The newest spot by the former ruling party PiS. Based on the Red Riding Hood fairy tale.
First, as an opposition leader, Tusk is promising radical pay rise for all state employees. (parody of a bad wolf).
Later you can see him as Prime Minister who helplessly spreads his hands and refuses to give pay rise.
Finally, the current opposition leader, former Prime Minister Kaczyński says: Ruling isn`t a fairy tale. Ruling is responsibility. This government is like a fairy tale. But Poles deserve more!!!
hahahahahahaha

Polish MP finds provocative remarks costly By Jan Cienski in Warsaw Financial Times January 21 2009 Poland has at least temporarily lost its political clown prince, MP Janusz Palikot, who horrified and amused Poles with his provocative news conferences and his inflammatory blog, but who performed useful work as the head of a parliamentary commission aimed at slashing the red tape constricting the country's economy. Mr Palikot resigned on Tuesday as head of the commission after causing yet another scandal that the ruling Civic Platform party could not ignore. In recent days he had accused Grazyna Gesicka, the former minister of regional development, of politically "prostituting herself" for questioning the government's statistics in applying for EU funds. More seriously, he suggested that Jaroslaw Kaczynski, the head of the right-wing opposition Law and Justice party, may be gay. Those were the latest in a long series of provocations which had turned the floppy-haired Mr Palikot into one of Poland's most recognisable politicians. Earlier he had wondered whether Lech Kaczynski, the president and twin brother of the opposition leader, had a problem with alcohol. He had also held a news conference during which he waved around a pistol and a vibrator, accusing police of rape. His outbursts had been tolerated because of his work on the commission. The former liquor magnate attacked Poland's many ridiculous laws and regulations with a vengeance, and was strongly supported by business. Donald Tusk, the prime minister, has made battling red tape one of the centrepieces of his government, and Mr Palikot was the project's most visible face. In its first year the commission pushed through many changes in tax law that made it more difficult for tax authorities to needlessly harass business, and automatically converted farmland within city boundaries into building land. But a visibly angry Mr Tusk had evidently had enough of the problems generated by Mr Palikot. The chastened MP, who will now be the deputy head of the commission, told reporters on Tuesday that giving up his post, "Made me feel like I was dying." republika.pl/blog_sq_962560/1927051/tr/palikot.jpg     |

The news which got hot in the world WARSAW, Poland – Poland's most powerful politician has been spotted reading a book about cats during a session of parliament. Jaroslaw Kaczynski, leader of the country's ruling party, seemed fully absorbed in the small handbook, "Atlas of Cats," on Friday, during a session seen as a key test of Poland's young democracy. Lawmakers are to debate controversial changes to the country's justice system, which his Law and Justice party says are needed to reform a broken system but which the European Union sees as a violation of the separation of powers. Kaczynski, 68, is known as a cat lover, having had cats of his own over the years and helping strays. The trait has somewhat softened the image of a man known for his tough political drive. www.foxnews.com/world/2017/11/24/polands-kaczynski-reads-book-about-cats-in-parliament.html     |

My reaction: so what? I think it's healthy to have some relief from the pressures of work and decision making by taking a "light" reading break. It actually keeps one's mind fresh! The press is always looking for some way to criticize and ridicule! |

Fallen liberal idol sets up new party “Now!”
km/asz 17.11.2018, 17:27
The former leader and founder of the Modern Party Ryszard Petru is setting up a new party, “Now!”. Mr Petru was deposed as leader of the Modern Party last year and left it in May of this year.
Speaking at the press conference announcing the launch of the new party held in the renovated former cinema hall “Magic” in Warsaw Mr Petru argued that there was a need for a new party that would concentrate on helping business and social progress. He announced that the party would hold its inaugural convention on 9 December.
Asked about his attitude towards the present liberal opposition , the Civic Coalition (KO) Mr Petru said that it was not enough to just oppose the ruling Law and Justice (PiS) but said that his party would not be attacking other opposition parties, was open to cooperation with them and expected they would not attack the new party he is forming.
Those with long memories may recall that there was a prominent magazine in Great Britain launched by the entrepreneur James Goldsmith called “Now!”. The magazine was on the market for two years between 1979 and 1981 before it was wound up. It remains to be seen if Mr Petru can create magic that will make his “Now!” last longer than that ill-fated venture.
The Petru story
Ryszard Petru was for years an aide to Leszek Balcerowicz, the twice Finance minister and former leader of the Freedom Union, a party that was influential in Polish politics in the 1990s. Mr Petru went on to have a successful career in the banking sector. He engaged fully in politics in 2015 when he created the “Modern Party” in opposition to both the governing Civic Platform (PO) and PiS.
Modern under Petru at first was highly critical of the PO for failing to pursue liberal economic policies. However, once PiS came into power the two parties , though rivals, came closer together in opposition to the new government.
The turning point for Ryszard Petru and his party came in 2016. Together with the PO it engaged in a parliamentary protest against the government occupying the debating chamber. However, at a key stage of the protest over the New Year it was revealed by the press that Mr Petru went on holiday with his parliamentary colleague and now life partner, Joanna Schmidt. Both the Modern Party politicians were married at the time, though not to each other.
The position of both Mr Petru and his party went into free fall in opinion polls and he was deposed as leader in late autumn of 2017. Together with two other Modern Party MPs he left the party in May 2018 and announced he would be creating a new party after the local government elections were over.
His previous party is now in coalition with the PO in the Civic Coalition (KO). Mr Petru’s new party, when it actually gets going, may face the same problem as other small parties such as the European Democrats party, created by some MPs who left the PO in 2016. If it fails to register electoral support it will not be attractive to the KO and will wither on the vine.
Polish political history is strewn with the failures of break-away parties.There are of course exceptions to that rule. Both the PO and PiS were once effectively break-aways from larger and better established political entities.

To stop hate speech in Poland, politicians started a make-up campaign. Funny. Reminds me of peace treaty established between rival team soccer fans after the death of JPII. It didn`t last longer than 6 months.
