Karczewski:
We've done a lot in healthcare. This year sees record public funding.
- We've done a lot in healthcare. It is an urgent matter [the need to repair the public healthcare sector], of course, we have done a lot over these 4 years, we have truly done a lot. Healthcare has three areas: personnel, money, and organization. We have done a lot in all three areas - stated Stanisław Karczewski in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Rozmowa Piaseckiego".
- We have done a lot in healthcare. This year, record public funding, over PLN 100 billion. That's a huge amount. We should be happy about that. As for the number of doctors, there will be a larger number of doctors. We have increased medical school admission limits by 50%. They first have to finish their studies, then get educated, and wait a while. Doctors are not leaving. This makes us very happy. We have created such conditions and doctors are earning so much that they are working. Regarding funding, 6% is a great success, it's an entrenched change that will be cemented. What pear trees on a branch? It's a perspective. You need to have it, others didn't. It is enshrined in law - the Marshal of the Senate continued.
07:59
Karczewski:
We decided not to abolish the National Health Fund. We've sealed this pot, and money isn't leaking out.
- We did not abolish [the National Health Fund]. We decided not to abolish it. We've sealed this pot, and money isn't leaking out - stated Stanisław Karczewski in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Piasecki's Conversation."
08:04
Karczewski:
If I said there were no problems in healthcare, I would be lying
- If I said there were no problems in healthcare, I would be lying - stated Stanisław Karczewski in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Piasecki's Conversation."
- When it comes to nurses, we have a truly very good situation here. This is because the number of nursing faculties is increasing, and women are increasingly eager, not just women, but men too. Interestingly, there's a much larger increase in men than women, because the market for paramedics is saturated, and paramedics are retraining in the nursing field - continued the Marshal of the Senate.
08:05
Biedroń:
Perhaps We Shouldn't Invest So Much in New Bombs and Tanks. We Have Peace. Today, People Aren't Dying in Poland from Bombs or Tanks. Today, People Die Because We Have a Weak Healthcare System.
08:11
Karczewski:
We've Done a Lot in Healthcare; It Proves Kopacz and Arłukowicz Were Disastrous Ministers Who Only Made a Mess and Wanted Privatization
- I know there is a lot to be done in healthcare. I know. But we have done a great deal, which is only proof of what disastrous ministers Ewa Kopacz and Mr. Arłukowicz were. They only made a mess. They wanted to privatize healthcare. They said the market, money, would verify and solve the problems. No. There cannot be a market in healthcare. Healthcare must be like the police service, like the state fire brigade - stated Stanisław Karczewski in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Rozmowa Piaseckiego".
08:14
Karczewski:
Healthcare Cannot Be Reformed Abruptly
- Healthcare cannot be reformed abruptly. It cannot. It's simply impossible. Changes must be gentle, slow, and consistent. And that's how we are doing it - stated Stanisław Karczewski in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Rozmowa Piaseckiego".
08:16
Biedroń:
On Sunday, we have a convention that will summarize our program, proposals, and dreams of a different Poland. The cherry on top will be Aleksander Kwaśniewski.
- We have a convention that will summarize our program, our proposals, and dreams of a different Poland. Today, we are really choosing between a state that will be conservative, religious, subordinate to the party leader, and a modern, European state - said Robert Biedroń in an interview with Piotr Witwicki on Polsat News's "Graffiti".
- On Sunday at the convention, we will summarize this with a cherry on top, which will be Aleksander Kwaśniewski, the most popular two-term president - Biedroń added.

Rzońca:
A Problem in Our Country is High Taxation and Social Security Contributions on Low Earnings; KO's Proposal Will Place Us Among Countries with Low Taxation and Contributions
– One of the problems in our country is that low earnings are highly taxed and subject to high social security contributions. Only in two countries in the world are these taxes and contributions higher than ours. Thanks to the KO's proposal, we will move to the group of countries where these taxes and contributions are low – said Andrzej Rzońca in an interview with Beata Lubecka on the program "Gość Radia ZET".
08:25
Rzońca:
We Presented a Bill to Promote Employment Contracts; This Form of Employment Will Also Be Most Tax-Attractive for Employers
- We have presented a bill based on which employment based on an employment contract will become widespread. This form of employment, which is the most beneficial for the employee because it provides them with the greatest sense of stability, will also be the most tax-attractive for the employer - said Andrzej Rzońca in an interview with Beata Lubecka on the program "Gość Radia ZET".
08:32
Rzońca:
We Will Absolutely Not Introduce a Property Tax. We Are Not a Party That Introduces New Taxes
- We will absolutely not introduce a property tax. We are not a party that introduces new taxes - said Andrzej Rzońca in an interview with Beata Lubecka on the program 'Gość Radia ZET'.
- Who raised the VAT from 23% when Donald Tusk was in power. Well, Civic Platform - stated the journalist.
- Please also note that the years 2008-2015 were a period when the largest tax cuts were introduced. Then the PIT reduction from 19, 30, and 40% to 18 and 32% came into effect - Rzońca replied.
08:34
Sasin:
We Cannot Remain a Reservoir of Cheap Labor for All of Europe, as It Destroys Us. This is Plunderous Policy Towards Poland and Poles
“We are catching up very quickly with those [Western] countries, and now we need to catch up in terms of living standards. Poland’s advantage was supposed to be cheap labor. That was supposed to be something that would attract investors. We want to compete with the quality of our personnel, good training, diligence, and good investment conditions. We have already built a whole legal system that makes investments in Poland profitable. We cannot remain a reservoir of cheap labor for all of Europe indefinitely, because it destroys us. This is a plunderous policy towards Poland and Poles” – said Deputy Prime Minister Jacek Sasin on Polskie Radio Jedynka.
08:35
Karczewski:
Some say 'Why 500+, it should have gone to healthcare.' I guarantee that if we had allocated all funds to healthcare, patients wouldn't feel any difference.
- If, let's say, because such accusations sometimes occur. Some say: why 500+, it should have all gone to healthcare. I guarantee that if we had allocated all those funds to healthcare, patients wouldn't feel any difference. This system needs to be changed slowly, because healthcare cannot be reformed abruptly - stated Stanisław Karczewski in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Rozmowa Piaseckiego".
08:43
- I think we have nothing to complain about, but now is not the time either; we are truly in the final stretch, so dwelling on debates is not appropriate. We're moving on. Of course, we could have expected our opponents to trip on their way into the studio, or other such additional entertainment elements. No, I think our representative [Jacek Sasin] emphasized the most important points that needed to be conveyed on the individual topics. As I said, a debate is a campaign event that somehow captures public attention, but it is not the most important thing, and for us, it is important to continue with the campaign plan laid out for the next few days – stated Radosław Fogiel in an interview with Marek Pyza on TVP1's "Political Quarter Hour".
08:55
Tomczyk:
We Live in a Deceptive World. Today, We Don't Know the State of State Finances. Today, the Central Statistical Office is Under Government Control
"People are terrified by the lie that is functioning. They never imagined they would live in a state that crossed so many boundaries, where scandal chases scandal. We live in a deceptive world. Today, we don't know the state of state finances. Today, the Central Statistical Office is under government control" - said Cezary Tomczyk from Civic Platform on TOK FM Radio's Morning Show.
09:16
- "No one is at war with local government, of course, and this is also a rather frequently used argument by the opposition, which is very harmful to the functioning of the state and local government. That is, creating such an opposition where on one side is local government, and on the other side are state authorities, and that they are fundamentally in conflict by their nature. Well, no, both are public institutions that should cooperate and act" - stated Radosław Fogiel in a conversation with Marek Pyza on "Polityczny Kwadrans" on TVP1.
09:31
- Because it's paid from the Pension Fund (FUS). It was the same with this year's pension. The FUS is not included in budget allocations - stated Radosław Fogiel in an interview with Marek Pyza on TVP1's "Political Quarter Hour".
- Perhaps some of these funds for the 13th pension will have to come from this source, and in this regard, a budget amendment might be necessary, but as a rule, a budget entry titled '13th pension' cannot exist because, formally speaking, it's not the source - added the Deputy Spokesperson for PiS.
09:50
- Hello. My name is Krzysztof. I'm going to tell you about a certain city. No, not about its history. My grandparents don't have a grave here in Rakowice. I'm a 'słoik' (a derogatory term for someone who moves to a city from the countryside or a smaller town for studies/work). I came here for my studies because I was looking for a place to live. A place where I could have fun, find the love of my life, start a family. Where I could do truly great things. Things I could only dream of in other cities. I chose Krakow. My love for this city has a bittersweet taste. In the last 20 years, we have changed a lot. Many places have been created that I love to visit. But we've lost our vision somewhere along the way. If something exceptional happens, it's usually thanks to people's energy. Politicians have no interesting ideas for this city. It's great that we have over 13 million tourists a year, but aren't we turning into Disneyland, or rather, Bangkok? It's great that new housing estates are being built, but why behind a closed barrier, with not a shred of green space and no thought for transportation? Corporations have given us jobs, but they often no longer meet our aspirations. We want more - says Krzysztof Mazur, former head of the Jagiellonian Club, currently running for senator from Krakow with PiS support, in a new campaign video.
- I can tell you about some of my dreams. For example, that Wesoła doesn't become another victim of developers, but a green district of innovation. That Krakow's hospitals start respecting perinatal care standards, because childbirth can be a good experience. That our schools teach programming while also showing children how to use smartphones wisely. That we can support civic initiatives online, and politicians don't treat us like enemies. These are my dreams. What are yours? Only together can we fulfill them. Let's finally end the 'it can't be done' philosophy. We live in Krakow to do truly great things. For this to happen, Krakow needs a young, brave, and above all, effective person in parliament. That's why I'm running for the Senate as a PiS candidate - the candidate emphasizes.

- Donald Tusk is concluding his term in Brussels. His mandate is ending, and he has a multitude of matters to resolve there. However, it is likely clear and obvious to everyone where Donald Tusk's heart lies and for whom it beats - stated Sławomir Neumann in an interview with Jacek Prusinowski on Radio Plus, when asked why Donald Tusk, so engaged in the European Parliament campaign, is now absent and not assisting Civic Coalition. He added:
"We still have, I believe, a week and a half of campaigning left. You will still see tweets from Chairman Tusk. We always count on ourselves and work independently. We are working as actively as we possibly can because these are elections that are close to the people. Our candidates are at hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of meetings, on the streets, at markets, at various events. Anyone who wants to and can should help in these elections. Donald Tusk is helping and has done and will do many things for us."

Broniarz:
Teachers' "Work-to-Rule" Strike to Begin on October 15th
- What I am talking about, a proposal for an indefinite protest action within the framework of a teacher's 40-hour working week, stems from a survey that ZNP conducted in September. Over 220,000 teachers and non-teaching staff participated in this survey. In this survey, we primarily asked how teachers and education staff assess the quality of educational policy in Poland, and here, this assessment did not reflect well on the government. The evaluation was around a C grade (trójka). The second question concerned areas that, according to teachers, should be improved and changed first, and here we offered the right to two answers from a number of proposals. A significant majority of teachers pointed to salary levels, bureaucracy, and an overloaded curriculum. This is the element we pay particular attention to. When we say that, yes, the protest has a salary dimension, but generally, we are talking about the need to reform the Polish education system - stated Sławomir Broniarz at a press conference.
- We also asked teachers about their level of acceptance for a potential protest action, and half of the teachers clearly said they would participate in this action, formulated, among other things, in the way I am describing, i.e., a so-called, by convention, "work-to-rule" strike. This means working within the scope and extent to which the law obliges us, but we will not perform any additional duties that teachers have been performing so far. This is the message we are sending to teachers. We do not want to do this on the eve of the elections. We remember all the negative things that happened concerning our community, that whole wave of attacks, hate speech, and slander, claiming we are conducting a politicized action. We do not intend to do it before the elections; we intend to do it immediately after the elections - emphasized the ZNP president. The "work-to-rule" strike is scheduled to begin on October 15th.

Kidawa-Błońska:
The Receipt Was Genuine for Someone Who Needed That Medicine But Didn't Fit the Category of Child or 110 Days. So Budka Was Telling the Truth.
- This receipt [that Borys Budka presented during the TVP debate] was a genuine receipt. That much money was paid for that medicine on that day. Indeed, for a month now, this medicine has been subsidized for children up to 110 days old. And that is also true. But yesterday, the receipt was genuine for a person who needed that medicine but did not fit the category of a child or 110 days. So Borys Budka was telling the truth - stated Małgorzata Kidawa-Błońska at a press conference in Lublin.
11:35
- Every day from today, Mr. Jarosław Kaczyński, the leader of PiS, we will hold you accountable for your unfulfilled postulates and promises. We will present you with a bill for your incompetent governance. We will expose and point out everything you promised and failed to deliver. The Left, in opposition, is taking on the duty today of bravely highlighting PiS's unfulfilled promises. You have lied to Polish women and men. You have grown long noses - said Robert Biedroń during a press conference in front of the PiS headquarters.
Among the promises unfulfilled, according to the Left, by PiS, the leader of Wiosna listed:
- 100,000 apartments
- Hot meals in schools
- Free medication for pregnant women
- A cap on medicine expenses
- Abolition of the National Health Fund (NFZ)
- A VAT reduction to 22%
- A minimum wage of 50% of the national average
- A referendum on the Open Pension Funds (OFE)
- Shortening of court proceedings
- Reducing queues to doctors
- A reprivatization act
- A ban on fur farming
- Zero VAT on children's clothing
- Increased investment spending
- Increased spending on science

Witczak:
Withholding Documents on the 'Hate Campaign' Scandal is Simple Document Concealment. We are Forced to Sue Ziobro and His Ministry
- Zbigniew Ziobro and his ministry have violated two laws. Firstly, the Act on Access to Public Information, and secondly, the Act on the Performance of the Mandate of a Member of Parliament and Senator. Withholding documents concerning the 'hate campaign' scandal from us is simply concealing documents that are public in nature. Due to this situation, we are forced to take Zbigniew Ziobro and his ministry to court. We will lodge a complaint against the officials' sluggishness and the concealment of the 'hate campaign' scandal with the Provincial Administrative Court in Warsaw, and there we will seek justice in an independent court – Mariusz Witczak said during a press conference in the Sejm.
11:43
Schetyna:
As Little Politics in the Economy and Entrepreneurship As Possible; As Little Negative Influence from Politicians As Possible
- We want to very clearly repeat and state what Marshal Kidawa-Błońska said. As little politics in the economy, in entrepreneurship as possible. As little negative influence from politicians as possible. What Kaczyński did, by imposing or announcing an increase in the minimum wage, thoughtlessly, unreflectively, is frightening entrepreneurs, and we are seeing it today. Opinions from the Ministry of Finance also show this. The creation of a grey economy, problems in the labour market. This is the effect of irrational, foolish announcements by politicians. Politics must have a positive impact on the economy, on entrepreneurs. It must provide new, open opportunities. We, as Civic Coalition, say very clearly: the lowest possible taxes, the lowest possible social security contributions (ZUS). ZUS that will be a function of the minimum wage. As many jobs as possible. We did this when times were tough, when there was a financial crisis, when we navigated it better than anyone else in the entire EU. And today we say: it is possible, but the economy, finances, budget, and labour affairs must be handled by experts, not amateurs - stated Grzegorz Schetyna at a press conference in Lublin.
13:02
Olszewski:
100 PiS Scandals – This Government is Just the Tip of the Iceberg. They'll Surely Surprise Us Again, Even During This Campaign, as Certain Matters Will Emerge Successively.
- This government is the most degenerate government that Poland has had to date. This government essentially serves up another scandal to Poles every day. We realize that these 100 PiS scandals, this government's scandals, are just the tip of the iceberg. They will surely surprise us again, even during this campaign, and certain things will emerge successively, later – stated Paweł Olszewski at a press conference.
- We are presenting this list because we are convinced that Poles need to have all of PiS's scandals cataloged. As Representative Olszewski said, this is merely the tip of the iceberg. These 100 scandals are just the most evident symbols of what has happened over the past 4 years. But these 100 scandals, the vast majority of the scandals we have listed here, also represent a ready list for a future, independent Prosecutor General. A list of matters that they will have to deal with in order to hold the PiS governments accountable. What is most saddening in this matter is that the state prosecution service is not functioning in these cases, that the state is paralyzed. That in none of the scandals involving important PiS politicians do we have results from the work of the prosecution or special services. That each of these cases is meticulously hidden by the authorities. That's why I say: this list will be a ready list for a future, independent Prosecutor General to deal with these matters – said Marcin Kierwiński.
- Behind us, you can see the website "100 PiS Scandals." The PiS government is constantly serving us scandals. In recent weeks, it's been the Piebiak scandal, the Banaś scandal, and earlier the Chrzanowski scandal. New scandals all the time. It's worth visiting this website – added Adam Szłapka.

Terlecki:
The coffin with the body of Marshal Senior Kornel Morawiecki will be displayed in the Column Hall on Friday
- On Friday, the coffin with the body of Marshal Senior [Kornel Morawiecki] will be displayed in the Column Hall. A farewell for family and closest collaborators will take place. Then, at 13:00, the hall will be open to residents of Warsaw and friends, including MPs, of course. At 19:00, collaborators, friends, and our club will escort the Marshal Senior to the Field Cathedral of the Polish Army - stated Ryszard Terlecki at a briefing in the Sejm.
13:42
Terlecki:
We've struggled with healthcare problems throughout our term. It's the result of our predecessors' rule, who left it in this state. We are trying to improve it, we have done a lot. We have a plan for the future.
13:45
Terlecki:
Public Healthcare in Poland is Considered One of the Best in Europe
- I believe that both the sums allocated to healthcare, which are significantly larger, twice as large as before, and various other solutions, including expanding the pool of admissions to medical studies, will gradually, because this cannot be done overnight, radically improve the state of our healthcare. I want to remind you that public healthcare in Poland is considered one of the best in Europe - stated Ryszard Terlecki at a briefing in the Sejm.
16:11
Kaleta:
'Beetroot Juice' is the Biggest Systemic Platform for Destroying Political Opponents
- 'Beetroot Juice' is the biggest systemic platform for destroying political opponents with fake news and various defamatory content. Unfortunately, hundreds of different posts on this portal attest to the fact that such a mechanism has not existed in Polish politics before - said Sebastian Kaleta during a press briefing in front of the Warsaw TBS.
The councilor addressed the CEO of Warsaw TBS Południe - Adam Godusławski, with a request for intervention as a councilor, asking whether Mariusz Kozak-Zagozda had worked for the municipal company.
The CEO assured that the company will respond to the questions asked within the legally prescribed timeframe.

Müller:
No election campaign activities involving the Prime Minister until Saturday
- There will be no election campaign activities involving Prime Minister Morawiecki until Saturday. Therefore, in this regard, there will be no convention in the immediate future, until Saturday - stated Piotr Müller on Polish Radio 24.
17:52
Kidawa-Błońska:
There isn't a day without signals about hospital wards closing in Poland. We must rapidly start improving the healthcare system
18:42
Kaczyński:
Mobilization is Needed. These Elections, If We Assume High Mobilization, Would Be Almost Certainly Decided.
- Mobilization is needed. I can say that these elections, if we assume that mobilization will be really high, would be almost certainly, because in politics nothing is certain, but almost certainly decided. However, we still don't know what this level of mobilization will be. If I can make an appeal right now, a very heartfelt one to everyone who is watching and listening to us at this moment, it is precisely this: don't forget that you need to go to these elections and you need to encourage others to go. Because I know there are good polls, even very good ones. Only polls don't win elections. You win at the ballot box, and you simply have to convince yourself and others to be at the polling station and simply vote - stated Jarosław Kaczyński on TV Trwam.
18:42
Kaczyński:
If Major Opposition Forces Form a Common Government, Those Wanting Radical Destruction of Moral and Cultural Order Will Certainly Dominate
- When it comes to values, we will be dealing with this great LGBT offensive, an offensive of various kinds of social evil that is already supported today without any cover. Practically speaking, when it comes to these significant opposition forces, all of them, because while some are denying now that they didn't say what they said six months ago and didn't do what they did, if they form a common government, then those who want the radical destruction of the moral and cultural order in our country will certainly dominate - said Jarosław Kaczyński during an interview with Piotr Dettlaff on "Unfinished Conversations" on TV Trwam.
18:55
- You could say that it's the difference between choosing Poland plus, meaning a country where an intensive social policy is pursued, both in the sense of redistribution of goods and in the sense of raising wages, as well as various kinds of facilitation for business, and here we come to economic policy. An intensive development policy is pursued, from large investments to support for even the smallest ventures, and at the same time, all the efforts needed to conduct such a policy are undertaken, i.e., on the one hand, efforts aimed at repairing the state. The repair of public finances was of central importance, as were all efforts aimed at ensuring Poland's security – stated Jarosław Kaczyński on TV Trwam.
- On the other hand, we have Poland minus, that's how you could put it, where on the one hand, we will see a return to all those previous practices. So that the public has no illusions. All those initiatives aimed at improving the living standards of families will sooner or later be abolished. And that's because there is no will for it and because there is no skill. You have to know how to do it, how to govern – added the PiS chairman.
19:03
Kaczyński:
Media Unfriendly to Us Portray a Poland That Doesn't Exist, a Poland of Dictatorship and Authoritarianism
- On the other hand, we have a world of anti-facts. That is to say, Poland, which does not exist, is described by media unfriendly to us. A Poland of some dictatorship, authoritarianism. Of terrible events approaching. Nothing of the sort exists, has existed, and there has never been the slightest threat. All of this was invented solely for the purpose that the situation which existed in Poland for many, many years, which we call post-communism, we also distinguish late post-communism, this post-communism of the PO-PSL governments, so that this situation, where in Poland there was essentially only one elite, an elite that controlled practically all important points of social life, and the entire democratic mechanism was largely a sham, so that this state would return. Actually, this is formulated directly today. In various ways, PiS is discredited, but we are, one can say, already used to that, and increasingly sharply, also a large part of society that supports us. Some time ago, many years ago, there was talk of 'moher berets'. This has remained in public memory, it was Donald Tusk's first such statement, where he essentially stated that there are two kinds of Poles. The one who has the right to elect the authorities and the one who does not – stated Jarosław Kaczyński in TV Trwam.
19:10
Kaczyński:
Judicial Reform in Poland is Constitutionally Based, Not Prohibited by EU Treaties
- The Polish judiciary needs to be fixed. We emphasize that a reform of the Polish judiciary is needed, and this reform is based in the Constitution. There are constitutional provisions that precisely talk about judicial reform, about the right to reform the judiciary, and certain requirements that must be met, and we are ready to meet these requirements. These provisions also talk about the possibility of removing judges. Only under certain conditions. In short, we naturally do not want any conflicts with the EU, but we consider European treaties to be binding, and there is nothing in the treaties that states the EU can prohibit us from reforming the judiciary – stated Jarosław Kaczyński on TV Trwam.

Kaczyński:
Trzaskowski and Gronkiewicz-Waltz Faced Financial Troubles in Warsaw; My Brother Didn't
- When we came to power in 2005-2007, there was very good economic development, public finances were repaired, and we even left some money to our successors, because unfortunately we were overthrown. As soon as they came to power, in 2008 there was no economic crisis in Poland yet, but the deficit had already increased sharply. When Mr. Trzaskowski is in power in Warsaw now, and Ms. Gronkiewicz-Waltz was in power before, there were constant money problems. When my late brother was in power, there were no such money problems. It's simply a matter of a difference in the quality of governance - said Jarosław Kaczyński during a conversation with Piotr Dettlaff on "Unfinished Conversations" on TV Trwam.

Kaczyński:
We Don't Want to Limit Self-Government, But We Must Stop Tendencies That Extend Beyond It - The Creation of De Facto Autonomies
- We don't want to limit self-government. The tradition of self-government is also a very strong Polish tradition. We must remember this. Moreover, self-government is such an obvious part of a democratic state, the structure of a democratic state - said Jarosław Kaczyński during a conversation with Piotr Dettlaff on "Unfinished Conversations" on TV Trwam.
- However, we must stop tendencies that extend beyond self-government. Tendencies towards creating de facto autonomies are tendencies that are unlawful in light of the Polish constitution, which clearly states that Poland is a unified state, meaning unitary, not federal or para-federal - added the PiS leader.

One Thousand Hospital Beds Eliminated in Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship in Two Years. Is That Little? Meanwhile, We Hear That Polish Healthcare is Great.
- Information from today. An official written response to Member of Parliament Krzysztof Brejza. One thousand hospital beds have been eliminated in the Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship within two years. Is that little? This is happening within two years. At the same time, we hear that Polish healthcare is great. Has no one been to the Emergency Departments? Does no one see how individual departments are being closed? - said Bartłomiej Sienkiewicz in an interview with Dorota Gawryluk on the program "Gość Wydarzeń" on Polsat News.

Sienkiewicz:
I Clearly See Belief in Recent Weeks That It's Possible to Remove PiS From Power
- I don't see this loss of faith. Quite the opposite. I encounter the opposite on a daily basis. I clearly see in the last few weeks a belief that it's possible to remove PiS from power. The opposition can achieve a result that will make this possible. It is absolutely within reach - said Bartłomiej Sienkiewicz in an interview with Dorota Gawryluk on the program 'Guest of Events' on Polsat News.

Kaczyński:
In Poland, the choice is between Church teachings and nihilism
- Even if someone does not have the grace of faith, because faith is a grace, they must still realize, and I will repeat this, that in Poland, apart from some small groups who profess other value systems, but truly profess them, the choice is between what the Church teaches and what is essentially proclaimed outright, or somehow obscured, but in its essence, nihilism that differs in no way - said Jarosław Kaczyński in "Unfinished Conversations" on Radio Maryja.

ZNP Has a Leftist Tradition, and Unfortunately, in the Negative Sense. Today, It Acts as Part of an Alliance Against PiS
- The Polish Teachers' Union has a leftist tradition, and unfortunately, in the negative sense of the word. There are different leftist traditions. There is the PPS independence tradition, which can be considered part of what was good in Polish tradition. But this refers to the bad tradition. It adheres to this tradition and today simply acts as part of an alliance against Law and Justice, against the good change - said Jarosław Kaczyński in "Unfinished Conversations" on Radio Maryja.
