Biedroń's Press Conference Disrupted: "I love President Duda and Morawiecki"

During a press conference in the center of Warsaw, Robert Biedroń announced the relaunch of his election campaign.

- Nothing about you without you. This is the most important motto of my campaign. A campaign that we are reviving today after this great pandemic. A campaign with which we are setting off across Poland today. In a moment, I will board a train and head out into the Poland that I know well. I don't observe it from the Warsaw City Hall, I don't watch it on TVN programs, but I observe it every day as it is. Poland with its successes and problems - stated the presidential candidate.

- If we want to count ourselves, then these elections are the best opportunity to show how many people of goodwill there are, how many people who have dreams of a better Poland. Of a Poland that is a community, not a party interest. I invite all of you to this, including you, madam - said Biedroń, addressing a woman who approached him.

Biedroń began to talk with her. She asked him questions.

- Why didn't they let me into Reytan? - Biedroń repeated the question. - Yes, madam, you remind me of the moment when I wasn't allowed into Reytan, into one of the Warsaw high schools, as I understand it - he said.
- I taught nature there - the woman stated.
- Really? Wonderful. You taught nature there and you remember the moment when I wasn't allowed into that Reytan. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, they didn't let me in because of that - he tried to continue.

At that point, the woman stated that during the visit in question, Biedroń was called a "faggot".

- Exactly. They said that. Exactly. Thank you very much, madam - said Biedroń, trying to interrupt the woman.

The woman left, only to return to Biedroń a moment later and effectively take control of the microphone.

- I love President Duda and Morawiecki. And you know what, my uncle fought at Monte Cassino and they conquered the f***ing Benedictine monastery. And our anthem should be, like this - at this point, the woman began to intone "Rota".

- Do you agree that Poland should be for everyone? - Biedroń asked the woman.
- No, for Poles - she replied.
- Ladies and gentlemen, and that is why Poland should be for everyone - Biedroń tried to continue speaking.

A moment later, the woman completely took over the microphone. Biedroń stepped aside.

- Our president is Duda, and our prime minister is Morawiecki. And you know what? Listen. I'm not afraid. My mother-in-law is the godmother of Leszek Miller, that scoundrel from Żyrardów. So what? - she said, and then began to intone a song about red poppies.

- Do you know who Bandera was? - she still shouted at Biedroń. Then she was politely asked by Lewica activists to leave the conference, which Biedroń then continued.
