Morawiecki in a Clip: Only PiS Can Stop the "Coalition of Chaos"
Inicjatywa Polska, PO, the Green Party, Poland 2050, UED, PSL, The Left Together, New Left. Do you know what this list is? It's a recipe for chaos, for a coalition of chaos. Eight leaders, eight different programs, eight parties. It's a recipe for Poland to stand still for years, to sink into lethargy. Problems will return, unemployment, precarious contracts, work for 5 PLN. There is a better plan. Life like in the West, without all those Western immigration problems - that means a lower retirement age, a ban on selling off assets, protecting Poland from forced relocation. Only PiS can stop the coalition of chaos. On October 15th, only PiS - says Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki in a new PiS clip.

10:34

Hołownia:

Reconciliation - the Most Important Task for the Future Government. Only Then Will We Be Safe
- What the future government will do, and has to do, is to secure Poland, and it can be secured primarily by having - and I guarantee this - a government that we will create and co-create. Reconciliation - this is the most important thing this future government has to do - said Szymon Hołownia during the Third Way convention in Krakow. - It must introduce honest and fair taxes. It must create a school for our times, but it must be a government of reconciliation. Reconciliation of Poles with Poles - only then will we be safe, we will be able to face all the challenges that this world brings. [...] We must finally reconcile with each other - he continued.

10:43

Trzaskowski:

This is the final stretch, these are truly fundamental elections concerning our freedom

- This is the final stretch, and these are truly absolutely fundamental elections because these elections concern our freedom, our personal freedom, so that no one tells us how to live, doesn't try to dictate how we navigate reality - stated Rafał Trzaskowski in Bielsko-Biała.


10:48

Trzaskowski:

We Want a Good, Polish Tradition We Can Draw From and Be Proud Of
Nobody wants to attack tradition, nobody wants to attack faith. We just want to draw from the best tradition that exists in our history. We don't want to bring out the worst, like PiS does, which tries to reach for the worst possible traditions, for communist propaganda, for attempts to vilify other people. We don't want that kind of tradition. We want the good, Polish tradition, from which we can draw and of which we can be proud. We want a Poland that is open, tolerant, where there is no inciting hatred against anyone - stated Rafał Trzaskowski in Bielsko-Biała.

10:52

Hołownia:

For Weeks, the Wind Has Been Filling Our Sails, and All Those Gloomy Wailers Marching Behind Us Are Slowly Opening Their Eyes
- You see that for weeks now, the wind has been filling our sails. That all those gloomy wailers who marched behind our procession, the Third Way, are slowly starting to open their eyes and say: "Oh my, this is actually working." Yes, my dears, it is working. The Third Way is working, the Third Way will get the job done - said Szymon Hołownia during the Third Way convention in Krakow.

10:54

Trzaskowski:

The One Who Was Supposed to Face Tusk Decided to Flee. I Understand Him – He's Detached from Reality

- Look, the one who was supposed to face Donald Tusk decided to flee. But I understand him, because he is so detached from reality that suddenly all of Poland would see that this person has no idea what country he lives in – stated Rafał Trzaskowski in Bielsko-Biała.


10:56

Kosiniak-Kamysz to Kaczyński: Some are eternally young, some are eternally old, it's a matter of character, not calendars
- You see what bad politics leads to, that we forget about all that is important. These latest attacks on the Third Way, these latest attacks on us from the PiS leader are not accidental. They already know well that it's either the Third Way or PiS's third term. This is the choice we will face in the coming days. This is the most valuable, most precious vote, it truly changes Poland and recently I even heard that the leader referred to my age, so being from Krakow, I want to quote and dedicate to him a epigram by Sztaudynger, a Krakow poet who brought joy, and this joy is also needed. Some are eternally young, some are eternally old, it's a matter of character, not calendars - stated Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz during the Third Way convention in Krakow.

BGK:

Eighth Edition of the Strategic Investment Program Concluded. Funding Granted to 2876 Local Governments and JST Associations

The results of the eighth edition of the Strategic Investment Program are now known. All local government units (JST) and JST associations in the country were eligible to submit applications for investment co-financing. The total co-financing granted amounts to nearly PLN 26 billion for the implementation of almost 5,200 projects.

Most funds were allocated to road infrastructure investments (PLN 11.1 billion), water and sewage infrastructure (PLN 4.2 billion), and sports infrastructure (PLN 2.4 billion). The results of the eighth edition of the Strategic Investment Program are available on the website of the Chancellery of the Prime Minister. Local government officials will also find co-financing information in the Polski Ład Application. The Strategic Investment Program is a government program to support investments implemented by local government units. It was launched in 2021 to stimulate public investment and the economy affected by the economic consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic. Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego (BGK) is the operator of the Strategic Investment Program – it received applications through the Polski Ład application and will disburse funds from the program. Applications submitted by local governments were analyzed by the committee for program support operating at the Chancellery of the Prime Minister. The committee prepared recommendations based on which the Prime Minister decided on the granting of co-financing. More information is available on the Program website.

Hołownia:

Kaczyński May Flee to the Galapagos, But We'll Catch Him Even There
- We are an example of how to share work sensibly. You know that on Monday I'm going to that, God help us, debate on TVP. It's a debate where everyone can speak for a total of 7 minutes each and there can be no interaction between debaters. It's a test, a quiz, but one must be there out of respect for Polish women and men. Władek will be at the same time where Kaczyński is fleeing – in Przysucha. So that Kaczyński feels his breath on his neck and knows that he cannot escape from change. He may flee to the Galapagos, but we will catch him even there, meet him and say: Mr. Chairman, it's time – said Szymon Hołownia during the Third Way convention in Krakow.

11:12

Kosiniak-Kamysz:

Enough Waste, Enough Handouts, Enough Indebting Future Generations
- We are a coalition for Polish entrepreneurs, we are formations that care for active people and working people. That is why we say, and we repeat once again: enough waste, enough handouts, enough indebting future generations, enough false prescriptions – said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz during the Third Way convention in Krakow.

11:34

Kosiniak-Kamysz:

The Rulers Are Trying to Convince Us They're Acting Against Faith and Believers. It's Utter Nonsense and Hypocrisy
- Today, we are being condemned by the rulers, stripped of honor and faith. They are trying to convince us of some actions against faith, against believers. This is utter nonsense and hypocrisy. This is a great injustice for what you have done over the last 8 years in an alliance of the throne with the altar - said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz during the Third Way convention in Krakow.

11:45

Kosiniak-Kamysz:

We Promise Patriotism Without Pretentiousness, Progress Without Madness, a Strong State Without Authoritarianism
- To all those who hesitate, who are still wondering, we want to promise and we do promise patriotism without pretentiousness, progress without madness, a strong state without authoritarianism, and finally, work that pays off and is worthwhile. A good manager, not a bad master who only imposes constant taxes, new burdens, and whips those who think differently. This is the Poland of our dreams, to which we will lead: better, normal, careful, respecting the dignity and sensitivity of every person - said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz during the Third Way convention in Krakow.

12:00

Hołownia:

They Tinkered with the Electoral Code, Created 3,000 New Polling Stations, Mainly Where the Opposition Wins. They Even Stumbled Over Their Own Feet Here
- These people not only know how to ruin everything, but they also know how to ruin what they thought would allow them to continue ruining things. This is the Olsen Gang cubed. Let's remember these times, this moment well. Let's take some screenshots, photos, record videos, because we won't be watching such a farce, of course, masked by drama, for much longer. We are closing it down for good this year – said Szymon Hołownia during the Third Way convention in Krakow.

- Do you remember when they started tinkering with the electoral code and it turned out that more polling stations needed to be created in small towns, because people in villages vote for PiS more often, and 6,000 were supposed to be created. Do you know how many they managed to create? 3,000, a little over 3,000, and do you know where? Mainly where the opposition wins, they even stumbled over their own feet here. Thank you, Mr. Kaczyński, for this from the bottom of our hearts – he continued.

12:09

Hołownia:

In 200 Hours, Four Leaders Will Shake Hands on Stage. A Government of National Cooperation Will Emerge
- Do you know what will happen in these 200 hours? I've already said it – there will be four leaders who will shake hands on stage. It will be a government of national cooperation. It won't be a Civic Platform government or a Law and Justice government; it will be a government of national cooperation. A government of hope, which will talk honestly with you about what needs to be done. It will be a government of a modern, democratic Poland, of patriots and Europeans, those from the countryside and the city, those who want to move faster but will wait for those who need to go slower, and those who need to go slower will understand those who are already eager for change – said Szymon Hołownia during the Third Way convention in Krakow.

12:15

Tusk:

I Have to Get My Phone Out to Read What the Chief Liar of the Republic Vetoed at the EU Summit

I have to get my phone out to read to you what the Chief Liar of the Republic, Prime Minister Morawiecki, vetoed. He claims that at the EU summit, he suddenly decided to care about our borders, the integrity of our borders, the security of our territory. So, he decided to veto regulations that the EU wants to introduce, and these regulations concern the EU's partnership with countries of origin of migrants, meaning a partnership that is meant to help stop people who want to leave their countries of origin, so that they have a reason to stay in those countries. Prime Minister Morawiecki vetoed a proposal concerning the protection of EU borders, including the protection of Poland's borders, and we are talking here also about billions of zlotys that would be used for the protection of Polish borders, just like any other European border – stated Donald Tusk in Płock.


12:36

Tusk:

Kaczyński Handed Over PiS Leadership to My Former Advisor. This is My Greatest Political Triumph in History

- Thank you for the applause; perhaps it will encourage someone, for example Jarosław Kaczyński, to debate. Yesterday in Przemyśl, I was already calling out: Jarek, where are you, don't hide. We have a debate on Monday, after all. Unfortunately, as you've noticed, he decided to step down from the de facto political leadership role and handed over the role of PiS leader to my former advisor. This is my greatest political triumph in history - stated Donald Tusk in Płock.


12:37

Tusk on Kaczyński: He Invented Such a Set and Script, But In the End He Backed Down

- Kaczyński, in my opinion, will go down in history, perhaps he'll find himself in the Guinness Book of Records. To have his own television, his own hosts, to dictate the questions for this debate, to set the order, the surprises they had prepared. One way or another, I am ready for any variant and any surprise, but he invented such a set and script, and in the end he backed down. I have truly never seen anything like this in my life - stated Donald Tusk in Płock.


12:48

Tusk:

This Great Void Left by Kaczyński in the Studio Might Signal to PiS Voters That Something Is Amiss

- For him, the real problem is that such a debate, even if they stand on their heads, even if they turn off the lights, give me horns, or make me an ultra-redhead, or put German subtitles when I speak, God knows what will come to their minds, but, anyway, they probably won't turn off my microphone, but if they do, perhaps that silence will speak more to those people who have been fed only lies so far. Perhaps that silence, or the manipulations, or the lies they invent, and that absence, that great absence, that great void left by Kaczyński in the studio, maybe that will be a signal for PiS voters, that something is not right, that they are truly afraid of a few words that capture reality, that they are panicking about the truth, even if it only lasts for a second or half a minute on state television. For them, this is a truly unbearable thought - stated Donald Tusk in Płock.


12:52

Tusk:

I Will Do Everything for October 15, 2023, to Be the First Day of Our Renewed, Reborn Republic

- You know me a bit by now, I will truly do everything for October 15, 2023, to be the first day of our renewed, reborn Republic, with free Polish women, with free Polish men, with dignity, with truth, with honesty – Donald Tusk stated in Płock.


12:52

Kwaśniewski:

Poland Needs a Coalition of Democratic Opposition Parties, with the Left Playing a Key Role. Votes for the Left are a Good Investment
- I have always voted for the Left. My heart is on the left. I will do so once again with conviction, with the certainty that it is a well-placed vote, that it will not be wasted, that Polish democracy needs MPs and Senators from the Left - said Aleksander Kwaśniewski in a previously recorded statement, played during the Left's convention in Będzin. Despite the announcement, the former president did not appear in person at the event due to health reasons. - 4 years ago I voted for New the Left and I can say it was a successful investment. That over the past 4 years, the formation, shaped with difficulty, which had to overcome many thresholds, has shown that it is very much needed by Poland and Polish democracy. It has shown that it is clear, consistent, and that it has excellent politicians. Today we are facing further elections and in my opinion, for people of the left, the choice must be clear - it is a vote cast for the candidates of the Left - he continued. - Poland needs a coalition that will be created by the parties of today's democratic opposition, but in which the Left will play an important role. The Left is a guarantor of women's rights, a secular state. The Left is a guarantor that we will achieve decisive progress in public services […]. It is also a guarantor that Poland will be taken seriously in Europe and will work towards a strong, united Europe - he continued. - I appeal to those who have always voted for the Left, just like me. Do not forget to cast this vote again on October 15th. I appeal to those who doubted, who in the meantime looked for other parties and other coalitions, or stayed at home. Today is the time to return, the time to trust New the Left once again. And I appeal to those who have never voted for the Left, especially young people. If you look at the programs, at the people, if you assess their consistency and credibility, you will see that a vote for the Left will not be wasted. […] Let's vote for the candidates of the Left. These will be well-invested votes - he appealed.

12:58

Tusk:

Anyone Who Understands the Situation of Polish Women Has No Right to Look in the Mirror and Say – I Will Vote for PiS or Konfederacja

- Anyone who understands the situation of Polish women, the youngest, teenage girls, and the oldest generation, truly has no right to look in the mirror and say, "I will vote for PiS or Konfederacja" and at the same time, "I love my wife, or mother, or daughter, or sister." No one who genuinely wants to reverse this tragedy for Polish women, no one who loves their mother, daughter, wife, or sister, can pretend not to know what hell they will prepare for Polish women – stated Donald Tusk in Płock.


13:01

Kaczyński on a potential opposition government: It will be a constant squabble, a clash of groups

- It will be a constant squabble, a clash of groups, a clash of individuals, a hurrah of ambitious people, because in some of these parties there are two leaders, because they are so ambitious that they can't even choose one, and as for deputies, for example on the Left, I can't even count them. So, when all of this comes together and wants to govern, even if they had good intentions and programs, which they don't, it would truly be disastrous, simply bad. It's a kind of evil that will be present in every situation, even if there were no war or crises - stated Jarosław Kaczyński in Białystok.


13:03

Kaczyński:

Tusk said the president's resolve will crumble. We'll see whose crumbles

- Not only are they an enormously inconsistent group themselves, but they also want to wage war with the president. Tusk has already said that the president's resolve will crumble. We'll see whose crumbles. They want to forcibly remove the President of the Constitutional Tribunal, meaning a woman, from the Constitutional Tribunal. Strong men are supposed to come, and also strong men, because it's about a man, so maybe this is a bit less compromising, but also terribly compromising, are supposed to come to the National Bank, etc., etc. One big brawl - stated Jarosław Kaczyński in Białystok.


13:05

Czarzasty:

The Opposition Will Win These Elections, We Will Create a Wise, Sensible Government
- The opposition will win these elections, the opposition will govern after October 15th. I promise you this. We will create a wise, sensible government, we will be credible. Do you know why the polls are going up for us, why we are doing better and better in this campaign? Because we are calm, detached, and we know what we want – said Włodzimierz Czarzasty during the Left convention in Będzin.

13:06

Kaczyński:

Every vote for the opposition, including Konfederacja, is effectively a vote for Tusk as Prime Minister

- Every vote for the opposition, including Konfederacja, is effectively a vote for Donald Tusk as Prime Minister. And now we must ask ourselves one more question: why did Donald Tusk return to Poland? I said at our party's convention that there is such a thing as the Tusk system. In short, he is returning here precisely to restore that system - stated Jarosław Kaczyński in Białystok.


13:16

Tusk:

In a Way, They Wanted to Enroll Forests and Trees in PiS. Since Forests and Trees Cannot Be Enrolled in PiS, They Started Cutting Them Down

- I don't know who in PiS invented this lie, which was born perhaps in 2003 or 2004, so a very long time ago, and someone threw out the suggestion that Tusk and Civic Platform want to privatize forests. Every time there are elections, they repeat this fairy tale. I was Prime Minister for 8 years, did you see or hear about any attempt to privatize forests? They told these fairy tales all the time, and in the end, they did something even worse than privatization. They politicized Polish forests, not just state forests, as an investment, I'm talking about the authorities, but in a way, they wanted to enroll forests and trees in PiS. Since forests and trees cannot be enrolled in PiS, they started cutting them down – stated Donald Tusk in Płock.


13:20

Kaczyński:

Serious, Tangible Inflation Unlikely Next Year

- Inflation next year, a serious, tangible one, is almost certainly not going to happen, unless something new occurs in the world. So, we are able to cope with this and we are able to reach 80% of the EU average, a result that has never been achieved in Poland's history - stated Jarosław Kaczyński in Białystok.


13:27

Tusk:

If Someone Seeks Revenge, They Should Find Another Leader

- Even if it costs me some time, nerves, and risk, I will not back down. If someone seeks revenge, they should find another leader, another party. I will seek justice. I will seek the rule of law - stated Donald Tusk in Płock.


13:36

Czarzasty on TVP Debate: We are a Party of Women, and Women Should Represent Us. There Will Be No Changes to Decisions
- A discussion has been raging online since yesterday about whether it's good that a woman will be representing The Left at Monday's debate. I want to tell you this: it's not enough to talk about women having rights. They also have voices, they have reason, they should represent themselves, firmly. It's not a case of us saying: women have rights, they will have rights, we promise you this, we males. No, women must take this into their own hands - said Włodzimierz Czarzasty during The Left's convention in Będzin. A moment later, the audience began chanting the name “Joanna”. - Anyone could have gone. Recently, on October 1st, a certain march happened, and people told me: don't go, don't make that decision, let The Left not go there, let them not stand next to that Tusk […]. And what happened? - he asked. - Trust us, please, for a few more days regarding the campaign strategy. We are doing this to show what our values are. […] If we are a party of women and don't treat them like ornaments, then women should co-govern in this party and represent us alongside the prime minister and former prime minister - he continued. - To be clear, in a calm and firm voice – there will be no changes to decisions, no wavering. Because this is how it should be, and this is how it should function, because The Left is simply consistent - he emphasized.

13:59

Zandberg:

We Set Ourselves an Important Task – We Must Defeat Konfederacja. We Are Succeeding, We Are Now Overtaking Them
- A few weeks ago, at the start of this campaign, we set ourselves a very important task: we must defeat Konfederacja. We must defeat the far-right; they must not be allowed into government. And now we can see that this is succeeding, that we are overtaking them, that this goal will be achieved. We will defeat the brownshirts - said Adrian Zandberg during the Lewica convention in Będzin. - I want to say very clearly and unequivocally, because unfortunately there are different voices on this matter among the democratic formations. We will never agree to a government with Konfederacja. Lewica will never enter a government with the brownshirts. [...] The brownshirts, the far-right, should not be coddled, petted, or ingratiated with. They must be defeated and thrown out of parliament - he emphasized.

14:15

Tusk:

I Will Fiercely Ensure No Foolishness, Disputes, or Party Interests Prolong Government Formation

- After winning the elections, of course, we will have a brief discussion about forming a government. Brief, because every hour and every day is precious. I will fiercely ensure that no foolishness, disputes, or party interests prolong this process, and that this government is formed as quickly as possible - stated Donald Tusk in Płock.


14:16

Tusk:

Reclaiming Public Media for Poles is a Matter of One Decision and One Day
We have developed three scenarios; all three are in line with the constitution, legal, lawful, and each of these scenarios enables the cleansing of public television from these party appointees and behaviors literally within a single day. Thus, reclaiming public media for Polish women and men is a matter of one decision and one day – stated Donald Tusk in Płock.

14:17

Tusk:

The Referendum Question is Justified, but it Needs a Slight Change

- I took the liberty of making such a remark, but it is not a joke. I seriously believe that this referendum question, it is justified, only it needs a slight change. Are you in favour of building a barrier on the Polish-Belarusian border that will protect us from illegal migration, because currently there isn't one. That is the problem - stated Donald Tusk in Płock.


17:22

Morawiecki:

We Recovered 260 Billion Stolen by Our Predecessors

- We fixed the state budget. I often say this, but I will repeat it here. We recovered 260 billion stolen by our predecessors. I am saying this loudly in the hope that I will receive a lawsuit under election law. I am not receiving this lawsuit, which means they are admitting that this money was stolen by VAT mafias and by criminals, stolen and misappropriated also by people from Civic Platform (PO), who were also involved in various criminal activities. This has also been demonstrated by the courts - stated Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki at the Local Government Conference in the Silesian Voivodeship.


17:29

Morawiecki:

We Will Focus Job Creation Programs on Smaller Towns and Rural Areas
If voters trust us. If here in Silesia, in the Silesian Voivodeship, in the Dąbrowa Basin, you trust us, dear compatriots, dear Silesians, dear residents of the Dąbrowa Basin, dear inhabitants of the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland, inhabitants of Częstochowa and its surroundings. If you trust us, we will focus the program for creating new jobs in smaller towns, in rural areas, and we know how to do it, and we have proven it over the last 8 years. The best confirmation of this is precisely job creation and the lowest unemployment in history – stated Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki at a Local Government Conference in the Silesian Voivodeship.

17:33

Morawiecki:

When I ask at meetings if anyone has returned from abroad, it's often not single hands, but a forest of hands
- Here in Katowice, as well as Krakow and other larger centers, a multitude of investments have appeared. They have also appeared in Zabrze, Ruda Śląska, Mysłowice, Siemianowice. These are state investments, private investments, many foreign, but also Polish investors. All of these, combined with the development of infrastructure: roads and railways […], but also investments in energy, fiber optics, and other elements of the entire economic infrastructure - all of these have resulted in us having the lowest unemployment in the history of the Republic of Poland in Silesia today - stated Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki during the Local Government Conference in the Silesian Voivodeship.

- That, viewed from the other side, we have the most jobs. That Poles are returning from emigration to Silesia, Poles who left over the last 15 years, and especially over the 8 years of our predecessors. At recent meetings with people, open meetings, I ask if anyone has returned from abroad. And very often, it's not single hands raised, but a forest of hands. This is only possible because these two lungs of economic development, directed by public administration, meaning local and government, are working in parallel, evenly […]. Probably for the first time in the history of the Republic of Poland, we are creating so many jobs that our compatriots who left the Republic of Poland in recent years, decades, are returning to us - he continued.

18:43

Kaczyński:

Even Pensions in Poland Were Determined by Merkel's Phone Calls. I'm Not Sure Gomułka Had to Listen to Khrushchev, Then Brezhnev, on Such Matters.

- Even pensions in Poland were determined on the basis that Mrs. Merkel would call and say what pensions in Poland should be. I am not even sure if Gomułka had to listen to Khrushchev first, and then Brezhnev, on such matters. Probably not, it seems to me not - stated Jarosław Kaczyński in Lublin.


18:51

Kaczyński:

The entire reset was carried out solely so that Tusk would receive a high position in the EU, as if as a reward from Merkel

- Why was this reset carried out? Of course, the real reason was for Tusk to receive a high position in the European Union. It was a privatization of politics, but this high position in the European Union depended primarily on Germany, and specifically on one person – Angela Merkel. And this entire reset was carried out solely so that this position would be given, as if as a reward for the fact that the situation Germany expects, a weak Poland, is in fact a German sphere of influence. They would prefer it to be decisive, but also Russian – stated Jarosław Kaczyński in Lublin.

Kaczyński on Tusk: This Man is Anti-State and Heads an Anti-State Party

- This government and Tusk are announcing it, although recently he has been talking about it much less or even not at all. He announces that he will wage war with the president and that the president's resolve will crumble. I already said this a few hours ago, how it will be, I won't repeat it, but I will say one thing. If any serious politician refers to the head of state in this way, it is a very, very bad thing. It is simply anti-state. This man is anti-state and heads an anti-state party - stated Jarosław Kaczyński in Lublin.
