why not - they can - althought the alternatives would be suboptimal to them - they can always choose to abstain too (they still have choice) - it's like a choice in the supermarket - you would like to buy strawberry buttermilk but you can only find strawberry yoghurt and plain buttermilk (you can always choose not to buy either) - you can't always have it all

or another analogy - I would like the leftist parties in Poland (Lewica and PiS) to join forces (let's say after PiS abandons more extreme religiously guided policies and Lewica abandons their radical pro-European stance) - so what?: they are not ready or willing to (despite people like Rafał Woś calling for it)

you know: I would like to vote for the Republican party - how can I vote for Republicans in Poland? - sometimes you can't have all you wish for

edit: however there is kind of a solution to your problem - democratic at that - the citizen X can campaign for another referendum on the subject with exactly the questions that they deem necessary to achieve their dreemed outcome - who knows maybe there are enough people in the country who would support their (citizen's X) quest

it's more of a philosophical question - the true question will emerge when there is a plan to centralize the EU will go into voting in the Europarliament on 25th of November which abolishes the right of member states to veto new legal proposals and how the new government (most probably under Tusk) will to react

sorry I don't understand what you mean :) - in my scenario you are 88 years old and have no teeth - how do you like that :P

you don't understand me, but you are justified to be honest - I don't care about women's retirement age tbh (so I don't mind either keeping it the way it is now or raising it) - my 'prayer' was just a figure of speech


I never said that - I said the question is bright and clear - and if the referendum was valid and people voted NO the government would be legally bound not to ever raise the retirement age in any form (or until another referendum)

News / Referendum to decide about exotic immigrants in Poland [549]

I hope you realize the retirement age for men IS 65

anyway if the referendum on that particular question was passed (I mean people voted NO) there should be no raising of retirement age in any form - isn't it clear for you

to me the question was bright and clear - btw equalising retirement ages in Poland means either raising or lowering of retirement age for a part of the population - there is no third way about it

so you are among those few women who are for the equalising of the retirement age? I pray that your wish should be granted to you

why be specific? please explain


if my memory serves me correctly in the referendum concerning joining the EU the question was simple "Are you for Poland joining the EU" - noone has asked about hidden cost of the joining that affected many small business and some sectors of the agriculture

ok, let's debate - what is so outrageous about asking people if they support raising of the retirement age?

News / Polish Parliamentary Elections 2023 [933]


they need to give up on those voters actually at least until those voters hit some kind of hard bottom thanks to 'business-friendly' policies of PO and company - or rather give up on those voters thoroughly because when they taste 'liberal' econimic policies they will turn to Lewica

the illegal incedents of asking people if they want the referendum sheet by numerous members of electoral committees in bigger cities violated the secrecy in the same manner - how about that?

the voters rejected the referendum because opposition parties and opposition media told them to and because of the herd instinct, if you want to know my opinion

yes, I have - I'm also pretty sure some people who are living under an American rock might be interested

please explain why they were a joke, could you?

News / Referendum to decide about exotic immigrants in Poland [549]


yeah the referendum was about retirement age, government being able to selling state-owned companies, and letting in illegal immigrants according to Brussel's demands - if you find these topics unimportant then I congratulate you (you must have more important political issues on your mind then)

it's demonizing PiS, simples (a bandit with a knife - as if PiS threatens anyone apart from a narrow elite that wants to feed on the poor)

your arrogant sarcasm only speaks about you - the referendum issues were important to about 40 per cent of those eligible to vote - some of the questions in the referendum were a nail to the coffin of PO in 2015 elections (the retirement age)

let's see if they will be able to overturn the presidential veto

I actually agree

if PiS has about 42 per cent vote (which is doubtful tbh) they are going to have a majority in Sejm - FYI

according to IPSOS exit poll roughly the same percentage of men and women voted for PiS - FYI

News / Polish Parliamentary Elections 2023 [933]


I think it can be even bigger in Poland as (as I previously said) about 20 per cent of voters approached by IPSOS pollsters refused to answer the poll

I heard on TV that 20 per cent of the approached voters refused to answer the poll

you are not following European politics - if PO and company are able to form a government Europe will probably turn into a federation and then you will NEED to learn about European politics (most probably the hard way)

it is an exit polls by IPSOS - from what I read IPSOS said there is about 2 per cent margin of uncertainty with their exit polls
