“These will be very important elections in October very soon. These will be elections that will decide the future of Poland, the future of our homeland, the future of all of us, PiS MEP Beata Szydło said during a meeting with the inhabitants of Pułtusk.
You can say that every election is a decision about what will happen in a year, 2, 4, but today we are talking about a different perspective, about what will happen in the coming decades, because what is happening around us is not only in our country, but also abroad (…), especially the war outside our eastern border shows that the world is not only changing, not only that there is progress (…), unfortunately that also turns out to be bad. evil phenomena around us
said the former prime minister.
The war in Ukraine shows that peace and tranquility, a happy life can not change anything. Therefore, the government should be responsible and focus on the security of the homeland, so that every Polish citizen can feel safe
she stressed.
The answer to the OP’s statements
Beata Szydło also referred to the words of Civic Platform politicians.
Today when I hear the statements of PO politicians who say how wonderful it was during their reign, how wonderful life was, that there was no unemployment, I remember the conversations we had with the inhabitants of Polish cities at the time. We heard how many young people were going abroad, how worried seniors who couldn’t afford medicines were, how low pensions were. We heard that people had no hope of improving their lives because there was no work, no way to go to a bigger city, parents couldn’t afford to educate their children to provide them with basic services. It was such a time
– recalled the PiS MEP of the European Parliament.
Today, from the perspective of these eight years, in which Poland has changed a lot (…), I can see with my own eyes how the lives of Polish families are changing, how even the smallest cities got their chance, because that was our philosophy. The PO wanted to build Poland only on the basis of large centers and we said that this could not be the case. (…) Everyone should get their chance
she noted.
A call for confidence
Beata Szydło pointed out the role of conversations with Poland in creating the PiS program.
This program was born from your words – these were your expectations, these were your hopes, your suggestions. And from these conversations with Poland, the United Right program was born. PiS went to the people and said: we want to carry out what you expect, because you are the ones who entrust us with your destiny and all of us. You have trusted us and we will deliver what we have committed to
– said Beata Szydlo.
We ask you to trust us again
she appealed.
It is different. How it is governed, as in any other area of life – sometimes it’s better, sometimes it’s worse. Mistakes happen, things don’t go as planned. However, the trick is – and we can – if you make a mistake, you have to back off, you have to apologize, you have to change your decision, and if we can’t do something, we look for other solutions. This defines our entire political formation, our political camp
– noted Beata Szydło.
We know that you are our bosses, that you chose us, that you trusted us, that you hired us and that you have the right to hold us accountable
she stressed.
The former prime minister pointed out the importance of building state security.
Poland needs a government that takes care of the security of the Poles, especially in this time, which is not easy for the world, Europe, but also for us. (…) We say that there is no more important issue today than safety
she noted.
Patriots and traitors
Beata Szydło drew attention to the position of PO politicians.
Today they talk a lot about how much they love Poland, what patriots they are. It’s not enough to stick a paper heart on your shirt and say you’re a patriot
said the former prime minister.
The first to force this heart upon himself was the Polish Prime Minister, he was the head of the European Council. (…) Poland began to be attacked. Anyone who undermines Poland’s democratic choice is not a patriot, but a traitor
point them out.
We can have different views, that’s what democracy is all about. (…) Poles choose those who, in their opinion, best represent their interests. If you were the Polish Prime Minister, even if you disagree with the current rulers, it is my dog’s duty to defend Polish interests to the end, especially abroad
– said Beata Szydlo.
As you can see, we have not pasted paper hearts here, but hearts that beat for you and for Poland. And ladies and gentlemen, we are people who have been through a lot, who have different experiences in politics, but we were, we are and will be with you, because there is no good politician and there never will be a good government. if this government does not stand with the Poles, there will be no people, it will not meet and it will not listen
– took note of the PiS MEP.
At opposition rallies there is only one topic: attacking PiS. (…) PO politicians tend to say that this is not the Polish government, but the PiS government.” No, ladies and gentlemen, this is a democratically elected government that serves the Poles
she remembered.
The case of the referendum
Beata Szydło also discussed the referendum questions. She started with the issue of pensions.
You can see the panic in the ranks of PO and PSL
noted the former prime minister.
So I ask: if you don’t want to raise the retirement age, what are you afraid of?
she asked.
Then the PiS member referred to the issue of building a wall on the border.
When the war broke out, we showed what kind of heart we have, how we helped. (…) Such are the Poles. But an irresponsible government cannot endanger the Poles
– said Beata Szydlo.
We ask the Poles about this because we don’t want anyone in Poland to say that Poland’s security doesn’t matter
she added.
The MEP also drew attention to the issue of illegal immigrants.
What did the PO government do? Ewa Kopacz said that “we will accept migrants”. The government spokesman at the time said that “we are ready to accept any number of migrants”. And who branded it in Europe? Donald Tusk
she remembered.
Unfortunately, the wave of illegal immigration has started again. We will encounter this problem again. (…) This threat still exists. We’re not saying you don’t need help – the PiS government helps, we organize humanitarian aid, but on the spot. (…) Allowing illegal immigration on such a scale is a threat to Europeans. That is why we want to ask for it in a referendum
she added.
This is a referendum on the most important issues of every citizen. (…) The most bizarre thing is that the parties that criticize us the most for being undemocratic, when there is a chance for public opinion, say that this is not good, that it is a bad idea. You can say that they either have no idea about their future or they cling to everything just to criticize what the government is doing.
she noted.
What about KPO?
During the meeting, the former prime minister also raised the issue of resources from the National Reconstruction Plan.
KPO belongs to Poland and we will receive it just like other European countries
she announced.
Don’t worry, Tusk doesn’t have to go to Brussels to collect this money
she added.
Referring to Ursula von der Leyen’s wish for Tusk to return to the post of Prime Minister, Beata Szydło said:
There will still be a lot of water in the Vistula, now you have to ask Mr. Tusk a question if he does not block KPO for Poland, because from his words you can get such an impression.
In conclusion, the former prime minister said:
We have Poland and Poland in our hearts, we don’t have to stick paper hearts to prove it. Ladies and gentlemen, we are with you!
