Kaczyński:

The Constitution is just a booklet. How can it be sovereign?

Kaczyński: The Constitution is just a booklet. How can it be sovereign? - The Constitution is just a booklet. How can it be sovereign? Those who apply it can be sovereign. If you take into account the context – says the First President of the Supreme Court – then it is clearly about this, and this was said at that meeting in Katowice, that they themselves are the sovereign. The constitution states that the nation is sovereign, exercising power through its representatives, i.e., the Sejm, the Senate, and the President, as well as directly, through a referendum. I don't know if you, Professor, haven't read the constitution or if it's about defending such a barricade, because the courts today are such a barricade protecting this sick system, which was once defined by Jadwiga Staniszkis as post-communism – said Jarosław Kaczyński on "Gość Wiadomości" on TVP Info.
