— STANOWSKI: After 13 hours, the Polish Press Agency deleted that fake. The biggest media outlets and the most important politicians fell victim to disinformation. A widespread humiliation.

— 79% CRITICAL STATEMENTS ABOUT TRZASKOWSKI ONLINE, 4% POSITIVE – RES FUTURA ANALYSIS: Critical comments towards Trzaskowski in the context of the prohibition: 79% – focus on his absence, the withdrawal of the project by the plenipotentiary, capitulation to party colleagues, lack of public statement, and silence regarding the crisis.
Comments supporting Trzaskowski: 4% – include a negligible number of comments, pointing to an attempt at compromise, avoiding escalation, or pragmatism in the face of a lack of majority.

— WARSAW'S WORST POLITICAL CRISIS IN YEARS. AT CIVIC PLATFORM'S BEHEST – MICHAŁ WOJTCZUK IN GW: “Warsaw's Civic Platform managed in a few hours to disappoint public expectations, insult the city's police commander, humiliate its own mayor, and lead to the resignation of a deputy mayor. These are the only results of torpedoing the night-time prohibition.”
— THEY HUMILIATED THE POLICE COMMANDER – WOJTCZUK FURTHER IN GW: “However, for reasons known only to them, activists of Warsaw's Civic Platform sabotaged this solution. They humiliated the police commander, ignoring his voice in the security committee. The leader of the KO club, Jarosław Szostakowski, quipped that the police 'are not there to make things easier for themselves'.”
— PLATFORM DID ALMOST EVERYTHING WRONG – WOJTCZUK YET AGAIN IN GW: “Regarding the night-time alcohol ban, Warsaw's Civic Platform did almost everything wrong that could be done. They emerged from this trivial matter battered, with significant image losses. Completely unnecessarily.”
— SIMULTANEOUSLY RUINING THE MAYOR'S IMAGE, INSULTING THE POLICE, AND COMPROMISING THEMSELVES IN THE SESSION – WOJCZUK'S CONCLUSION IN GW: “The senseless resistance regarding the night-time prohibition probably had only one goal: it was a loyalty test for Warsaw's Civic Platform councilors. A successful one. They dutifully did what their party superiors expected of them. In the process, they ruined the mayor's image, insulted the police, and compromised themselves in the session.”

— KO IS HEADING TOWARDS DEFEAT IN PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS – TOMASZ TERLIKOWSKI WRITES FOR WIRTUALNA POLSKA: “Feigning decisions, pretending to act, and piloting where decisive stances are needed – this is how the Civic Coalition operates in Warsaw. This is not only why Rafał Trzaskowski lost the presidential election, but also one of the strongest reasons why the KO is heading towards defeat in the parliamentary elections.”
— A HUMILIATING SPECTACLE FOR BOTH RAFAŁ TRZASKOWSKI AND THE CIVIC COALITION, AND AN INSULT TO THE INTELLIGENCE OF WARSAW RESIDENTS – TERLIKOWSKI FURTHER: “A humiliating spectacle was staged for both Rafał Trzaskowski and the Civic Coalition, as well as an insult to the intelligence of Warsaw residents. The image losses that the Civic Coalition and Rafał Trzaskowski himself will suffer in this matter will also be significant, and Warsaw residents will pay for the lack of decisiveness and superficial actions.”
— ONE CAN ALSO ASK IF THE FATE OF RAFAŁ TRZASKOWSKI'S PROJECT (AND EARLIER THE HUNDRED CONCRETES OF THE CIVIC COALITION) WILL NOT ALSO BE SHARED BY THE CURRENT GOVERNMENT'S ANNOUNCED PRIORITIES – TERLIKOWSKI YET AGAIN IN WP: “If this is the case in Warsaw, then one can ask: will it not be the same and continue to be the same at the national level? One can also ask if the fate of Rafał Trzaskowski's project (and earlier the hundred concretes of the Civic Coalition) will not also be shared by the current government's announced priorities. If even the deputy leader of the KO cannot force the party's councilors to support his idea and must withdraw from it, then why assume that the prime minister will force deputies – and from various parties – to vote together?”

— YOU ARE BEHAVING LIKE ENEMIES OF YOUR OWN CITY – JAKUB ŻULCZYK: “The stance of Warsaw's Civic Platform councilors is simply scandalous. You are behaving like enemies of your own city. You know perfectly well how night-time restrictions on alcohol sales affect the number of accidents, crimes, and queues at the emergency room. Despite this, you stubbornly cling to a falsely understood 'freedom', fearing for your own hides and seats. You do not explain to people that the proposed restriction does not apply to restaurants and clubs, only to gas stations and shops. You know what residents want, you have seen the public consultations. Warsaw will thank you for this. Shame.”

— KO MAY PAY A HEAVY PRICE – CEZARY KOWANDA ON TYGODNIK POLITYKA'S PORTAL: “The next local elections in the capital may turn out to be much more difficult for the Civic Coalition, which is accustomed to winning in Warsaw without any effort.”

— IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE 'GOVERNMENT CUTBACKS', INSTEAD THERE'S ANOTHER CONFLICT. POLSKA 2050 HAS CLAIMS AGAINST TUSK – MICHAŁ WRÓBLEWSKI IN WP: “Polska 2050 has decided to withdraw its recommendation for Deputy Finance Minister Jarosław Neneman – WP has learned. Instead, Szymon Hołownia's party wants deputy ministerial positions – in the ministries of Funds and Regional Development, and Sport – to be held by members of parliament. MP Bartosz Romowicz would become Deputy Minister of Funds and Regional Development, and MP Żaneta Cwalina-Śliwowska – Deputy Minister of Sport. – There was supposed to be a 20 percent reduction in ministerial positions. And what? Nothing. Some were dismissed, some resigned on their own, but there is no plan or coherent vision in this. The government structure still works poorly – claim sources from Hołownia's party.”

— PROSECUTOR'S OFFICE LAUNCHES INVESTIGATION INTO ONLINE CAMPAIGN SUPPORTING RAFAŁ TRZASKOWSKI – NASK REPORTS. IT CONCERNS THE MATTER OF ALLEGED PRO-TURNout ADS THAT APPEARED ON FACEBOOK – ANNA WITTENBERG IN WNP: “Three months after the presidential elections, the National Research Institute NASK maintains that foreign interference in the democratic process may have occurred during the campaign. This concerns advertisements on social media that supported Rafał Trzaskowski, discrediting his main rivals. The prosecutor's office is investigating the matter.”
