EU court has exceeded its jurisdiction in its ruling - dep speaker

A senior member of the ruling party Law and Justice has warned "things could end badly for the EU" after the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) ruled on Wednesday that the re-allocation of judges was a threat to Poland's judicial independence. The comments from Ryszard Terlecki, who is deputy speaker of the Sejm (lower house of parliament), come a few weeks after he suggested that Poland may leave the EU owing to what he considers to be the unjustified interference by Brussels in Poland's judicial system.
