Cezary Tomczyk, deputy head of PO, on TOK FM presented, among other things, in a bizarre way where KO wants to raise money for his expensive election promises.
The general doubt boils down to the fact that the cost of the KO program is very high and you do not indicate the sources of funding. These are huge tax cuts, including an increase in the tax-free allowance, but also additional social expenditure, for example PLN 1,500 in ‘grandmother’s allowance’. You also support the indexation of 800plus. The fundamental doubt here is that it will probably have to be financed with a loan, because you do not indicate the sources from which these promises come.
– emphasized the interviewer Dominika Wielowiejska.
I will quote a classic and I think it is very important: people listening to us today should remember this and quote to every PiS member they meet along the way: “Just don’t steal.” This is the first basic rule
– he blurted out Cezary Tomczykreferring to Prime Minister Beata Szydło’s words from years ago and apparently suggesting that billions of zlotys will be obtained by putting an end to unspecified PiS theft.
And this is not enough to finance these promises; it even amounts to more than a few tens of billions of zlotys
– noted the TOK FM journalist.
TVP alone is worth PLN 12 billion
– Tomczyk emphasized, apparently referring to KO’s plan to liquidate public television or very drastically reduce its financing.
Tomczyk said in the program that PiS reportedly had no program.
Tomczyk accuses PiS of… lacking a program
After this weekend we saw, and probably the whole of Poland, that PiS has no election manifesto, unless you count the program on TVP (…). PiS has not presented a real election manifesto and this is what it looks like
– he pointed out. As you can see, his words do not stop KO from strongly supporting one of the new PiS proposals – namely the indexation of PLN 500 plus to PLN 800.
In the broadcast, Tomczyk also tried to portray the supposedly bad, worse-than-before situation of pensioners in Poland.
If inflation in Poland was 20 percent and the indexation of pensions was several percent, this means that for the first time pensioners simply lost real money.
– he said.
It didn’t reach twenty percent
Wielowieyska intervened.
Rounded off to 18 percent, this is 20 percent. and this is more or less the current inflation in Poland
– Tomczyk emphasized.
Currently that is 10 percent.
– the journalist corrected his words. Tomczyk tried to defend himself by emphasizing that the increases in food prices in stores are higher than the current inflation rate.
As you can see, Cezary Tomczyk, a prominent KO politician, did not present clearly and precisely where KO would get the money for his promises.
