Today, the President of Slovakia, Zuzana Čaputová, will visit Poland. A welcoming ceremony by President Duda is scheduled for 10:00, followed by one-on-one talks between the presidents at 10:15. At 10:35, plenary talks between the delegations, led by the presidents, will take place, and at 11:30, the presidents will meet with the media. At 14:15, the Slovak President will meet with Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki.

At 16:00, in the Presidential Palace, President Andrzej Duda and his wife, Agata Kornhauser-Duda, will meet with participants of the "Poland is in You" project.

At 20:00, a further meeting of the European Parliament's Committee on Employment and Social Affairs will be held, where an attempt will be made to elect the committee's chairperson. Beata Szydło was the candidate for the European Conservatives and Reformists Group, but last week she was not elected to the position of committee chairperson. The MEP was the sole candidate for this position.

609 years ago, on the fields near Grunwald, the combined Polish-Lithuanian forces, led by King Władysław Jagiełło, defeated the Teutonic Knights in battle.

- On the one hand, they say they have too many duties. On the other hand, they are unable to cope with the tasks they are responsible for. Let's look at issues concerning education, schooling. They cannot cope, they simply cannot cope. They are indeed politicians who, instead of dealing with these sidewalks or matters concerning local governments, and I'm speaking symbolically here about sidewalks, about roads, engage in politics. They engage in clashes with the government, attacks on the government - said Mariusz Błaszczak in an interview with Katarzyna Gójska on "Sygnały dnia" of Polish Radio Channel One.

- I believe that one thing very clearly emerges from this convention. The leftism or radical leftism of PO. When Schetyna talks about registered partnerships, it shows that this is what they will focus on. Just like Trzaskowski, who introduced programs in Warsaw that demoralize children and youth, related to LGBT – said Mariusz Błaszczak in an interview with Katarzyna Gójska on Radio Jedynka's "Sygnały dnia".

- Wednesday is the deadline Grzegorz Schetyna has set [for concluding coalition talks]. This protracted process doesn't suit us, and it's not our style to engage in this soap opera you're describing. That's why we have established an election headquarters and a very good, positive offer for Poles, because Poles are tired of hearing about positions and top spots for this or that activist. Poles are interested in resolving the queues at emergency rooms and for specialist doctors. These are real problems - stated Krzysztof Brejza in a conversation with Krzysztof Skórzyński on TVN24's "Jeden na jeden".

- Grzegorz Schetyna will announce on Wednesday the formula we will adopt [for the parliamentary elections]. At the moment, we are proceeding as Nowoczesna, naturally joined by Platforma, Barbara Nowacka's Inicjatywa, and numerous other smaller parties, entities, associations, and organizations that resonate with a very good, positive program for Poland – Schetyna's Six - emphasized the head of the Civic Coalition's election staff.

- Yes, we will indeed admit we are right. We admit that PiS is right that queues for specialist doctors doubled during the Civic Platform’s government. From two months under PO to four months under PiS. Finally, what hits Poles the hardest is the high cost of living. And that's what we'll talk about. We don't want Kaczyński's 'five' to soon mean five [zlotys] for bread and a multiple of five, for example, ten [zlotys] for carrots, onions, or 50 [zlotys] for parsley. This is the effect of PiS's rule, the effect of their incompetence regarding energy, the management of State Treasury companies, and policies that directly destroy Poles' wallets. And that's what we'll talk about during the election campaign – stated Krzysztof Brejza in an interview with Krzysztof Skórzyński on TVN24's "Jeden na jeden".

- If Civic Platform wins the elections, it will be as Grzegorz Schetyna said. The pension age will not be raised. There will be no obligation to work longer. I don't rule out – our experts are also working on this, the program is being refined – that we will create incentives for Poles so that Poles can have decent pensions, not starvation, PiS-style, amid rising PiS prices - stated Krzysztof Brejza in an interview with Krzysztof Skórzyński on TVN24's "Jeden na jeden" program.

- Approximately PLN 30 billion [this is the cost of Schetyna's 'six']. This has been calculated by our experts - stated Krzysztof Brejza in a conversation with Krzysztof Skórzyński on TVN24's "Jeden na jeden" (One on One). He added:

"This is support for the professionally active. The state must support those who earn the least. Great respect to people who work for minimum wage or for PLN 2400, PLN 2600. These are amounts that, in today's reality, with enormously rising prices, are insufficient for a dignified, basic existence, and we will support such people."

- Grzegorz Schetyna is the leader of the entire opposition, a man who raised the Civic Platform from 15% to 30% support, and he is the man who created the largest opposition bloc in the history of free Poland, which obtained 38.5% in the elections, 5.3 million votes. There is one leader. Of course, there are leaders of the Civic Coalition who support Schetyna. For us, the natural candidate for Prime Minister is Grzegorz Schetyna - stated Krzysztof Brejza in an interview with Krzysztof Skórzyński on TVN24's "Jeden na jeden".

- Grzegorz Schetyna, who is the face of the "Schetyna's Six" program, should run from Warsaw. I am convinced that he will run from Warsaw. He will be running from Warsaw. For this great, positive debate on programs to occur, Schetyna will likely face Jarosław Kaczyński. On one side, a Poland of higher wages, renewed democracy, also harmony and agreement; on the other, the quarrelsome, hateful, inflammatory Poland we have been dealing with for 4 years. Let the Poles decide - emphasized the Civic Platform politician.

„The only way to win against PiS is one bloc. If someone says otherwise, they potentially see a possibility of a coalition with PiS. If Civic Platform doesn't decide to build one bloc, it means they don't want to win and will take responsibility for it. If we don't go to the elections together, PiS will win. There's no discussion about it at all” - said the leader of SLD, Włodzimierz Czarzasty, in an interview with Wojciech Dąbrowski on Polsat News.

– A reliable, good trick. Hiding in the closet, suddenly creating a purely PR, marketing image of a nice, kind man. Poles won't fall for it, because Poles want to talk about why prices are rising, why they are paying more for electricity, for gas, and why enormous sums are being transferred from PiS companies to dubious projects. These are current matters and problems for Poles, not the fact that Jarosław Kaczyński is suddenly softening his image under the influence of his PR team – stated Krzysztof Brejza in an interview with Krzysztof Skórzyński on TVN24's "Jeden na jeden", when asked about Jarosław Kaczyński's words from yesterday that in four years someone else will likely be in his place.

- Voters may ask themselves a question. Schetyna wants to be Prime Minister, to build a governing coalition, yet he is unable to build common opposition lists. He is unable to present a program that all opposition parties could sign up to - said Adam Bielan in an interview with Marcin Wikło on TVP1's "Political Quarter of an Hour".

– "Today, unfortunately, local authorities are being used to conduct major politics, to the detriment of these municipalities. If the mayors of successive cities clash with the government, as is the case with Warsaw or Gdańsk, it's hard to be surprised that major government investments won't flow to these cities later on. If someone starts a war with the government, it's difficult for them to then be an effective host for the city" – said Adam Bielan in an interview with Marcin Wikło on TVP1's "Political Quarter Hour".

- Ms. Dulkiewicz has only been the Mayor of Gdańsk for a few months and has already made many mistakes. Regarding historical policy, I would like to remind you that her deputy, on the occasion of some historical anniversary, stated that World War II occurred due to Polish hate speech towards Germany. She is still his superior, so I understand that she endorses these shameful statements. I don't think she is a serious contender for the incumbent President Andrzej Duda - said Adam Bielan. In an interview with Marcin Wikło on TVP1's "Political Quarter Hour".

Adam Struzik, Marshal of the Masovian Voivodeship and a prominent figure in the Polish People's Party (PSL), has stated that only a coalition between the Civic Platform (PO) and the PSL can effectively counter the ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party. His remarks, made on Twitter, underscore the ongoing political maneuvering and alliance-building discussions within the Polish opposition ahead of future elections.

Struzik's assertion highlights a perceived strategic necessity for a unified front against PiS. The PSL, historically a partner to various governments, including some led by PO, is seen by some as a crucial bridge between more liberal and centrist voters. The proposed PO-PSL coalition aims to consolidate the opposition vote, thereby increasing their chances of forming a government and ending PiS's tenure.

The tweet, referenced by the provided Twitter link, likely elaborates on Struzik's vision for opposition unity. Such statements are often made to signal intentions, test the waters for public and party acceptance, and put pressure on potential coalition partners to commit to a shared platform. The political landscape in Poland remains dynamic, with opposition parties actively seeking ways to challenge the dominant PiS party.

The effectiveness of such a coalition, should it materialize, would depend on several factors, including the ability of PO and PSL to reconcile their differences, present a united program, and appeal to a broad spectrum of voters disillusioned with the current government. The call for a PO-PSL alliance by figures like Struzik is a significant indicator of the strategic thinking within the opposition as they prepare for future political contests.

Roman Giertych, a lawyer and politician, announced on Twitter that he had submitted a request to excuse the absence of Roman Protasiewicz (identified as PDT) from tomorrow's meeting of the parliamentary committee investigating the VAT fraud. The committee was scheduled to conclude the interrogation of a witness at this session.

„President Jarosław Kaczyński has shown more than once that he is the best selector in Poland and has a flair for building winning teams. On the other hand, a selector ponders not so much the lineup as the idea” – stated Minister Łukasz Schreiber in a Polish Radio III program.

„The top candidates have been announced. I don't think there are any extraordinary sensations, although there are a couple of surprises, for example, Minister Szumowski in Płock. The key is clear. These are the leaders of our party” – he added.

„The Civic Platform (PO) is entirely reminiscent of an alcoholic husband who, after yet another row he caused and returning home drunk once more, repeatedly promises to change. He says, 'No, not anymore,' and even adds, 'I'll even clean, darling, I'll find a better job, etc.' Of course, one can believe this, but there's no willingness to go to rehab. It's the same people all the time. Schetyna is the quintessence of the Civic Platform from the time of their rule” - said Minister Łukasz Schreiber on Polish Radio's Third Program.

As announced by the Prime Minister, the Council of Ministers is set to adopt a draft bill lowering the personal income tax (PIT) from 18% to 17% at its Tuesday session. The government will thus fulfill the last commitment from the so-called Kaczyński's 'Five Points', although the proposal will still need to go through parliamentary works. However, it is difficult to consider the implementation of the 'Five Points' as having proceeded 100% according to plan – the execution of the costly proposals has diverged from the initial assumptions.

At the beginning of March, the government presented a so-called roadmap, a precise scenario for the implementation of Kaczyński's 'Five Points'. According to this plan, the aforementioned draft bill on PIT reduction, along with an increase in income-generating costs, was supposed to be announced by the end of March. Consultations were scheduled for April, and the government was to adopt it in May. Parliamentary works were planned for June, and presidential signing – by mid-June.

Today, it is evident that this plan did not pan out. The draft only appeared in the Government Legislation Centre (RCL) today, though the government will address it on Tuesday thanks to a special, expedited internal government procedure. The Sejm can theoretically take up the draft at its session commencing on Wednesday and adopt it. However, according to the description in the legislative works register, the lowered tax rate (17%) will apply to income earned from January 1, 2020. Similarly, the new (increased) amount of income-generating costs will enter into force on January 1, 2020, and will apply to income earned from that date.

The conclusion is clear: the most spectacular and costly proposals, such as extending the 500+ child benefit to the first child or the so-called 'Jarkowe', i.e., the 13th pension, were a priority for the Prime Minister's Chancellery and were efficiently implemented. As we wrote on 300POLITYCE, announcing the Prime Minister's Chancellery's offensive, in the spring, even the Marshal of the Sejm was asked to convene one or two additional Sejm sessions.

Things went worse with the other proposals – the restoration of bus connections also experienced a slight delay, and the Senate only a few days ago adopted the draft concerning 0% PIT for young people. Although, according to the roadmap, as with the PIT reduction, parliamentary works were planned for May, and presidential signing – for the period up to mid-June. The roadmap prepared by the Prime Minister's Chancellery was too optimistic, and therefore practically unrealistic, which is best illustrated by the pace of tax legislation implementation.

- This is a parliamentary ID. Mine. It's not the case that anyone can issue such an ID for themselves at any time. Antoni Macierewicz issued himself an ID as a member of the aviation accident investigation committee during his hearing - said Cezary Tomczyk during a press conference in the Sejm.

- This committee should be liquidated immediately. We are filing a criminal complaint against Antoni Macierewicz and the Smoleńsk subcommittee regarding Article 231 of the Penal Code, which concerns abuse of power and dereliction of duty - added Tomczyk.

- First place on the ballot in the Piotrków constituency for Antoni Macierewicz is effectively a slap in the face to all families of the Smolensk catastrophe victims and a revelation of PiS's true face. A reward for Macierewicz's actions, when he should be penalized for them - said Cezary Tomczyk during a press conference in the Sejm.

- We discussed the Disciplinary Chamber of the Supreme Court. The way judges are elected to the Disciplinary Chamber, what its role and significance are. I told the President that the Disciplinary Chamber is a response to the unfortunately very poor assessment of the Polish justice system by Polish society. It is very important that disciplinary responsibility is exercised in a transparent manner - said President Andrzej Duda after a meeting with Slovak President Zuzana Čaputová.

„Jarosław Kaczyński is a key politician in Poland. All the victories of the 'Good Change' camp are the victories of the commander-in-chief, which has turned out to be an extremely experienced and capable politician, namely Jarosław Kaczyński. I am confident about his electoral result” – said Minister Zbigniew Ziobro in an interview with journalists in Kielce.

- I don't understand Mr. President Kosiniak-Kamysz, because he somewhat contradicts what he has been doing for the last few months. It's hard to understand - said Marcin Kierwiński in a conversation with Karolina Lewicka in TOK FM's "Political Interview."

- If it were the case that PiS decided or suggested to PSL in which bloc it should go - Kierwiński continued.

- And haven't you noticed? - the journalist pressed.

- I have noticed, and it deeply concerns me. It would mean that PSL feels very insecure in its traditional electorate and that it is actually fear of PiS that sets the framework for the coalition in which PSL wants to operate - stated the Civic Platform MP.

- It's always the case that a party, and people, are either prepared or not prepared for certain solutions. I can say that it's clear we weren't prepared as a party for such decisions in 2013. I think we've moved past this discussion now – said Marcin Kierwiński in an interview with Karolina Lewicka on TOK FM's "Political Interview."

Continuing their tour of smaller towns, Coalition of the Civic (KO) politicians visited several municipalities in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship today. In Mikołajki, they spoke with passers-by, and in Świętajno, with NGOs and entrepreneurs. In Piecki, they visited a family bakery that has seen significant growth in recent years thanks to EU funds.

300POLITYKA participated in the KO politicians' visit to the bakery and the most popular ice cream parlor in Masuria in Piecki, where Małgorzata Kidawa-Błońska and Barbara Nowacka spoke with residents.

The KO team, comprising campaign staff and volunteers, is traveling in two marked buses. Following them is a team from the Financial Times, preparing a report on the KO leaders' local tour. Based on our observations, the visits are generating considerable interest; the buses are noticed, and passers-by are readily engaging in conversations with PO politicians.

72% of respondents believe that the currently governing parties will win the autumn parliamentary elections, according to a Kantar survey conducted for TVN Facts. In the opinion of 13% of those surveyed, opposition parties will win the elections. 15% have no opinion on the matter.

Here are the results of a Kantar poll conducted for TVN Facts:

PiS - 42%

KO - 27%

Kukiz'15 - 6%

Wiosna - 5%

Wolność - 3%

PSL - 3%

SLD - 2%

Razem - 2%

Ruch Narodowy - 1%

- Starting the PSL with active people who work, manage, run farms, and create added value, holds more value than attempting to package everyone into a single political format where the programs simply don't fit together - said Waldemar Pawlak in an interview with Bogdan Rymanowski on the program "Wydarzenia i Opinie" (Events and Opinions) on Polsat News.

- Maybe [I will run in the elections]. More likely as a senator - said Waldemar Pawlak in a conversation with Bogdan Rymanowski on the program „Wydarzenia i Opinie” on Polsat News.

- And for the leader of PSL? - the journalist inquired.

- Well, you know. It's time for the youth - Pawlak replied.

- Now a little quiz. For you and for MP Horała as well. Who spoke of treacherous murders, of scoundrels, who directed the words from the parliamentary podium to me too: 'you killed my brother,' who spoke of a worse sort, of worse Poles? I think these words came from Jarosław Kaczyński - said Cezary Tomczyk in an interview with Bogdan Rymanowski on the program "Wydarzenia i Opinie" on Polsat News.

- We'd expect our adversaries not to attack us with intellectual dishonesty, not to slander us with every evil, but to present their positive proposals, and then we can discuss - said Marcin Horała in an interview with Bogdan Rymanowski on the program "Wydarzenia i Opinie" (Events and Opinions) on Polsat News.

- I believe that within the United Right camp, and specifically within Law and Justice, there is a very strong conviction that the President [referring to Jarosław Kaczyński] is a huge added value and that he is the leader of the camp. I believe the President is in full strength and has many years ahead when it comes to functioning in politics - said Paweł Mucha in an interview with Bogdan Rymanowski on the program "Wydarzenia i Opinie" (Events and Opinions) on Polsat News.

- Beata Szydło completely lost the re-vote for the Chair of the European Parliament's Employment Committee. Hardly anyone bought into PiS's 'European' credentials. Now, Madam Prime Minister has a chance to work as a regular Member of the European Parliament and prove that she respects the EU, including its flag - wrote Robert Biedroń on Twitter.

https://twitter.com/ZdzKrasnodebski/status/1150832538916720640

- I think that today it is also the case that opposition politicians primarily have a credibility problem. In the sense that if they promise something or try to outbid PiS by saying 'we will give more,' voters also wonder why they didn't give it when they could have. And that's also a problem - stated Krzysztof Łapiński in an interview with Katarzyna Kolenda-Zaleska on TVN24's "Fakty po faktach".
