What is happening behind the scenes of the conversations about creating a possible coalition between the Platform, the Third Way and the Left? A lot. There is also no shortage of emotions.
This is even evident from official statements from the camp of the Third Polish Republic.
Enough arguing. The conversations are going very well and differences of opinion are part of democracy. Our agreement will be public, so that everyone knows the program of the new democratic government. Forward!
– He wrote Szymon Hołownia. “Enough arguing”? So there are arguments?
PiS wants sets the emotions on edge within the democratic opposition. He encourages the Razem Party to block the formation of a government. It fuels the argument between TD and the left. He absorbs the Third Way to create conflict during the negotiations with the Civil Coalition. I wonder if it will be effective
– says Dominika Wielowieyska. “Raise the emotions”? So there are emotions? With the Democrats?
A few phone calls, a few meetings and an interesting picture of what is happening emerges.
These are the most important findings.
According to our informants media statements from PSL politicians those who reject the possibility of conversations with Law and Justice at this stage disastrous consequences for this party’s position in the negotiations with PO. If they can only govern with Tusk, if they accept him as Prime Minister so quickly, if they do so through the media and unconditionally, then the leader of the Platform has them completely in his grasp. And he uses his power.
Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz he proposed that Szymon Hołownia should become Marshal of the Sejm in a possible new arrangement, which – as he emphasized – would rid the government of this remarkable figure and give him a quite labor-intensive job. But Tusk answered that “not really” – in the event of a political crisis, the power of the Chairman of the Sejm is great, therefore this position should be taken by a man from the PO party apparatus: Borys Budka.
Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz he wanted to be responsible for all ministries of economic affairs, except the ministry of finance. He was particularly interested in development. But Tusk refused. Currently, apart from the rather obvious position of Deputy Prime Minister, the PSL leader has an offer to take over the Ministry of Family Affairs and Social Policy. This is an area where sharp cuts to social programs are planned! Moreover, the Platform plans to make Kosiniak-Kamysz responsible – as deputy prime minister or even as minister – for the Ministry of Health. This means that a certain political catastrophe is imposed on him.
Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz – as our interlocutors emphasize – he behaves shockingly passively during these negotiations and is misled by Tusk.
We see this weakness, the inability to have a difficult conversation with Tusk, and it would be difficult not to have consequences. If things continue like this, Kosiniak-Kamysz will focus on agriculture and healthcare and kiss Tusk’s hand
– mocks one of our sources, an experienced politician.
It is also particularly attention-grabbing weak position of the left, who may not enter government at all or be used only to gain an initial majority and then expelled. This means that they simply wait humbly in the designated area. Our interlocutors report that they wanted culture, but that this was refused. So they asked for education, but probably nothing. Perhaps they will get housing, but with the cynical assumption that they will abuse it, because there will obviously be no money for any “cheap apartments to rent”. Developers have taken over and it will go in the opposite direction.
WE HAVE DESCRIBED IT HERE: WE DISCLOSURE. PO and Third Way plan a parliamentary majority and a government without the left. ‘They want to mislead them. The hunt for MPs has begun.
