Dera:
Fortunately, the opposition today is the opposition and the ruling party is the ruling party
"Fortunately, the opposition today is the opposition and the ruling party is the ruling party, because if you look at how we fought and are fighting the coronavirus, Poland is among the top countries that are managing best. And what the opposition is doing is sowing panic," said Andrzej Dera in Woronicza 17.

Dera:
We are being kept up-to-date by the Prime Minister. There is no need to convene additional bodies to fulfill the opposition's wishes. The President has recognized that Poles are well-informed.
- We are being kept up-to-date by the Prime Minister. There is no need to convene additional bodies to fulfill the opposition's wishes. The President has recognized that Poles are well-informed, the debate is taking place in parliament, and there is no need to convene the National Security Council – Andrzej Dera said in Woronicza 17.

Konwiński:
I understand this is a delayed response to our appeal, but it's good that such a meeting is taking place. We want precise information from the Prime Minister on whether, after these few months, we are prepared.
- I understand this is a delayed response to our appeal, but it's good that such a meeting is taking place. The Prime Minister doesn't want to say how many ventilators are available. We want precise information from the Prime Minister on whether, after these few months, we are prepared. From the beginning of the pandemic, we talked about testing, and at that time, we were dismissed, and now it is admitted that this is the right direction. It is in our common interest for such a policy to be implemented - said Zbigniew Konwiński in Woronicza 17.

Bernacki:
We are learning that the highest model of universal civilization is democracy in its Brussels form
- We must view these phenomena as surprising. We are learning that the highest model of universal civilization is democracy in its Brussels form. We have already had such experiences, when in the 16th century we were accused of heading towards a republic, while the whole of Europe was moving towards absolutism. The concept of the rule of law has not been defined at all. It should be assessed exclusively by the judiciary, but the European Commission is becoming such a body, and perhaps the European Parliament, because unanimity is needed in the Council. Thirdly, money, and money again, which is needed to combat the post-pandemic crisis, because if it were cut off from Poland, it would be directed to other countries forming an alliance against Poland and Hungary - said Włodzimierz Bernacki in Woronicza 17.

Konwiński:
The Confederation of Targowica Were Those Who Opposed the Constitution
"The Confederation of Targowica were those who opposed the constitution. PiS lives in an analog world; there’s no need for anyone to report on Poland because all EU officials see what is happening in Poland," Zbigniew Konwiński said on Woronicza 17.

Dera:
Opposition's Strategy for the Judiciary is to Return to the Past. Changes Are Necessary Because Poles See the Poor State of the Judiciary
"The opposition's strategy for the judiciary is to go back to how it was. MP Neumann has also announced a strategy for judges, how they should behave, and how politicians from Civic Platform should be protected. Changes must happen because Poles see how bad the situation in the judiciary is," Andrzej Dera said on Woronicza 17.

Nowacka:
We Feel the Government Was Unprepared for the Second Wave. Ambulances in Queues, No Idea What to Do with the Economy if Another Lockdown Arrives, Because It Seems One Will Be Necessary
- We have a feeling the government was not prepared for the second wave. Ambulances in queues, no idea what to do with the economy when it enters another lockdown, because it looks like one will have to happen. The Prime Minister was not interested in informing the public in the Sejm about the government's plans. This should have been done on Wednesday; when an invitation comes, we will consider it. At the start of the school year, thanks to the opposition, some teachers and local government officials were finding out what the government intended to do. And now the Prime Minister is using the opposition as a fig leaf, saying he is talking to them to cover up the fact that there is no plan - said Barbara Nowacka on Polsat News's "Śniadanie" (Breakfast).

Czarzasty:
What does the government intend to do when daily infections reach 10 or 15 thousand? What will happen in a month?
- The government's arrogance in this matter is obvious, but I believe that people's health and lives are above this arrogance. If we go to this meeting, we would like to find out what the government intends to do. 500 out of 800 ventilators are occupied. 500 are in storage, there are no longer people to operate the additional ones. What does the government intend to do when daily infections reach 10 or 15 thousand? What will happen in a month? The entire summer was an opportunity to prepare well, but the arrogant ones, thinking only of their own positions, disregarded it - said Włodzimierz Czarzasty on "Śniadanie Polsat News".

Bosak:
The Ground is Burning Beneath Our Feet, and Responsibility Must Be Shared with Other Political Forces
"The ground is burning beneath our feet, and responsibility must be shared with other political forces. Over the last 5 years, one could count on the fingers of one hand the number of topics where the government deemed such consultations necessary," said Krzysztof Bosak during an interview on Polsat News's "Śniadanie" (Breakfast).

Soboń:
We Were Ready to Act Together, So Today the Opposition Should Not Be Sarcastic or Seek Political Tactics
- We are implementing a pact for health, which was signed by almost all political forces under extremely difficult conditions, as we, like the whole world, collided with an epidemic. We managed to get through the first wave much better than others. We were ready to act together, and therefore today the opposition should not be sarcastic or seek political tactics. We have tested 3.5 million Poles, we are conducting more and more tests, and we are better able to detect infections. We want to discuss this with the opposition; the economy has emerged from this situation with its head held high, we have excellent indicators compared to others, and we have increased spending on public institutions. One must have a false perception of reality to claim otherwise, and therefore it is even more necessary to meet with the Prime Minister to get a true picture - Artur Soboń said on Polsat News Breakfast.- We have secured an adequate supply of equipment at the Material Reserves Agency - Soboń added.

"- A significant portion of the opposition fails to grasp the gravity of the situation and is playing political games. One can disagree with the Prime Minister, but saying we will consider and set conditions demonstrates a lack of responsibility for the state. Creating panic, which the opposition will sooner or later fall victim to. The number of fatal accidents in Poland is 1.3, in Spain it's 5. Poland ranks in the third decade of European countries regarding new cases per 100,000 people," said Andrzej Zybertowicz on Polsat News's "Śniadanie" (Breakfast).

Bosak:
Opposition politicians, apart from Konfederacja, prey on fear as they have nothing to say, and the Left helped PiS raise taxes
- I will not join the atmosphere of fear that politicians are creating. The situation is difficult for those who are ill, but it is also difficult for those who suffer from other ailments and are not diagnosed. Autumn will pass, the peak will pass, and we will be left with double taxation of limited partnerships and increased debt, and this is just the beginning, with a limited abolition relief and a liquidated meat processing sector. Opposition politicians, apart from Konfederacja, prey on fear as they have nothing to say, and the Left helped PiS raise taxes - said Krzysztof Bosak on Polsat News.

Soboń:
Opposition's Tactic is Self-Incriminating Fear-Mongering; Strategic Reserves Ensure Medical Equipment Availability
"The opposition's tactic is one that casts them in the worst possible light. It is solely about frightening people. You will hear about how long the Material Reserves Agency has secured equipment; there are at least another one and a half thousand ventilators. The meeting with the Prime Minister serves to convey this information, as well as about the variants of action. We cannot allow the economy to collapse; we must create a balance," said Artur Soboń in an interview with Polsat News's "Śniadanie".

Kosiniak:
What's Causing the Sudden Increase? Because Schools Were Opened, Where the Greatest Transmission Occurs. It's Unfolding Uncontrollably
- They fell into their own trap by saying the epidemic is receding. By creating a relaxed atmosphere, they led to 30% of young people not believing in the pandemic. They have brought the healthcare system into complete disarray. The most important thing is to maintain the stability of the healthcare system. Today, this is not happening; doctors and nurses are mentally and physically exhausted. There is a shortage of protective equipment. We said: do not open schools. What's causing the sudden increase? Because schools were opened, where the greatest transmission occurs. It's unfolding uncontrollably - said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz on 'Kawa na Ławę'.

Dziambor:
Sadly, People Are Still Dying Despite All Restrictions. I'm in a Risk Group Myself, an Asthmatic, But There's No Other Way, as We're Ruining the Economy by Getting Sick
"The number of coronavirus patients who need to be put on a ventilator is just a small few percent, maybe, and most people have no symptoms or mild ones. Hospitals have suddenly stopped treating and diagnosing other patients; we'll soon have colossal problems with cancer. Over 80% of people currently hospitalized with coronavirus don't need to be hospitalized – these are professors' data. We will develop immunity, and this virus will continue to spread. Well, sadly, the reality is that people are dying now despite all these restrictions. We have them all, and unfortunately, people are dying and getting sick, which I regret. I myself am in a risk group, an asthmatic, but there's no other way, because by getting sick, we are ruining the economy," said Artur Dziambor in "Kawa na Ławę".

Moskal:
Over 90% of Cattle Exports Go to EU; Arab Countries Represent None, Israel a Marginal Part
- In 2017, a similar bill was introduced to the Sejm. We are trying, and I hope more effectively this time, to introduce social changes - stated Michał Moskal on TV Republika.
- Coalition negotiations were also characterized by the fact that we had to say - let's check - within the coalition. Do we, as a group, have the same goals we've been talking about for some time, and are we loyal to each other? It turned out that not everyone [...] But we will emerge from this crisis stronger [...] Ardanowski, as a member of PiS, has been suspended due to his actions. There was a fundamental disagreement in his activities, but Ardanowski also clearly did not do his homework; he did not read the provisions of the bill we are proposing - he continued.
- In the context of the bill's proceedings in the Sejm - the way Marshal Grodzki organizes discussions around this bill is scandalous. He allows people accused of animal cruelty to speak [...] We are preparing a number of amendments - for example, issues of compensation, technical and legislative matters, numbering, the issue of ritual slaughter, and there will be an extension of the vacatio legis - he noted.
