Trashkowski and PO fools want to cut infrastructure projects in a middle of a economic depression. Their neo-liberal tendencies for austerity can't help keep coming out . And some special people on this forum think their vote will increase? lolzo Once PiS starts the cutting kielbasa scare campaign, trashkowski (who looks like a sleazy character you would see running a high end gogo bar in warsaw) will fall back to the levels of Botox lady.

The poles who wrote the constitution did not fathom that the opposition would go against democracy and deny an election , so unless senat marzałek is pressured out of his becoming president delusions, we might not have an election till Autumn. PO playing with democracy or might lose them votes. Hopefully Kaczynski comes down on them with an iron fist. If the senate needs to be stormed so be it.

So how long does it take the senate approve legislation for an election? its not rocket science. All I have seen is delaying tactics and days off, with lame denials from PO posels "oh i'm not in the senate" The fact is PO does not want an election in late june or early July because being bereft of actual policy ideas, they are awaiting disaster to befall duda, not self aware enough that the same could happen to their candidiate the longer this farce drags on. So if its all above PO board delph when will the senate approve legislation and what date?

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]

if people can riot during a pandemic in usa , poland can surely hold an election with optional postal voting. The election is overdue , how is that awkward, except deep down PO and their supporters know they will lose. Hence the pathetic anti democratic delaying. Don't be afraid You will have to put your head on the chopping block sooner or later.

The article delph posted said there was a new ustawa from the sejm that replaced it. @Jon your parties policies remind me of labour and the total opposition against brexit, delay, dither and hold up democracy. till something snapped. And they got the worst possible result beyond their imagination. Be carefull and pray for Your parties sake the same does not occur here.

Well the PKW document has been published, now the Marszałek has two weeks to call new election within 60 days. As i predicted Total Opozyc-chuja has already splintered to shambles again. Spokesperson of Lewica says elections should be held as soon as possible. Infighting within PO like with labour during brexit. Significant faction in PO wants election in Late June/July. Good times. Lets see what antidemocratic dither and delay measures the other factions of PO try to pull out of their neo-liberal hats.

As a follower of aviation I agree with you about Radom. Pettiness in not letting PO state authorities have a share in expanding Modlin as LCC and charter airport.

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]

Really? Trashkowski says it will be stopped if he gets elected. Funny how any project that helps Poland wean itself of dependence of Russia is opposed by PO.. I wonder why.. hence why you have anti polish russia boosters like delph calling it a white elephant.

national interest and security. Don't be so deliberately obtuse.

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]

If I am a Pis troll you are a PO troll. What debt?, the budget was in surplus before the pandemic. Zero security interest?, just a few posts above you said the project was good and as soon as it is pointed out PO support ending it like a Pavlovian response in a dog u change your tune. Why should we ask russia's permision whenver we want to get our ship in poland. Social welfare is shocking? I know you Yanks are happy to have a significant number of your population living in abject poverty , without access to healthcare and proper government support and think that is appropriate for Poland. News flash buddy, Poles don't accept your limited government Reagenesque BS and structural inequality. Anyway that is one of the many reasons your sh*thole country is burning to the ground.

WRONG. From the start it was always envisaged that also it would help those families on the poverty line or the working class. and for the millions of families that can take buy extra clothes, take the children on a vacation or buy a computer for the first time, it has been a life saver Hence PiS popularity, yet the heartless anti polish neo-liberals on this forum see this as a disaster, waste of money and giving free stuff to stupid people. I'm sure as a woman with maternal instincts you can see these sort of views are immoral.

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]


As I said You PolAms don't understand how Goverment should work. In australia we we have a 100 percent job subsidy scheme and doubled our unemployment benefits for six months. And thats from a conservative goverment. No one starves to death. There are no protests against restrictions. The goverment is gradually bringing thing back to normal following medical advice because of the security goverment welfare provides. The debt? The interest rate on international money markets is less than inflation. There won't be a problem to pay it back over many years and the same applies to Poland too.

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]


Progress.. You sound like a PolAm as well. Only that culture uses the term 'handouts' UK and Aus use 'benefits'. Why not? because we can't afford it? The world has gone back to Keynesian stimulus. We should be doing what spain just did.

Will also massively boost consumption and the economy.

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]


Depends on the return of investment. If you provide welfare to people who previously had no purchasing capacity, most of the money would flow back into the economy. A whole new class of consumers who were previously below the poverty line. That Polands GDP growth have been surprisingly high since 500+ is no coincidence.

as for neolib mafketis inane comments, he is proof of spikes theory that PO voters can vote for Konfederats, as they get hardons about small government and taking benefits from the poor. But also demonstrates that we can't trust PO not to slash the social and health spending as there are many people like mafketis in the party.Cheating the goverment out of tax, using the goverment built highways and complaining about handouts to other people.

Good news! now the people can have their say. @polamkrakow please confirm we have a bet/wager of 50USD. You for Traszkowski and me for Duda in the second round. And that you will uphold your end of the bargain as a man of honour.

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]

I am considering voting for Hołownia in the first round, to support independent voices. If Hołownia makes it to the second round I am unsure on the outcome. , so I suggest the bet should be rendered null and void. But the payout odds on that occurring would be quite high :)

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]

You should show slightly more respect to the President of Poland as a citizen. Kacynski might be pulling Dudas strings but still better than the alternative. Trashkowski has so many Oligarch and ex SB/WSI fists so far up his a**, that they control his facial features.

Your Whataboutism does not go very far, especially as you can only list that one example, over and over again, when during PO's rule there are hundreds of dodgy events, mysterious deaths and unbelievable scandals

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]

Oh the pious PO driving old skodas! cry me a river mate! You don't think the head of the presidential dept should have a proper car? Oh our hero health minister gave evidence today that he took no decisions at the institute that ordered the medical supplies. So unless your grubby mob can prove otherwise its all just unproven conjecture. Marowiecki was right just a bunch of flies buzzing around making noise. Since we speculating Tusk's Son working at OLT whilst Amber Gold stole 600 million off the elderly of Poland was coincidental wasin't it? Since the PO Gdansk Scum, ex SB member called the Tiger and Russian inteligencie was behind it. But i wouldn't expect you to have much sympathy for Poles being robbed, hating Polish people is in every cell of your expat body.

History / Where did Poles spend summer vacations in the PRL era? [12]

I thought you visited Moscow twice a year during Communist times mafketis, but i guess that was more of a work trip?

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]

Production would have been cut even if PiS went with the swedish model due to disruption of global supply chains, so i don't see how the miners and workers will blame the goverment for that.

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]

Baloney. Visegrad Group is strong, with Slowakia now a conservative-populist goverment. Germany has realised this and the attacks on PiS have stopped in the german state media. All Countries have a veto on any sanctions so we're all good. . Merkel is making amends with Poland. We're getting 65-70 Billion in debt mutualisation grants so plenty of money for infrastructure investment such as CPK. On the other hand PO want to stop the canal and airport. (theres going to be one in berlin so we don't need one lol!) PO has always been about keeping Poland as a economic colony of Germany and doing humiliating deals with Russia - ie paying the lowest price in europe for gas. This is what happens when a party is infested with ex SB/WSI oligarchs.

i follow aviation closely. Brandeburg was a SNAFU, because the state government refused to hire a multinational corporation to oversee the project, and did it themselves, city bureaucrats trying to co-ordinate hundreds of companies constructing the airport lol.


Primary function is becoming a mega cargo hub for central Europe and linking all of Poland by fast rail.

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]

You assume people that support PiS are trolls. You don't have the intelligence to realise that many polish people want Poland to reach the top tier of European countries, and not just be a source of cheap labour and a market for german goods. But plastic PolYanks will never realise this.

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]

Considering PiS won the last Parliamentary and Presidential elections and will win this one, it seems they have the same priorities as me. Or half of Poland are paid trolls?

Oh thats right they are stupid sub-humans bribed by handout kiełbasa and can't think for themselves. LOLzo

Any company that has the expertise and talent to oversee a multi-billion dollar construction project would be multinational with projects around the world, thats not to say it would not be headquartered in Germany and use German workers.

PolamKrakow I'm glad you and your company are doing well, but your american heritage comes with certain ideological baggage, of how you view the poor and the level of government support they should receive. Its also interesting that you moved to Poland whilst PiS was in power, so you do not have a point of comparison about PO corruption and what they gave to their SB/WSI mates. Who knows how your business would have gone if PO was in power and you annoyed the wrong person?

I suggest you watch the movie ukłąd zamknięty, very good depiction of how the post-communist elite operate , which are the underpinning of PO. vod.pl/filmy/uklad-zamkniety/rsrvz2j#0

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]

Well you too have been quick to make assumptions. I have lived in Poland. I have paid taxes in Poland. I visit regularly for months at a time but I prefer the warmer weather of OZ. My Uncle owns a pharmaceutical manufacturing company. I have a thorough knowledge of his business and how Poland works. Individual Philanthropy towards the poor has nothing to do with a decent welfare system, which poland lacks and you somehow think is a waste of money and will lead Poland to financial ruin. But if someone has grown up in the USA I can see how you think it is not possible. Perhaps i lumped you in with the Neo-libs mafs and cms who keep blathering on about 'handouts'

the left are irrelevant in poland, before and after PiS getting into power, PO kept going on about 500+ and how it will lead to financial ruin, stop people from looking for jobs armagedon blah blah. well what happend? we could afford it by stopping multi billion VAT fraud and multiple corruption scandals. As well as growing the economy through cutting red tape, R&D investments and state aid to important companies. PiS is the only viable party that wants to help the less fortunate and advance poland into the next stage of its development, and not just for the liberal elite in Warsaw. Those are my priorities , not lowering the retirement age, introducing trash contracts, and selling all they could to foreign capital like PO. Who do you expect me to vote for?

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2223]

The Germans have abandoned a balanced budget with their stimulus bill, and in fact there is europe wide consensus that debt is needed in these times. so lets see if it leads to their financial ruin.

"The program will include temporary cuts to VAT, a per-child financial allowance for families, and assistance for cash-strapped local authorities, along with plans to boost subsidies for electric cars and spend billions on national transport infrastructure." politico.eu/article/german-coalition-agrees-e130b-economic-rescue-package/

Cutting VAT temporarily is bold. Good to see them following Poland's lead and increasing financial assistance per child. Now we await Poland's Stimulus program to deal with the upcoming depression.
