Almost eight years in opposition. A lot of money from the budget. Great business and media facilities. Grants from German foundations. And in the finale of the campaign, a month before the elections, they throw out a hundred slogans, slogans on the level of a high school student’s trousseau.
I don’t care if these are smart or dumb slogans. In a large country of the European Union, with a developing economy and enormous security challenges, this level of general gibberish is simply undignified. Poland at this level contempt – because it is contempt – they don’t deserve it. Because any party in Germany that showed such a thing would burn itself in shame and the media would scatter the ashes in an unknown place.
The opposition has wasted eight years and today it is throwing something on the table that is so frivolous it is simply embarrassing. Also for us, because the quality of the opposition is also the quality of the state.
We spend hundreds of billions on armaments, and they airily claim that they will present a military modernization program within a hundred days. Within 100 days! Are they joking or asking for directions?
Moreover, they will ‘see’ something, raise something, wish for better education and good healthcare. Or maybe not.
Writing this, I estimate, took no more than a day’s work. One day – in opposition for eight years!
At the convention they called it ‘concretes’.
But I look at the website dedicated to the “program” and there they are “particularities” they turn into… “postulates”.
View our requirements
- they announce at the beginning of almost each of the 21 chapters of this children’s list.
Postulates! According to the “Dictionary of Foreign Words and Phrases” Władysław Kopaliński this postulate “requirement, demand, wish, desideratum”and postulate means “to demand something, demand something, propose something.”
Certainly not ‘commit’.
Only in one “section” is the formula different from “see our requirements”. Yes, you guessed it, it’s the section ‘holding the PiS rule to account’, although the correct name should be ‘plan of revenge for the loss of power’.
Oh, there are no “requirements” or even report preparation here. There is certainty that they will implement it and there is a long list of people who will (in short) go to jail. For what? It is not known because the accusations are pure journalism. Who actually decided to plant them? PO hood court? Democrat Tusk together with the election staff? Or perhaps you informed Włodzimierz Karpiński, whose court (and you know how courts are, so the evidence must be strong) has just remained in custody? Was Sławomir Nowak, who so cleverly hid his money in the corners, asked for advice?
They are true in this one thing, they have one thing in mind: revenge and the liquidation of everything in Poland that is independent of Berlin, its own, Polish.
The rest, like these so-called ‘details’ that turned out to be ‘postulates’, is just a big lie.
The real PO plan was once announced by the economist Bogusław Grabowski: sell everything. And this remains true.
This is what I said about it in the program “Strefa Starcia” on TVP, a Polish television channel:
