Election marathon 2018-2020 in Poland

That is so true. Unfortunately, my cat saw AOC, that ugly pos from Somalia, and the Democrap candidates on TV, hissed and took the first flight out to Moscow, never to be back. I am going to miss him.

PiS fear the educated turning out to vote.


And nurses/doctors and a few other groups.

I've read an analysis a couple of weeks ago, and united opposition candidates for the Senate win around 80 seats out of 100. PiS are panicking, and stealing pension funds from Poles is an incredibly risky move. It also seems that the huge giveaway of (our) cash isn't working.

Since commie times grade school and high school teachers got little to no respect. Not much has changed. With foreign English teachers it's even less since poles realize only a person who failed back home would undertake such a profession. On average even coal miners get more respect

This is excellent news. The end of the beginning was some time ago. Now, for right wing political parties in PL, we've passed the beginning of the end.

Here's a novel idea - get a better paying job and stop complaining

Watching the fall of PiS is entertaining. It will be interesting to see what happens to the creep Kukiz and his anti-vaxxers...


Who's complaining? They aren't complaining, they're striking.

In any case, it's advice you might follow yourself. Teaching in state schools however is not however some casual job like telesales, rather it is a profession and a career.

And why shouldn't they 'complain'? Have they taken a vow of silence?

Same thing. Lots of complaining


And yet despite being a 'profession' it pays far less than 'casual jobs' like even sales, which FYI I don't work in, I run a small business. If the teachers want to make more money they shouldn't chose such a low paying job, profession or whatever you want to call it.


Still #1 and still far ahead of PO

Far from it. Striking gets results. In this case, it looks like it's working nicely, as it has in the past...

With professions like teaching, those who do it actually need specific qualifications and certification. One reason they are in such a strong position when they strike.

And this election is liely to go badly for PiS.


'Freelance' again.....

One more lesson on the Polish ways. Nearly 30 million Poles are eligible for voting but usually only about 50% take part. A few hundred thousand disciplined and enraged voters can easily break the camel`s back.


Why are you repeating the same lie over and over again if I already said that 74% on a respect scale for teachers is not so little? Actually, it is more than doctors` 71%.

I hope you know what you wish for. Or not? :)
Old teachers won`t quit. But there are no trainee teachers because postgraduates prefer to look for jobs elsewhere. So, the only solution will be to employ immigrant teachers in the future. Indians, Africans, Ukrainians, Russians etc. I don`t mind because at last my dream of a bigger diversity in Poland will be fulfilled! Ha! :)

That's good. That way only those who are interested in politics are taking part in voting.

Obviously, there's some room for improvement - traditional Athenian (Greek) democracy worked because only 10% of Greeks (elites) were taking part in elections. What we've got now i Europe is Ochlocracy, a ruling of half-wits stupified by the system of mandatory "education", mass media and entertainment industry. This system works in producing idiots in large numbers, an ideal left voters.

Fortuantely, those who support Konfederacja Korwin-Braun-Narodowcy are very disciplined voters and will be present in voting polls.


Have you read a recent NIK report that over 10% of future teachers had problems with passing Matura? Basially a teaching career is chosen by those who are unable to learn more desired (and much better paid) skills and paths of career such as medicine, architecture, programming, engeenering

Of course there are those who go into teaching later in life.


Where salaries are low and conditions sub-optimal, this is the inevitable result. Those of us who can, work in Universities instead.

After we had discussed this issue 10 days ago, a few articles corroborating my point of view appeared. One of them suggests that the total number of 700.000 teachers of all levels with their familes make about 7-10% votes, depending on the turnout. This is the straw that might break the camel`s back.


I haven`t, but I believe you. We`d better discuss it in other threads about education, here it will be off topic.


Only one month is left. :):)

You grasping at. Taking all in rationally there is no reason for PiS to loose an upcoming election.

You PO dogs are just so much so like gamblers, 'tis time we win will big' patting themselves on the back around the clock.

PO has nothing to offer, they are more of a garbage than PiS. Why would people vote on them? For all those crooked smiles, and lies?

So far majority of voters are OK with PiS. If that changes ( as it should) why would anyone than few losers vote PO? That delusional.

The EU parliament is a pure show with no powers. Few MP from here or there makes not difference for the whole picture.

Let me remind you about a few things because you seem to live in some ancient reality. . Have you been cut off the Net recently? :)

1. It is not longer PO, but European Coalition.

2. Majority is just a little over 50%. Your words that PiS attracts as many voters are a lie, of course.

3. You perfectly realise that your favourite nationalists and maniacal rightists under Korwin etc are going to play useful idiots for the opposition, as they will score about 4%, too few to cross the election threshold but enough to deprive PiS of valuable votes. :):)


Funny. You are already taking a defensive position.
Another reminder - remember that European elections results will be played by winners against losers till autumn national elections.

Funny. You are calling it ...'a defensive position'. I'm stating an obvious fact objectively. Nothing defensive about it .I have been talking mainly about a general election in Poland.

I wasn't focusing on theEU election which are mainly not very popular in Poland, few voters take part in those hence they are more unpredictable and varied. Doesn't necessary means that PO will win them. I hazard a guess here and say that PIS and PO will come head to head with few percent in favor of PiS but other parties will gain a lot.

In short no matter what PO will not win.

So you need to be more specific next time. You said: upcoming election, which means the one in May.


That is why the Coalition has a chance to teach PiS a little lesson.


Even such a result will be a success. It is PiS which has been giving away benefits like crazy. What for - only to draw with the opposition? Pathetic.

It's a BOLSHEVIK Coalition of six parties put together by Schetyna who wants to avoid being wiped off the political map of Poland.

Surely Poles are not going to risk putting the country's future prospects in the hands of people who want to revert to the old PRL.

Isn't Schetyna regarded as the least trusted politician in Poland?

PO dare not stand in their own rite. They needed to come up with their Bolshevik Coalition of six parties and include former stars of the old Communist era.

Yes, it is sad that ex- communist apparatschiks were called to give a hand against PiS but it is only PiS` own fault that such a situation is happening. The reason is simple - PiS have nothing against Poland leaving the EU while ex-communists once worked hard so that Poland could join the EU.

No such thing they should all be dragged out of bed in the middle of the night and sent to a Siberian labour camp for four years, would be nice to see them get a taste of their own medicine.

Without court trial, conviction and sentence? :):) In this way, you become like them, I hope you realise it.

I do, proof of membership is enough, after all being Polish in Kresy was enough to be deported to Siberia by communists.

A trial with under a former PRL judge? Yeah.. that will see justice! The judiciary is still under the control of the old guard.

Is it worse than Piotrowicz (PRL prosecutor whose stories about helping dissidents have been rejected)?

Yes, maf, it is so funny today those PiS oriented guys accuse others of communist connections while themselves they were collaborators and traitors in the past.


PiS is more under the control of the old guard than the judiciary. We already talked about it here, your nationalist mate Ironside even vehemently defended Piotrowicz and when enquired a few times to explain, always kept silent about it.

Additionally, PiS guys are regularly revealed as communist collaborators.

Grupa rekonstrukcyjna "PZPR 1989" teraz nazywa się Koalicją Europejską

Doesn't Communist collaborator Bolek look forward to a return to Russian rule, if/when PO get back into power?

The idea that PiS is pro-Communist is absurd and only spouted by mindless lefties who get their talking points from the Soros financed German backed mainstream press in Poland.

to their gullible followers and very credible to those with critical facilities....


you won't find many people who dislike Soros more than me, but he has nothing to do with the commie collaborating past of many members of PiS...

Just how many PiS followers propose closer ties to Moscow and advocate a return to Russian rule? Good old Communist collaborator Bolek is all for it.

Remember when Tusk went to Moscow in May 2010, a month after President Kaczynski was assassinated, to celebrate the end of WWII in Europe and the Russian annexation of Poland? I can't imagine any PiS leader doing that, but I'm sure most of the Bolshevik Coalition would be happy to do so.

PO is all about the EU (intensely hated by Putin)... you make no logical points....
