A demonstration organized by the group "Million Moments for Democracy" in Prague, Czechia in support of democracy and against the shocking actions of the current government. Around 250,000 people attended. Such a large number of people has gathered only three times in the entire history of the country.
The leader of the group said into the microphone that if the government tries to implement any of their proposals, they’ll see something they’ve never seen before.

@plsik Who voted #Babis in?

@TimFinnerty Babiš is a textbook populist, so he was voted for by people who don’t think much about the consequences or the feasibility of his promises. And by people for whom the world is too complicated, and who need someone to explain it to them and promise them protection. He is also supported by fossil fuel oligarchs like Tykač and Křetinský. About 33% of voters voted for him. Often seniors.
