-- GOSIEWSKA CALLS ON MATECKI TO WITHDRAW CANDIDACY, CANNOT IMAGINE COOPERATION WITH SOMEONE WHO USES SUCH LANGUAGE, DWORCZYK: PM MORAWIECKI WILL NOT CAMPAIGN FOR HIS FATHER'S FUNERAL - 300LIVE: https://300polityka.pl/live/2019/10/01/ -- FOSTER NATIONAL ACCORD - One of his last words was to always think of Poland and to foster national accord. This had been his idea for a long time, which he tried to promote - PM MORAWIECKI IN CONVERSATION WITH FAKT: https://www.fakt.pl/wydarzenia/polityka/kornel-morawiecki-nie-zyje-premier-ujawnia-ostatnie-slowa-ojca/exrsr77 -- HE WAS AN HONEST MAN WHO DEDICATED HIS LIFE TO THE FIGHT FOR OUR FREEDOM, HE ALWAYS HELPED OTHERS - MACIEJ GAWLIKOWSKI IN NOWA KONFEDERACJA: 'Kornel, who was not a good politician, a visionary, an analyst. But he was an honest man who dedicated his life to the fight for our freedom. One of those to whom we owe this freedom. And above all, he was a man who always helped others. Yes, he was someone to whom one could always turn for help and be sure that he wouldn't wriggle out, wouldn't mock, wouldn't remain indifferent. One could even say that in his kindness, he was naive, which many exploited. I remember how he said he was disappointed by someone's honesty, but he wouldn't stop helping that person because he knew they were a poor soul, heavily burdened by fate, and he wouldn't leave them, even if that person wasn't playing fair. Is that enough? For me, that's what matters most. Farewell, Kornel... https://nowakonfederacja.pl/byl-czlowiekiem-ktory-zawsze-pomagal-innym/ -- THE PRIMACY OF THE NATIONAL SPIRIT OVER THE STATE, WHICH HE CONSIDERED AN OPPRESSIVE ENTITY FROM HIS YOUTH - ZUZANNA DĄBROWSKA IN RZ: 'His late political comeback – as a Member of Parliament for the Kukiz'15 movement – was not accidental. In a sense, by declaring his great attachment to his homeland and patriotic values, he was an anarchist, and he was waiting for such an organization to be able to proclaim the primacy of the national spirit over the state, which – whatever it might be – he considered an oppressive creation from his youth. Because he was a born rebel. And the words of Norwid fit his path best: They rule without personal involvement, Often young men rule the city (!), And the threatening crowd listens to them solemnly: These are – rebels! ...' https://www.rp.pl/Wspomnienia/190939905-Kornel-Morawiecki-Prawdziwy-buntownik-z-wyboru.html -- JACEK SUTRYK ANNOUNCES A STREET NAMED AFTER KORNEL MORAWIECKI IN WROCŁAW: Wrocław mourns with the family of the late Kornel Morawiecki. Our City has lost an Honorary Citizen, a Legend of the Opposition Movement, a Founder of Fighting Solidarity. I would like Honorary Citizens of Wrocław to remain forever in our memory, therefore I will submit a proposal to the City Council to name one of the streets after Kornel Morawiecki. Glory to his memory. https://www.facebook.com/sutrykjacek/photos/a.2131184913769439/2544285065792753/?type=3&theater -- KORNEL MORAWIECKI TO BE BURIED AT POWĄZKI MILITARY CEMETERY - MICHAŁ DWORCZYK ON WP: Kornel Morawiecki's funeral will be a state funeral. The decision has been made that the place of rest will be Warsaw. The date and time – a decision on this matter will be made in the near future. The Chancellery of the Prime Minister is preparing this ceremony. But it will be at Powązki Military Cemetery. https://wiadomosci.wp.pl/pogrzeb-kornela-morawieckiego-michal-dworczyk-zdradza-szczegoly-6430368524675201v -- BETWEEN MORAWIECKI AND STUHR - MICHAŁ KARNOWSKI: 'And now let's compare the stance of this figure – so celebrated by his own political camp – with the latest dialogue between Tomasz Lis and Jerzy Stuhr, figures also highly valued by supporters of the opposition. For them, those who vote for PiS are descendants of serfs who are re-enacting centuries of oppression'. -- KOD ACTIVISTS WERE FOR HIM FIRST AND FOREMOST POLES - KARNOWSKI AGAIN: 'To this, let's add a scene recorded by a reporter from wPolsce.pl television, from the period of the struggle for justice reform. A group of supporters of the Committee for the Defence of Democracy then attacked the senior marshal, blocking his path and chanting loudly: 'you'll go to jail', 'bandit', 'scoundrel'. Asked if he was upset, Morawiecki replied calmly, with great confidence: 'I am concerned that such situations occur between us Poles; when I want to leave the Sejm, I cannot leave normally.' The KOD activists – who announced he would go to prison – were for him, first and foremost, Poles.' https://wpolityce.pl/m/polityka/466133-miedzy-morawieckim-a-stuhrem-czyli-co-polacy-wybiora-13-x -- THE ROLE MODELS FOR THE NEW BUSINESS ELITE ARE TO BE THUGS CALLING BANAS - MICHAŁ SZUŁDRZYŃSKI IN RZ: 'Kaczyński wants to create new business elites. Should the role models be thugs adorned with gold calling the head of NIK for protection? (...) PiS, however, declares that new business elites must be built. We see today how many State Treasury companies have become foundries for these new elites. We also know what businesses close to PiS look like. Or perhaps the role models for the new financial elites are 'entrepreneurs' adorned with gold calling the head of NIK for help, in whose tenement building they run hourly rooms?' -- THE POLISH VERSION OF THE WELFARE STATE CANNOT BE BUILT ON ENVY - SZUŁDRZYŃSKI CONTINUES: 'I have no illusions that stories about bad elites resonate with those who have stumbled. If someone hasn't succeeded, they don't want to hear that they are a failure. They prefer to think that others succeeded because they had some secret deals. Yes, the state should help those who have not succeeded. But not convince them that they should be the new elite. The Polish version of the welfare state, which PiS is now promising, cannot be built on envy.' https://www.rp.pl/Komentarze-wyborcze/191009999-Szuldrzynski-PiS-chce-stworzyc-wlasna-oligarchie.html -- TOMASZ LIS DISAPPOINTED BY THE CAMPAIGN: 'We are talking about arguably the most important elections in 30 years, and I don't have the impression that a heroic battle is being fought here. What surprises me most is on the opposition's side. It's not about serving people hysterics from morning to night, but there's no campaign without emotions.' https://wiadomosci.onet.pl/tylko-w-onecie/wybory-parlamentarne-2019-tomasz-lis-jestem-ta-kampania-zawiedziony/2xzhbjg -- JAKUB MAJMUREK ON WISHING FOR A RIGHT-WING LIKE CHIRAC'S IN POLAND: 'Chirac is neither the hero of my fairytale nor probably of most readers of 'Krytyka'. Apart from 2002, we probably wouldn't have voted for him. But I would gladly see a right-wing in Poland similar to the one represented by the late president: appreciating the importance of ecology, not blindly looking up to the States, understanding that access to abortion is a human right, not genocide, loyal to the Republic, not the episcopate.' https://krytykapolityczna.pl/swiat/zmarl-prezydent-francji-jacques-chirac/ -- 10 YEARS AGO the gambling affair was revealed. -- 5 YEARS AGO Prime Minister Ewa Kopacz delivered her exposé, and the Sejm granted her government a vote of confidence. -- BIRTHDAYS: Karol Lutkowski, Jerzy Meysztowicz, Sławomir Mazurek, Krystyna Danilecka-Wojewódzka, Karolina Wigura.
