Błaszczak on Brzoska's Involvement in Deregulation:

Isn’t the Point for Poczta Polska to Cease to Exist?

– We are hearing about deregulation. Deregulation in Donald Tusk’s government, in the government of the December 13 coalition, is to be carried out not by a minister, but by an entrepreneur. Moreover, an entrepreneur who owns a company competitive with Poczta Polska – said Mariusz Błaszczak at a press conference.

– I pose the question: isn’t the point for Poczta Polska to cease to exist? Isn’t the point that, as in the 90s, Polish enterprises were reduced and closed down? The scheme was identical: first, it was said that the enterprise was not coping in the market. Then restructuring was carried out, meaning employees were laid off, and then the company ceased to exist, and other companies, private companies, foreign companies, took its place in the market – he continued.

– We must not allow such a scenario to be realized today, when it comes to Poczta Polska. That is why we are protesting, that is why Law and Justice parliamentarians will undertake many actions in the Sejm to express their protest and solidarity with the employees of Poczta Polska – he went on to say.

– The layoff of 15% of the staff is unacceptable. The layoff of over 9,000 Poczta Polska employees will mean a paralysis for this company. This must not be allowed to happen. In this matter, we will also question the Prime Minister and the Minister of State Assets, because leaving this matter on the sidelines, with only the management talking to the trade unions, is, in our opinion, condemning this company to closure. The Prime Minister should get involved in these matters, the Minister of State Assets should get involved. […] We will take action during the Sejm debates – he added.
