— SOMEONE IN NATURE MATTERS HAS DECEIVED ME ON OCTOBER 15TH – ADAM WAJRAK IN GAZETA WYBORCZA: “I listen with embarrassment and anger to the government representatives' assurances that wolves will remain protected in Poland. One must have no imagination at all to believe these assurances. They only remind me that someone in matters of nature deceived me on October 15th.”

— DIDN'T THE COALITION OF OCTOBER 15TH PROMISE SOMETHING ELSE? – WAJRAK CONTINUES IN GW: “It’s hard not to look at all this with great concern. For Polish nature lovers, the fact that the Polish government contributed to this and that a change in the law will occur during Poland's presidency is particularly shocking. Didn’t the coalition of October 15th promise something else?”

— TUSK IS SIMPLY DOING FAVORS FOR HIS EPP FRIENDS – WAJRAK CONTINUES: “Of course, neither of the gentlemen could answer that Donald Tusk is simply doing favors for his EPP friends and forced the government into such a stance, so they are twisting and turning as much as they can to calm down the voters.”

— TO INCREASE HEALTHCARE SPENDING SO THAT THOSE WHO MAKE FORTUNES ON NFZ CONTRACTS GET EVEN RICHER!? – JUDYTA WATOŁA IN GW: “I can no longer listen to talk about how we need to increase healthcare spending. Increase it so that those who make fortunes on National Health Fund (NFZ) contracts get even richer!? The opinion that spending needs to be increased is naively repeated by many politicians. They are echoed by industry experts, and journalists transcribe it.”

— LOBBYISTS WORKING ON BEHALF OF BIG PLAYERS, INCLUDING BIG PHARMA COMPANIES, ENSURE THIS HAPPENS – WATOŁA CONTINUES IN GW: “Lobbyists working on behalf of big players ensure that this happens. Among them are Big Pharma companies. They are particularly interested in their revenues from drug programs continuing to grow. In 2018, the NFZ spent less than PLN 4 billion on them, and last year it was almost PLN 13 billion. These billions are, for the most part, their pure profit.”

— I ASKED THE NFZ IF ANYONE WAS ANALYZING HOW SUCH A HUGE INCREASE IN EXPENDITURE TRANSLATED INTO TREATMENT EFFECTIVENESS. IT TURNED OUT NO ONE WAS – WATOŁA WRITES: “Of course, thanks to new drug programs, children with muscle atrophy now have access to drugs that significantly slow the progression of the disease. There are also other examples of expensive but effective therapies. However, programs have often been created and are created for drugs whose advantage over previously used therapies is at least questionable, for example, in oncology. I asked the NFZ if anyone was analyzing how such a huge increase in expenditure translated into treatment effectiveness. It turned out no one was.”

— SIMPLY ADDING MONEY FROM THE BUDGET TO THE NFZ'S COFFERS OR INCREASING HEALTH CONTRIBUTIONS WILL ACHIEVE NOTHING AT THIS MOMENT EXCEPT POSTPONING THE CATASTROPHE – JUDYTA WATOŁA'S CONCLUSION IN GW: “Of course, other countries spend more on healthcare than Poland. Of course, the reduction of health contributions for entrepreneurs, pushed by the Third Way, is an absurdity in the current NFZ situation, especially since many of them pay very little anyway. It is also absurd that wealthy 'landowner farmers' do not pay it at all. However, simply adding money from the budget to the NFZ's coffers or increasing health contributions will achieve nothing at this moment except postponing the catastrophe. The system is too sick to be healed in this way.”

— IT'S NOT TRUMP AT ALL. THE EU'S MAIN ECONOMIC OPPONENT IS CHINA – SANDER TORDOIR, CHIEF ECONOMIST AT THE CENTRE FOR EUROPEAN REFORM THINK TANK IN AN INTERVIEW WITH JAKUB SZYMCZAK ON OKO.PRESS: “It’s not Trump’s tariffs at all; our problem is China. China currently has huge trade surpluses. Chinese car exports have increased sixfold in the last four years. They are now the largest car exporter in the world. They import virtually nothing from us, so it’s a one-sided relationship. And the potential for export growth is enormous; Chinese automotive factories can produce over 50 million cars a year – that's 65% of the global car market.”

— REGARDING TECHNOLOGY, I CAN UNDERSTAND THE CALL FOR SOME KIND OF DEREGULATION – CONTINUES THE CHIEF ECONOMIST OF THE CENTRE FOR EUROPEAN REFORM THINK TANK IN AN INTERVIEW WITH SZYMCZAK ON OKO.PRESS: “Europe is lagging behind when it comes to AI, software, and cloud computing. This is a problem, and I think we may have introduced strong regulations too quickly before allowing the European technology sector to grow. So, regarding technology, I can understand the call for some kind of deregulation.”

— THE PRESIDENT WRITES TO THE PRIME MINISTER AND ASKS ABOUT MIGRATION POLICY – PAPROCKA: I DO NOT RULE OUT CONVENING THE NATIONAL SECURITY COUNCIL OR A CABINET COUNCIL – 300LIVE: https://300polityka.pl/live/2025/03/28/

— THE RIGHT TO ASYLUM SUSPENDED. LIBERAL DEMOCRACY DIES IN SILENCE – MICHAŁ SZUŁDRZYŃSKI IN RZ: “PiS has buried liberal democracy, and PO has no intention of saving it. The right to asylum has been suspended in Poland, and political theater hides a political consensus: the border must be impassable, and human rights are an unnecessary luxury today.”

— THIS IS NOT THE LANGUAGE OF LIBERAL DEMOCRACY – SZUŁDRZYŃSKI CONTINUES IN RZ: “Participants in Poland’s tribal and polarizing war do not go this deep; they believe there is some fundamental dispute between the ruling KO and PSL on one side, and the opposition PiS and Konfederacja on the other. Meanwhile, on many matters concerning security, and especially in their approach to migrants, everyone speaks the same language. And it is not the language of liberal democracy.”

— DUDA AND TUSK SOLIDARILY TOSSED ASIDE THE CONSTITUTION – JACEK GĄDEK IN NEWSWEEK: “Andrzej Duda and Donald Tusk have therefore, in solidarity, disregarded the constitution. In reality, they have endorsed Kornel Morawiecki's loud and blasphemous words that 'law is not sacred, and above the law is the good of the nation.'”
