— THE LAW AND JUSTICE PARTY (PIS) AND KAROL NAWROCKI'S CAMPAIGN ARE ESCALATING THE CULTURE WAR, THREATENING WITH MIGRATION AND ADOPTION BY SAME-SEX COUPLES. THIS IS INDIRECT PROOF OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF RAFAŁ TRZASKOWSKI'S AND DONALD TUSK'S STRATEGY SO FAR – MICHAŁ SZUŁDRZYŃSKI IN RZ.
— IF PIS ATTACKS THE CREDIBILITY OF TUSK AND TRZASKOWSKI ON MIGRATION, IT'S A SIGN THEY SEE THIS TACTIC SUCCEEDING – SZUŁDRZYŃSKI CONTINUES: “Prime Minister Donald Tusk also strongly emphasized the theme of security, border reinforcement, and stopping migration, preparing a law suspending migrants' right to seek asylum at the eastern border. If PiS attacks the credibility of Tusk and Trzaskowski on migration, it's a sign that they see this tactic succeeding.”

— A WEAK HEAD OF STATE IS A POLISH TRADITION – JAROSŁAW KUISZ IN KULTURA LIBERALNA: “The presidential elections are approaching, but a real fight for power is not underway. We Poles do not like strong heads of state. On the contrary, we love weak and harmless heads, often tragically farcical. That is why the current candidates are not the most important political predators.”
— NONE OF BRONISŁAW KOMOROWSKI'S OR ANDRZEJ DUDA'S EFFORTS, TO NOT REACH BACK FURTHER IN MEMORY, HAVE DISPELLED HIS CERTAIN RIDICULOUSNESS – KUISZ CONTINUES: “Painstakingly, each time anew, attempts were made to build the dignity of the head of state. Ultimately, a small house of cards was assembled, scattered across the floors of the Namiestnikowski Palace by drafts of disputes and the disregard shown by other politicians. The more they insisted on ceremonies, the more paper-like the office seemed. Human passions were stifled within the narrow constitutional framework. The most important competence of the head of state turns out to be oversensitivity about oneself.”

— THE MILLENNIUM OF CHROBRY'S CORONATION HAS SURPRISED THE CIVIC COALITION. THE GOVERNMENT IS RUSHING TO PREPARE GRAND CELEBRATIONS FOR THE MILLENNIUM OF THE CORONATION – ESTERA FLIEGER, JACEK NIZINKIEWICZ IN RZ: “The Prime Minister's Chancellery, on Donald Tusk's order, is scrambling to prepare celebrations in Warsaw for the millennium of Bolesław Chrobry's coronation – as determined by 'Rzeczpospolita'. According to unofficial information, serious preparations began less than a month before the anniversary.”

— THE PATHOLOGY OF PUSHING EMPLOYEES OUT OF FULL-TIME POSITIONS INTO B2B CONTRACTS WILL GAIN MOMENTUM – WE MUST ASSUME – MAŁGORZATA SOLECKA IN TYGODNIK POWSZECHNY: “The reduction in health contributions for entrepreneurs primarily concerns, according to experts, a large number of self-employed individuals who are not entrepreneurs but (not always voluntarily) benefit from tax optimization. The pathology of pushing employees out of full-time positions into B2B contracts will gain momentum – we must assume. It may turn out that overnight, instead of 2.5 million, we will have 4 million 'entrepreneurs', the costs of reducing health contributions will significantly increase, and revenues from PIT and ZUS contributions will fall. And suddenly (though not entirely unexpectedly) it will turn out that what was intended to drive Polish entrepreneurship and the economy will begin to stifle it.”
