— HEATING PRICES IN POLAND ARE SKYROCKETING. ENERGY EXPERT: IT WILL GET EVEN MORE EXPENSIVE - MAŁGORZATA SKOWROŃSKA IN GW: “I looked at the bill and almost fell off my chair. Heating prices have gone up so much that soon it will be more profitable for me to pay rent for an apartment than to bear the costs of heating my own,” says Magdalena Szymczyk from Krakow. As “Wyborcza” reported, in Ruda Śląska, Węglokoks Energia ZCP announced a very significant increase in variable heating costs (by 120.18 percent) and fixed costs (by 41.16 percent). This means an 88.3 percent increase in heat charges. For an average household, this increase will translate to approximately PLN 600 in additional annual fees.
— IN OTHER CITIES, INCREASES FOR SO-CALLED SYSTEMIC HEAT ARE NO LESS THAN 20 PERCENT – SKOWROŃSKA CONTINUES IN GW:
“Zielona Góra – 50-65 percent.
Lublin – 30 percent.
Opole – 29 percent.
Warsaw – 20-24 percent.”.

— PRESIDENT NAWROCKI ACTUALLY KNEW MY GRANDFATHER. IPN TOOK CARE OF MY GRANDFATHER – ONET QUOTES KRZYSZTOF STANOWSKI'S CONVERSATION WITH MACIEJ MUSIAŁ: “Musiał revealed that his grandfather was known to Karol Nawrocki from the time when the current president served as the head of the Institute of National Remembrance. – President Nawrocki indeed knew my grandfather. IPN took care of my grandfather. They knew what he did and who he was – said the actor. Musiał recounted that he initiated the process of removing the monument as part of an action to liquidate communist symbols. Unfortunately, his grandfather died just before the planned demolition. – It was very symbolic. A week or two after my grandfather’s funeral, this monument disappeared. President Nawrocki arrived with a machine with a large ball. They demolished the obelisk first, and then the pedestal,” the actor recalled. He emphasized that he was particularly grateful to Nawrocki for this decision and action.”

— THERE IS NO CONSENT TO VIOLATE OUR AIRSPACE. POLISH BORDERS ARE SACRED AND WE HAVE FULL ALLIED SUPPORT. This is the clear message from President Karol Nawrocki, who guards Polish security – PAWEŁ SZEFERNAKER ON X.
— THEY WERE WRONG ON EVERY STRATEGIC ISSUE FOR POLAND, THEY WEAKENED THE STATE – SZEFERNAKER CONTINUES: “Some circles in the political scene are trying to use this situation to try and divert attention from how they weakened the state:
– they closed military units and dismantled the Polish army,
– they questioned the sense of major public investments like CPK (Central Communication Port) and the expansion of Polish ports,
– ambitious public projects: from the Vistula Spit to large-scale energy storage and technological investments in Polish fertilizers, they called them megalomania!
– they have stalled major nuclear energy and SMRs (Small Modular Reactors) for almost 2 years! Next year, the first spade was supposed to be turned for the construction of the first small reactor in Włocławek!
– for years they supported pro-Putin policy, while insulting the most important Western leaders; today they try to accuse of pro-Russian tendencies those who have been warning for decades about the resurgence of Russian imperialism.
They were wrong on every strategic issue for Poland, they remained in geopolitical slumber, slowing down Europe with left-wing ideological insertions and weakening industry.”

— SIKORSKI: IT IS HONEST TO TELL THE NATION THAT WE WILL NOT RECEIVE REPARATIONS, UNFORTUNATELY. MORALLY WE DESERVE THEM, BUT THE LEGAL SITUATION IS HOPELESS – 300LIVE: https://300polityka.pl/live/2025/09/15/
— CHINA AND RUSSIA WILL NOT FALL OUT. THIS IS BAD FOR POLAND. THE WORLD'S SECOND-LARGEST POWER IS SUPPORTING OUR ENEMY – PROF. MICHAŁ LUBIN, EXPERT ON RUSSIAN-CHINESE RELATIONS IN CONVERSATION WITH ŁUKASZ WÓJCIK ON THE TYGODNIK POLITYKA PORTAL: “The Russian-Chinese alliance is a nightmare from the perspective of the Republic of Poland's interests. The world's second-largest power, which wants to be first, is supporting our enemy. Will they fall out? It doesn't look like it. Using Mao Zedong's comparison, the contradictions between China and Russia are non-antagonistic. Take the Arctic issue: Russians have almost full control there and don't want to let the Chinese in, while the Chinese would like to. Space technology issue: Russians are reluctant to share space know-how, and the Chinese would really like to. Weapons? The Chinese already have a lot, but they would gladly accept the most modern technologies from Russian nuclear submarines, which is unlikely. In Central Asia, we effectively have a Russian-Chinese co-rule now, and this was traditionally a Russian sphere of influence. However, all these contradictions are secondary to the common goal: together against America.”
