News / R. Trzaskowski, current mayor of Warsaw, future President of Poland [354]

Second in the race, Mr Sikorski, has a big negative electorate.

Despite this fact, Sikorski is rocking the boat in the party to be nominated as a candidate.
That is why Mr Honourable Prime Minister Reverend Donald Holy Tusk has announced internal ballot for the party members.

Here is an opinion by a KO politician I fully agree with:

I have great respect for Radek Sikorski. We are all glad that he returned to Polish politics a year ago and is a really big reinforcement of our government. However, we have been cooperating with Rafał Trzaskowski in a large group for five years and we have a deep sense that we have to finish what we started in 2020.

- With great respect for Radek Sikorski, I believe that the best solution for the Civic Coalition, but above all for Poland, is to choose a person who has been very consistently preparing for the role of the president of Poland for five years.


On Saturday, many other KO politicians already declared on social media who they would vote for.

Food / Regional products from Poland with EU certificates and without [18]

Exactly.

Another EU certified product comes from the city of Poznań. I must unproudly admit I have never tried it. :):):

St. Martin's croissants were invented in 19th century to celebrate St Martin`s Day which falls on 11 Nov.

The recipe for them is not simple. Yeast puff pastry is used for baking, which is the kind that after cooling must be rolled out with butter or margarine. The croissants are stuffed with white poppy seeds mixed with orange peel, nuts, almonds and marzipan. The whole thing is covered with icing.

The 140-year-old pastry quickly gained popularity. First in Poznań and the region, and then throughout Poland. It can be bought in confectioneries, shops and supermarkets. However, only a small number of them are real St. Martin's croissants. In 2008, the croissant was recognized as a "Product with Protected Designation of Origin in the European Union". "A special certificate guaranteeing compliance with the traditional recipe is held by 94 confectioneries in Poland" - informs the portal poznań.pl.

Food / Healthy polish food? [143]

if you cut out the sausage and bacon used in them

Don`t be stupid. Without those ingredients I would have to consume such soup in dozen portions a day to provide me with necessary calories to survive winter.

Life / Polish patriotic music! [44]

Polish rock groups also create patriotic music

A newer song from 2000s by Horytnica, a great group which deals with historical topics.
They also committed a song about their love for Poland.

Amazing music and inspiring lyrics

My beloved Poland, my only homeland,
your proud white and red colors,
I live for you, you will always last for me.

Food / Healthy polish food? [143]

salt and saturated fat

Possible but you forgot to add that`s the result of living in Polish climate for centuries. Poles and Polesses used salt as a preservative in hot weather and fat as calorie provider in cold weather. The Irish didn`t have to worry about winters.

make a few other adjustments.

Exactly. Change everything and make Irish soup in result. hahaha buhahahaha

Life / Custom plates in Poland [103]

will not function

I am afraid so, too.
But, on second thoughts.............

digit resembling a letter is chosen 4=A,

I have never associated 4 with A.

However, how about killing old habits??? If someone starts using it, then the followers will quickly imitate.

Life / Polish patriotic music! [44]

Polish rock groups also create patriotic music when they sing about their life issues.

This song by IRA from 1990s could be my autobiography in 1990s except a few things like long hair, elder ladies or smoking pot:



I could be in the USA right now
Earning big bucks by the sweat of my brow
Entertaining old ladies and having a credit card
But no, no, no, I'm not running away
From here!
I like wearing shoes with a big toe
My long hair is something I like
I like drinking beer and smoking joints
But no, I'm not running away from here

My home is these grey streets
My home is the line for work
My home is those sad people
My home is you and me

This is my home!

Food / Russia vs Poland Vodka war [76]

I prefer potato vodka to rye vodka.

Wow! I have always admired people who are able to notice such differences. My taste buds are quite basic when it comes to alcohol. I would never make a decent wine taster, for example.

Kill them all.

Mission Impossible 5, darling!

once a cute baby. .

Herod tried to kill em all but to no avail. Modern Israelis will also fail. New avengers of Palestinian misery are being born all the time. They will destroy sinful Israel one day. Just like Jesus destroyed the kingdom of sin on earth 2000 years ago!! Ha!!!

Food / Best hypermarket to shop for foods in Poland? [50]

100% Polish-owned

Dino, which has been expanding rapidly lately. Over 2000 outlets.

if PEWEX was actually Polish-owned.

Yes, in communist times it was owned by the state coz communists needed hard currency.
