News / Hołownia - a rising star in Polish politics? [94]

I think people assumed his stance.

You mean his voters, of course. The recent poll proves 90% of them demand free abortion.

This is war!!! Polish women again united against their mysogynist enemy!

Hołownia leads a two party coalition called The Third Way/Road.

Here is a placard which exploits the name:

(Going along) the Third Way/Road over women`s dead bodies.

The latest trust ranking:

Szymon Hołownia fell from the leadership position in February and his chances for a quick comeback are decreasing. Currently, 42.8% of people trust the Speaker of the Sejm - this is 5.3 percentage points less. compared to February. This means that in two months he lost as much as 11.6 percentage points. Lack of trust in the leader of Poland 2050 is declared by 43.3% of people in the latest survey. 13.5% have a neutral opinion about him.

That is why he isn`t going to win the presidential elections next year.

Ph.D. Renata Mieńkowska-Norkiene, in her commentary for Onet, primarily points to a clear drop in Szymon Hołownia's ratings, who, in her opinion, paid the price for the row related to projects liberalizing abortion regulations. - He disappointed his progressive voters, who express their opposition to his decisions in the trust ranking. He probably gained favor with conservative voters, but he definitely lost more than he gained. The Hołownia effect is a matter of falling from the position of a great, brilliant Speakerl to the position of such an old grandpa with a mustache - says the sociologist and political scientist.

Language / Game - guess Polish idioms/sayings in direct English translation [1756]

Every question is answered with the word 'tomato'.

Yes!! But what for???

What context?

Need a hint??? Ok, it denotes a negative context. :):):)

Clingy, persistent, viscous?

No, forget this meaning of sticky like glue etc. I mean another meaning. Derived from a noun, to be precise.

In England days of the week are always capitalized.

So are they in Poland. :):) I was talking about soboty aka arcades not Soboty aka Saturdays. hahaha

We call them Ganek (porches) in the U.S.

Ganek is different - it is usually elevated while soboty aren`t.

teachers confiscating student phones? matura

Yes, collecting phones before the exam. The photo was taken about 5 years ago, funny boxes aren`t used anymore - today students simply mustn`t enter the exam hall with any devices like that.

Dach z przypustnicą?

Sorry, no.

Ganek

Sorry, no. Ganek is a roofing over the front door, while here it spreads along the entire wall of the church.

Strzecha

No, it is just covering on the roof.

Let me repeat - I mean the whole construction of a low roof which is attached to the external wall of the church, practically encompassing the whole of it.

Hint - it originated to protect the believers who had to stay outside the church (eg. waiting for or during the mass service ) from adverse weather conditions.

History / History of Polish-Russian relations [186]

We don't hate Russians, we're merely made uncomfortable by them!"

Exactly. The close company of a potential murderer, looter and rapist makes a normal person feel uneasy.
Why wasn`t Poland located by the Goddess in a safer place which Russians don`t threaten with invasion etc ??? E,g, somewhere in Papua and New Guinea?? Or at least in Thailand???

We are fekking Goddess` playground to be Russia`s neighbour. :(:(:(:(

Poles hates the Russians

Actually, it isn`t hate but aversion or relactunce which was polled.

if it is in fact stronger than in Ukraine - a country under Russian attack.

We don`t speak Russian like many Ukrainians do. :):):)

Wide is the Polish heart..

Yes, it is. But it gets narrow for imperialists who feed on conquest like Russians do. Simple.

If Russia will ever attack Poland, then I will donate $1M to some

When imperial Russians vow they won`t attack Poland, it means they will. Poles and Polesses have known the lying nature of imperial Russians not for years or even decades, but centuries.

Of course Russia will attack Poland after Poland comes to aid the Baltics attacked by Russia first. It is clear as daylight.

News / The Political Circus of Poland [309]

PiS President Duda and pro-democratic Prime Minister Tusk were united by President Biden who used a trick aimed at strengthening the NATO alliance.

"By inviting two of the most important people from the two dominant political camps in Poland, which is unusual in terms of protocol, Biden used a trick that previous presidents had already used: in this way he was able to show that the security of the Alliance also in Poland must take priority over partisan disputes. "- emphasized the portal, while noting that "for their part, Duda and Tusk tried to demonstrate unity."

Among the missiles, 800 long range JASSMs.

This means that if Russians try to attack critical infrastructure in Poland, the Polish answer will be fast and devastating - all Russian oil facilities located 800 km from the Polish border will be taken out. Where will Russians earn their income from then?

After top Polish leaders` visit to the US for the 25th anniversary of NATO accession, new purchase plans have been announced. 1700 missiles and nearly 100 Apache choppers.. Amasing!!

Among the missiles, 800 long range JASSMs.

tass.com/world/1759077

MOSCOW, March 13. /TASS/. Poland is set to buy JASSM air-to-ground missiles from the US that have the potential to reach targets inside Russia, former Polish Armed Forces Commander-in-Chief General Miroslaw Rozanski said in an interview with the news website Gazeta.pl.

"I see the greatest added value in JASSM missile systems with extended range," he said in comments on a recent visit by Polish President Andrzej Duda and Prime Minister Donald Tusk to Washington. "Our planes stationed in Laska, if equipped with these missiles, will need to fly no further than the Vistula to strike targets inside Belarus and Russia."


PS. The Polish army already possesses a few dozen JASSMs.

News / Dodgy PRL-holdover judiciary finally reformed [420]

PIS was trying to suppress independent judges and take over the whole judiciary for themselves so that they could steal, get corrupted and cause accidents without any legal consequences.

Not only accidents. Also naked walks in city centres.

Prosecutor General Adam Bodnar filed an appeal against the decision of the deputy disciplinary attorney to discontinue the proceedings conducted against the prosecutor of the District Prosecutor's Office in Świdnica, Maciej W., who walked naked around one of the housing estates in 2021. The man was reinstated to his official duties, but the prosecutor general wants the case to be reconsidered in disciplinary proceedings.

This excerpt means that PiS tried to sweep the matter under the carpet coz the streaking performer had been nominated by PiS earlier on but after the change of power, the new prosecutors are going to look into the matter again. Good!

News / SHOULD POLAND HAVE NUKES?? [154]

Help Poland acquire atomic weapons (or at least don't put any obstacles to her acquiring them).

Yes, quite an attractive idea to have them.
But reality is brutal - Poland as a democracy anchored in Central Europe, NATO and the EU so it can`t break the non-proliferation treaty. If we do, we will be treated as North Korea. Poles and Polesses won`t bear it.

Can I suggest a solution which perfectly suits your style of thinking from another post of yours?? When Belarus led by mad Lukashenka threatens or even attacks Poland, Polish troops should immediately answer with a short invasion aimed at capturing Russian nukes stored in Belarus. Having them, we will be safe at last.

How do you like my idea which in fact is yours???
