The Polish lower house of parliament (Sejm) decided to lift Zbigniew Ziobro's immunity and forcibly bring him before the Pegasus investigative committee. The PiS MP was summoned for questioning several times.

Rafał Trzaskowski won the KO primary election for the President of #Poland. He received 74.75% of the votes. In practice, this may mean the strongest candidate for the next #President (because PiS - as it is unofficially said - wants to put forward Karol Nawrocki).

Former leader of the populist Palikot Movement #ruchpalikota, Janusz #Palikot, has just lost his 15th-century townhouse in Lublin's Old Town after his alcohol business investment debacle and arrest. It was seized for debt by a loan company from #Poznan. #Poland #populism #politics

The National Electoral Commission (PKW) rejected Law and Justice's (PiS) 2024 financial report due to alleged illegal financial benefits by its electoral committee. PiS may lose public funding for three years, amounting to over 75 million PLN. #poland #politics #lawandjustice #party

NIK notified prosecutors of ex-Minister Kamil Bortniczuk's (PIS) alleged misuse of power in approving PLN 186M funding for a Football Assoc. project not meeting criteria. Bortniczuk denies wrongdoing. In January, the decision was annulled. The project was estimated at PLN 400M. #poland #politics

Łukasz Rzepecki, advisor to President Andrzej Duda, said he believes PiS, PSL, and Confederation can agree on a single center-right candidate for the presidential election. He added that such a candidate, focused on Polish interests, would undoubtedly win. #politics #poland #presidentelection

The right accuses Radek Sikorski's wife of not speaking Polish as a potential First Lady. The Civic Coalition counters, saying she might not, but at least she’ll speak English, unlike the current First Lady, who has remained silent for years. It’s a point that’s hard to argue with. #poland #politics

S. Tyszka of Confederation criticized Tusk, claiming he is ignored by Western leaders and relied "childishly" on Scholz's phone. He stressed Poland's key role in aiding Ukraine and argued it must avoid involvement in the Russia-Ukraine war, saying only Mentzen as president could ensure this. #poland

Super! Miło, że Pana widzę w tej nie "elonomusk-owej" przestrzeni :) Zapraszam do siebie na polską politykę po angielsku! PS. Nawet mieliśmy okazję porozmawiać już w moim internetowym programie :)

"PM Donald Tusk's poll clearly reflects the mood. On Friday, we’ll win the primaries. In May, we’ll triumph together," said Sikorski, referring to an online poll published by the PM. The poll, on Civic Coalition primaries for next year's presidential candidate, shows Sikorski in the lead. #politics

The chart compares October and November poll results for Polish #political #parties. @pisorgpl.bsky.social leads with 34.3%, up from 31.4%. KO rose slightly to 32.32%. Konfederacja remains stable at 13.51%. Trzecia Droga and Nowa Lewica saw declines, dropping to 7.68% and 5.82%, respectively.

Czarnecki, former rector of Collegium Humanum, was released after paying 2 million PLN bail. He was subjected to bans and police supervision. Rector arrest is the result of the MBA diploma trade scandal. The scandal heavily burdens PiS and selected politicians from other parties. #politics #poland

According to Radek Sikorski, PiS is desperate to maintain the last bridgehead, which is the Presidential Palace. As the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs points out, this is why KO needs a candidate who will be able to combine "both liberal and conservative sensibilities". #poland #politics

According to the former president of Poland, it is not time for a woman president. Political realities indicate that a woman currently has little chance of winning the presidential elections in Poland. #kwasniewski #presidentofpoland #politics #poland

The arrest of the mayor of Wrocław by the CBA in the Collegium Humanum affair may be the beginning of problems for the Civic Coalition (KO). But his arrest also destroys the @pisorgpl.bsky.social narrative about political prisoners of Donald Tusk's "regime". #poland #politics #polandpolitics

Law and Justice has not yet announced its candidate for the presidential election. But pollsters indicate that the candidate may not be former Minister of Education Przemysław Czarnek, but neither may it be IPN Chief Karol Nawrocki. Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki may be the candidate.

Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said that his rival for the Polish presidency (Rafał Trzaskowski) was OK in 2020. But now we need someone who can cope better with the new political realities. It is the only country in the world that has an attacker and an attacker next to each other.
