Trzaskowski on "Mentzen's New Five": The List Includes Abolishing 800+, Paid University Studies, and Treatment by a Healer

– Yesterday, I heard about Mentzen's new five, five new proposals. The first proposal is that university studies should be paid for, that's what Mentzen says. 300,000 students are currently studying in Poland for free; this is a tremendous achievement for our country and our democracy. Is this a proposal for young people to pay for their studies? – said Rafał Trzaskowski at a press conference.

– The second point I heard about is the liquidation of 800+. […] Mentzen says: let's abolish the 13th and 14th pensions; this is the third point of his program. Is this common sense, seriously? – he continued.

– Two further proposals, which are perhaps the most outrageous for all of us, namely paid healthcare, this is something truly unprecedented […]. The fifth thing is that unqualified doctors are supposed to treat us, meaning that if anyone has a problem, they should go to a healer? This is truly unprecedented; we live in the 21st century – he went on to say.
