Petru:
Our Electorate Stayed Home Because We Didn't Mobilize Them
- I am disappointed with our overall result. I believe that Trzecia Droga received a very poor outcome. This is because our electorate stayed home, and why did they stay home? Because we didn't mobilize them. We need to take responsibility, to come out with projects that were close to us during the parliamentary election campaign, and not to go solely for compromises that sometimes turn out to be rotten compromises - stated Ryszard Petru in an interview with Beata Lubecka on Radio Zet.
08:16
- I was not, for example, in favor of voting for the 'babciowe' (grandmother's benefit), because it was not our program. We had previously submitted various comments on it. It doesn't matter, it has already happened. I believe we must submit our bills very clearly, which is why today we are submitting a bill to lower the health contribution for employees and entrepreneurs. This way, every citizen will benefit. There is no one who will lose - stated Ryszard Petru on Radio Zet.

Petru on Hołownia’s Candidacy:
He Has a Great Advantage Over Other Candidates.
- I am convinced that he will run [in the presidential election]. Of course, we are waiting for Szymon Hołownia’s declaration. He has a great advantage over other candidates because he has a sensitivity that is natural to him when it comes to residents of small towns and smaller cities, which other candidates do not possess - stated Ryszard Petru on Radio Zet.
08:40
Petru on the Trzaskowski-Hołownia Second Round Scenario:
This Would Finish Off PiS.
- I believe it is not impossible, [Szymon Hołownia] could defeat the PiS candidate and advance to the second round with Rafał Trzaskowski, which would be of the greatest value for the Polish political scene, because it would truly finish off PiS - stated Ryszard Petru on Radio Zet.
08:42
Petru:
The Third Way Should Ultimately Be an Alternative to What the United Right Proposes, but Programmatically
- The Third Way should ultimately be an alternative to what the United Right proposes, but programmatically, not ideologically, because ideologically, PiS's proposals are unacceptable, and in the longer term, Szymon Hołownia's start would be something that could rearrange the political scene anew – stated Ryszard Petru on Radio Zet.

Nowacka:
The Ideal School Separates the Sacred from the Profane
- When shaping the curriculum, we cannot differentiate it. It's as if we said that in one region they would have less mathematics, and in another less chemistry, just so they could choose. What is possible is that local governments or churches will make autonomous decisions, that they will decide to fund an additional hour [of religious education] with their own money, they have the right to such a decision, but the decision must be consistent for the state; education is universal – stated Barbara Nowacka on Polsat News's "Graffiti" program.
- The concordat can be negotiated, but as far as I know, there is no political will for that at the moment. However, the ideal school is one where the sphere of the sacred is separated from the sphere of the profane, but I am aware that this one hour of religion is what we will manage to achieve – she continued.
- Of course, I would prefer there to be religious studies, but there is the concordat, so my preference must be within the framework of the rule of law, and on the other hand, elements concerning religious studies are present in history and Polish language classes, for example – she added.
09:15
Nowacka:
Civil Partnerships Are a Civilizational Norm
- Civil partnerships are a civilizational norm. It is truly a moral shame that Poland has not yet introduced civil partnerships, because they are for the good, for the good of the individuals who wish to enter into these unions. For ensuring their safety, often for the good and safety of children. I have no doubt that adoption is already happening and would be a legal sanctioning of the current state, precisely for the benefit of the child – said Barbara Nowacka on Polsat News.

- A major spending review of the entire television [TVP] is needed. It should slim down. I am in favour of restructuring the Polish budget, public finances, and TVP - stated Ryszard Petru on Radio Zet.

Tusk Publishes New Recording:
We'll Catch Them.
- Fentanyl, duch, Żuromin – these are symbolic words, symbols of this 21st-century poison, which is fentanyl and other types of drugs that are claiming deadly tolls worldwide and are also beginning to do so in Poland. Ten days ago, when I requested a meeting with the Prosecutor General, the Minister of Health, and the police chiefs, I had only one message – you must catch them. And today's operation, during which 5 people, including the infamous 'duch' (ghost/spirit), were apprehended, is just the beginning of this great pursuit of everyone who endangers the health and lives of our children, young Polish women, and young Polish men. Because it primarily concerns them. And this one sentence – you must catch them – will accompany our work every day. No one in Poland involved in this damned drug business will remain safe. I guarantee you that – said Prime Minister Donald Tusk in a recording published on social media.

Morawiecki on Healthcare Salaries:
A Gigantic Increase Achieved Thanks to PiS Rule.
- Although I have the impression that there is still a lot to be done here, I believe that if someone objectively or even dispassionately looks at it, abstracting from any political connotations about what was before, here one of the gentlemen said that during the previous administration of Ewa Kopacz, a doctor earned 3.5 thousand zlotys, now around 10 thousand. This is, however, a gigantic increase that was achieved thanks to the PiS government - stated Mateusz Morawiecki during the "Work for Poland" Team debate.
