All photos from reliable sources already, Wulky.

Anyway, great to hear that yesterday's brownshirt march wasn't much of a success.

The camera doesn't lie Wulky, unlike yourself. Fancy some more photos of ONR neo-nazis? The internet has hundreds of them.

Don't be silly. Why would anyone remotely care about or trust for even one second what images neo-nazis put on their own website or even want to look at such a site. Here's another picture of them in their silly uniforms.

No chance for mistake here, someone deliberately photoshopped it.

Nope, Wulky. The photo is genuine and is one of many such.

For anyone fooled by jon - those are not neo-Nazis, Nazi, not even fascist.

See the photo in post #2804. Perhaps they're wearing uniforms and making Hitler salutes by mistake...

Fire Waszczykowski and Macierewicz

Kaczynski is too politically weak to do that.

the counterprotest is founded by Soros organisations

It isn't 'founded' or even funded by anyone. Just some local residents who don't like neo-nazis marching through town.

people such as Ms.Coulter, the Bell curve author, Murray etc. is that the latter are merely freeing up the airwaves in order to polute OUR space with their pestilent garbage!!

Indeed. It's quite deliberate. Intended, focused, planned hatred, and they whine when people say no.

Fortunately, there were very few of them and more local residents saying no.

Don't be silly Wulky. It isn't an Antifa march, and the counterprotest is organised by ordinary citizens. Interesting to know that you're sympathetic to neo-nazis. Must be quite confusing for you as an immigrant.

Crackpots certainly. Harmless no. Once those people are allowed to have their marches through the city centre with their brown shirted uniforms and Hitler salutes it's a bad step.

The veterans and pensioners thing outside the Sejm is unconnected.

The roles are a little different, however some Polish soldiers have a role as a Przeszkolony Medyk.

There's going to be a neo-nazi march today in Warsaw at 5pm. A nuisance because I have to go to the station around then and there will be a lot of disruption - that particular group have a long history of violence. The only positive side of this is that plenty of decent residents of Warsaw are expected to come out and oppose them.

Admitting msitakes

They didn't admit their mistakes - they just cynically backtracked as usual.

mere two maverick polls

Neither 'mere' nor 'maverick'. Great that the latest polls are showing good news. This is becoming something of a pattern. Great also that the PiS junta is crumbling fast.

More good news, more U turns by the failing PiS junta. In this case, they've backtracked on a particularly unpopular piece of gerrymandering.

Looks like the PiS junta's disastrous decision to damage Bialowieza is now escalating:

The EU warned Poland on Thursday (27 April) it may take legal action to stop logging in a UNESCO World Heritage forest, risking a new clash with Warsaw's right-wing government.

What matters is who is winning, and PO are doing just that.

Basically yes. Political alliances change fast in Poland and as the PiS junta collapses we can expect a lot of opposition to them continuing. As last time, they sneaked in on a low turnout, and last time of course the nation came together to get them out.

if you ask Poles, more of them say they support PO than any other party

Very good news, and a logical effect of the behaviour of the PiS junta.

Nobody really expects them to continue in their current unsustainable form.

Poland, like the US, has been duped into the two party system

Nathans, Poland does not have a two party system. None of the current parties in parliament (except PSL) are very well-established or have much history.

All have various camps and all have had and will have splits.

TVP1's Wiadomości

That 'news' programme is actually so much of a comedy now that even people who were once sympathetic to the PiS junta laugh at how crass the propaganda is.

whether Kaczyński has the guts to deal with Macierewicz or not. The scandal that's surroundin

The big question is entirely about how the loose cannon would retaliate. Two psychologically disturbed individuals with a poor concept of personal boundaries and a lot of 'information' about each other.

It could get interesting, but above all, it could very easily bring down the current unstable PiS junta...

"very quick end"

The end of the beginning was a long while ago. We've now already passed the beginning of the end and for the doomed PiS junta the endgame is now starting.

All their most fervent (and febrile) supporters can manage is incoherent rants about the past like the post immediately above this one. That's all they've got - the past to dwell on, while everyone else gets on with life.

"What kind of sick fvkkers are against charities that collect money to treat sick children?"

The PiS junta of course, declaring war on all that is decent in Poland.

"shadowy" Po?

Very much in the public domain, independent and transparent.

So that's a no, Po, not shadowy at all...

And Platforma are currently higher in the polls than the disreputable PiS junta. Good news.
