Demonstrations in Poland in defence of democracy. [2554]
president
Since when is cat Harry a North American? Secondly all the BS alleging a rift between the first couple is so much tabloid hocum. Mrs Wałęsa lived in Gdańsk the whole time, but you never criticised that. Pani Duda is the be praised for refusing to be needled or pressured into speaking out on poltiical issues. That is her sovereign choice. Obama doesn't go everywhere with the Mrs, so why should Duda?
Polish pro-democracy
All the lofty, high-sounding, pompous slogans notwithstanding, the self-styled pro-democracy movement exist for only one reason: to serve the designs and profit motive of foreign interest groups and their Polish toadies who receive hefty kickbacks for betraying their own country.
Their toadies were also active in the Sejm today. Proceedings there turned into a shouting match with the virulent anti-government opposition trying to drown out speakers ahead of a vote to replace an outgoing Constitutional Tribunal judge. In an attempt to block the election of PiS-nominated Zbigniew Jędrzejewski, opposition MPs conspired to remove their voting cards to prevent the necessary quorum. But the plot backfired when several MPs belonging to the small Kukiz'15 party voted for Jędrzejewski who was therefore elected. One Kukiz'15 MP voted for an absent colleague - a serious offense that led to her removal from the party's parliamentary club. Veteran anti-communist activist Kornel Morawiecki, the MP for whom she had voted, voluntarily resigned.
