Here comes a portion of satirical political humor about **XXL parliaments** and *salary increases* - of course with a wink and fictitious exaggerations. 😄🏛️ 

### **The Bundestag as a "never-ending buffet"**  

*"200 seats? Pah! We now have *800 MPs* ... and a *second plenary hall* just for looking for the light switch. Efficiency!* 💡🔍  

**Minutes of the meeting:**  

– *ITEM 1:* **“How do we finance the 17th new office building?”**  

– *Resolution:* **“Simply increase the allowances – the rents practically pay themselves!”** 💸📈  

---

### **Council of Europe logic:**  

*“We need *more meetings* in *more expensive cities* … to talk about *cost savings*. *Priorities!*”* 🌍✈️  

**Secret resolution 2023:**  

*“Art. 1:* The air in Brussels/Strasbourg must now be *regulated by parliament* - *7€ per breath* for non-MPs."* 💨💶  

---

### **Salary increase 2.0:**  

*"The *diet-o-meter* automatically increases every time someone says *'austerity'. Current record: *3 increases per press release.*"* 📰🚀  

---

### **Architectural masterpiece:**  

*"The Bundestag is now being *expanded horizontally* ... to make room for the new seats. *Side effect:* Berlin TV tower is now only *'Extension No. 5'*."* 🗼🏗️  

---

### **People-friendly dilemma:**  

*"Citizens: *Why do you need 700 representatives?*  

Politicians: *So that every German has *1.5 representatives* - math!*  

Citizens: *And the allowances?*  

Politicians: *Inflation... the *kebab* costs more too!*"* 🥙📊  

---

**Disclaimer:** *All fictitious - real politicians probably *only* work for the people... and every now and then to keep the coffee machines going.* ☕🇪🇺
