary and attacked random people in public with hammers, she and her colleagues got arrested and were facing sizeable prison sentences. The Italian media and the left came to her rescue by nominating her as an EU member of parliament. Now the EU has protected her from prosecution, but strangely by a totally split-down-the-middle vote, which gives her just one vote extra in favour. Orban is firing back.

Somewhere this sounds like a dredged-up case to put the extremist Left (deservedly, we might add) on the hotseat in public consciousness, as other stories come forward at this time. Why can’t EU parliamentarians follow their own rules? This Guardian report from exactly a year ago suggests this story has been kept on the boiler, in reserve. Back then, Hungary wanted her parliamentary immunity stripped. One year later, here we are, with the MEPs looking bad for the vote they just took.

This tweet gives us a little background to Salis’ case —

Let’s talk a little about this… lady, described by some as a… passionaria.
She has racked up 29 complaints and 4 convictions, has been squatting in an Aler house in Milan for many years, accumulating a debt of over €90,000, obviously at the expense of the community.

This woman’s latest adventure was to travel to Hungary a year and a half ago with a group called the ‘Hammer Group’, because these friendly pranksters love to attack their opponents with rubber mallets, obviously well-equipped to avoid recognition.
And on their trip out of town, they already had the number of a Hungarian lawyer in their pockets, as a precaution in case of arrest.

So, as expected, they attacked the bad guys and, since we are not in Italy, the police caught them and put them in jail.
We all know the story by heart because ‘Mrs’ Salis had perfectly orchestrated media support.
Now, thanks to two useless and harmful individuals, she has become a Member of the European Parliament, which I personally find shameful.

But despite all the fanfare, it is not certain that she will obtain parliamentary immunity, because the Hungarian judiciary claims to have a video clearly showing Salis striking someone.
And since the incident took place before the election, the video could block her immunity.
We shall see!
The shame remains!

Translation: The left-wing extremist Ilaria Salis is allegedly a member of the Hammer Gang and was probably involved in the group’s attacks on innocent citizens in Budapest. Now she is protected from criminal prosecution as a member of the European Parliament. And the CDU is ensuring that this remains the case.

Die Linksextremistin Ilaria Salis ist mutmaßlich Mitglied der Hammerbande und war wohl bei den Angriffen der Gruppe auf unbescholtene Bürger in Budapest dabei. Jetzt ist sie als Abgeordnete im EU-Parlament vor Strafverfolgung geschützt. Und die CDU sorgt dafür, dass das auch so… pic.twitter.com/vlufy3t8bU

More narrative is available in this tweet —

Meet Ilaria Salis. In February 2023, she travelled to Budapest with her fellow Antifa goon-squad called Hammerbande.

They went to Budapest with the explicit intention of attacking “fascists”.

Budapest is weighing legal action after MEPs narrowly voted to protect Antifa-linked Italian MEP Ilaria Salis from prosecution.

All being well for the notorious Italian leftist MEP, this means she will not go on trial in Hungary. Although reports are now suggesting that Budapest may take the European Parliament to court over the decision, and that it could be well placed to win if it does so. Attempts are also underway to have Salis prosecuted in Italy, as we reported on Tuesday.

Spanish MEP Adrián Vázquez Lázara, who is no friend of Viktor Orbán’s government, said the Hungarian prime minister could inflict “a major legal defeat in a few months” on the Parliament if he takes the decision to the European Court of Justice.

Lázara, who is rapporteur for the Legal Affairs Committee on the Salis case, described granting immunity to Salis as “a clear violation of the rule of law,” adding: “Orban must be opposed only by respecting the rules, not by violating them as he does.”

Orbán has himself criticised the vote as the latest example of Brussels protecting “its own,” saying:

The Brusselian bureaucrats like to lecture, but the pieces of their rule-of-law puzzle just don’t fit.

Brussels protects its own: Péter Magyar keeps his immunity, Ilaria Salis keeps hers.

He has yet to comment on the possibility of taking Parliament to court.

Even EPP chief Manfred Weber said ahead of the vote that lawmakers should lift Salis’ immunity “because the crime was committed before she became a member of Parliament and the rules are crystal clear” that immunity only covers acts carried out during an MEP’s mandate. Clearly, many of his group’s members disagreed.
