The case of Filip Turk and inappropriate contributions
Gabriela Sedláčková, the newly elected member of parliament for Motoristy sebe and Turk’s former assistant, received the password to Turk’s Facebook in the past in order to delete inappropriate posts. A few days later, journalist Vojtěch Dobeš claimed to be the author of the print screens. He handed over his digital archive with previously unpublished materials to the police.

Candlestick with Nazi symbols
Just before the start of the Euro elections, it became clear that the Turk collects objects with Nazi symbols. He owns, for example, a candlestick with a swastika or a dagger with the SS symbol. A photo from 2013 also appeared in the media, in which he has his right hand raised in a gesture that is strikingly reminiscent of the Nazi salute. Inclinations towards neo-Nazism could also be read in his activities on social networks. Due to the great response, he finally canceled his participation in the last pre-election debates. Tim Turk’s controversial actions are far from over.
Controversial book
He also participated in the publication of the book Parasites in Us, which revels in conspiracy theories about the origin of various diseases and recommends dangerous medical procedures, including the fact that drinking sava helps children with autism. During the pre-election debate with Danuša Nerudová, he tried to explain that his mother Eleni and sister Tereza dealt with these topics and he had little to do with it.
