Szefernaker:

Streets in Warsaw are being renamed from heroes, and under PO's rule, communists are being reinstated as street patrons on December 13th.
- In Warsaw, streets named after heroes are being changed, and on December 13th, under PO's rule, communists are being reinstated as street patrons. The fact that politicians like Ms. Senyszyn say such things and have the support they do isn't dangerous. But what is being done in Warsaw is dangerous - said Paweł Szefernaker in Woronicza 17. - How can you lump heroes together with those who, for example, hanged a pregnant woman from lampposts? We need to speak the truth - replied Mirosław Suchoń from Nowoczesna.

Szefernaker to PSL: People will vote for you and people like Senyszyn will get in. Hetman: I remind you what your colleagues said about Gowin, who voted to raise the retirement age to 67.
- You are going under the same banner as Ms. Senyszyn, with Mr. Mieszkowski. People will vote for you and people like them will get in - said Paweł Szefernaker at Woronicza 17. - There are issues that unite us, such as Poland's position in the EU, and this issue completely divides us. I remind you what your colleagues said about Jarosław Gowin, who voted to raise the retirement age to 67 - replied Krzysztof Hetman from PSL.

Spychalski:

To Repeating Stalinist Language to Call the 'Cursed Soldiers' Criminals
- To jest powielanie stalinowskiego języka, gdy mówi się o zbrodniarzach wśród Żołnierzy Wyklętych. Każdy, kto był przeciwnikiem komunistycznego systemu władzy, był traktowany jako wróg ludu. Nie możemy dać sobie wmówić, że tak było. Cieszę się, że udało się przekonać wielu polityków do tego, by to było święto państwowe. Gdyby nie Żołnierze Wyklęci, to opozycja w PRL-u miałaby o wiele trudniej, byli oni bohaterami dla tych, którzy zaczynali antykomunistyczną działalność, na przykład w 1956 r. - powiedział Błażej Spychalski w programie "Woronicza 17".

"Teachers Are Not Obligated to Live in Celibacy": Storm Online After Szczerski's Words on Teacher Salaries

- Any form of protest during the campaign, and this will be during the campaign, will be immediately politicized. Even if the trade unions wanted to make it purely a social protest, it will be a political protest - stated Krzysztof Szczerski on Saturday on Radio Trójka. In his opinion, the unions must realize that their protest "will be used in the campaign". - And the entire attempt to demand teachers' rights will simply go up in smoke - he added.

- Teachers are not obligated to live in celibacy. Therefore, the transfers that are currently being made, for example, for Polish families - 500 plus - also apply to teachers. PiS gives money to teachers because it gives it to all Poles - the presidential minister continued.

Tyszka on Kaczyński's "Five": It's "Kaczyński's Forty," meaning 40 Billion to Keep PiS in Power

- This is not "Kaczyński's Five," but it's "Kaczyński's Forty," meaning 40 billion is the cost to keep Law and Justice in power - stated Stanisław Tyszka in Dariusz Ociepa's program "Śniadanie w Polsat News," referring to the so-called Kaczyński's Five.

Grabiec on Kaczyński: Do you remember the scandal when a certain minister forgot to declare a watch? He forgot to declare building two towers.
What he did there is indefensible. He forgot to declare two towers in his asset declaration. Do you remember the scandal when a certain minister forgot to declare a watch? He forgot to declare that he is building two towers. He is building two towers, he is conducting business activity - stated Jan Grabiec on Dariusz Ociepa's program "Breakfast at Polsat News".

Szefernaker:

The Post-Communists Constantly Try to Dominate the European Coalition, Which is Disappointing for the PSL and Civic Platform
- The post-communists constantly try to show they are attempting to dominate this European Coalition, which is disappointing for the PSL and Civic Platform. Yesterday, the idea of introducing the Euro was floated. Lithuanians introduced the Euro and their prices rose. Is that what you want for Poles? It's a case of the many against the one; you can't win on your own, so you try to unite - said Paweł Szefernaker on Woronicza 17.

Lubnauer:

We Will Maintain 500+

- At this moment, we clearly declare, just like other groupings within the Civic Coalition, that we will maintain this program [500+]. This is our declaration, jointly signed - stated Katarzyna Lubnauer on TVN24's "Coffee on the Bench."

Szefernaker:

What's happening in Warsaw foreshadows what the European Coalition will do. We introduced 500+ in 100 days, PO is introducing ideological programs. Hetman: It was at WKK's request that Nowacka's project was rejected. Where was the priest's mot
- What's happening in Warsaw foreshadows what the European Coalition will do. We introduced 500+ in 100 days, Civic Platform is introducing ideological programs and an LGBT program. Under PiS rule, Poles will live better, under the European Coalition's rule, every child will be able to change their gender - said Paweł Szefernaker. - We are introducing free nurseries, increasing funding for clean air, and accelerating metro and tram line projects. This card was also introduced because it was an election promise to counteract discrimination - replied Mirosław Suchoń from Nowoczesna. - When Ms. Barbara Nowacka submitted her project, it was rejected in the first reading at the request of Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, because you didn't have the courage. Remember what the priest's mother did in that vote. PSL has never advocated for anything like this, and PiS is hypocritical because Trzaskowski is implementing the program he promised - replied Krzysztof Hetman from PSL. - We have a choice: either the path of a worldview war, or hard work for Poles, as the example of Warsaw shows - said Błażej Spychalski from the Chancellery of the President.

Dera:

Poles are living much better than before, as budget transfers are going towards societal development and families

- I understand that the scale of expectations is much greater at this moment, but look, what this government has done is raise minimum wages. Poles are living much better than before, as budget transfers are going towards societal development, for families, and this is a huge gain for this government - stated Andrzej Dera on TVN24's "Kawa na ławę".

Sasin:

There Will Be No Problem with the So-Called "Double Cohort"

- We are fully prepared here, we have complete information from all over Poland. There will be no problem, I want to tell parents, children, youth, there will be no problem with the so-called "double cohort" - stated Jacek Sasin on TVN24's "Kawa na ławę".

Poland is Emerging as a Powerhouse in Computer Games. PM Met with Participants of the Intel Extreme Masters Katowice 2019 e-sports Tournament
I am very pleased that Poland is emerging as such a powerhouse in computer games, in this new field which is undoubtedly extremely important for development, creativity, and new industries. One could say that this games industry is, literally and figuratively, a game-changer, an impulse for creating entirely new services – stated Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki in Katowice, where he met with participants of the Intel Extreme Masters Katowice 2019 e-sports tournament. He added:
"I must admit with some remorse, especially to those who consider it a waste of time, that I too used to play computer games. That was a long time ago, it was called Dig Dug, and in my game, it was a little monster that devoured the main character, meaning it chased me. I reached some very high levels."
- I am often asked if I have a favorite game today. To this, I must answer that my favorite game today is one with 40 million characters, 20 million somewhere outside the basic area, but also within our reach, you only have one life, and this game is about Poland reaching the highest possible level, the highest economic level, the highest level from the perspective of social well-being – emphasized the head of the Polish government.
