Truthful as Tusk

it's old news I know, but..

in July in a public speech in Szczecin Donald Tusk claimed that in fact the 500+ programme was the idea of his party and that Ewa Kopacz was working on introducing it:

the thing is Ewa Kopacz publicly stated that: "there is no money for the 500+ programme and there won't be" (she said the same thing as Jacek Rostowski former PO finance minister: polskatimes.pl/jacek-rostowski-pieniedzy-na-realizacje-obietnic-pis-nie-ma-i-nie-bedzie-video/ar/9019491

also Marek Sawicki (the agriculture minister in the PO-PSL government) stated that he doesn't remember any plans to introduce anything similar to 500+ in the times of Ewa Kopacz: tvp.info/54727941/premier-kopacz-byly-proponowane-takie-rozwiazania-jak-500-plus-sawicki-nie-przypominam-sobie

Tusk himself said in 2019 that he doesn't regret that his government didn't introduce 500+ :

what you stated by the above is just nonsense - maybe you perceive the service industry gone because you work in tourism (and foreign at that) - if that's the case it is just your narrow personal perspective

edit: ok - you're right actually - i wasn't reading carefully - you are probably right about the EU money and Polish boom

about half a million of Polish children missed on eating a lunch every day before 500+ was started - also the money that was given to people went straight into the market causing a virtual economic boom
