There are such conversations, leaders talk about such scenarios – said left MP Krzysztof Śmiszek in Polsat when asked about the joint start of the Left, KO and Trzecia Droga in the European and local government elections. This is a very interesting project, he emphasized.
This is a very interesting project. The October 15 elections showed that Poles want a different policy and a different majority, and that they are happy with what the Left, the Civic Coalition and the Third Way are proposing. I would also support such conversations within the Democratic majority to continue what we accomplished in the October 15 elections.
– Krzysztof Śmiszek said on Polsat News on Sunday, when asked about a possible joint start of these groups in the local government and European Parliament elections.
As he noted, in parliamentary elections there is a “different method of counting votes, of more than 5 percent.” “This is a guarantee for entry, but in the case of provincial councils you need about 12-14 percent of the votes.”
There are conversations like that. Leaders talk about such scenarios. These local and European elections will not take place in 2-3 years, but in 5-7-8 months
– said the left-wing MP.
Śmiszek also emphasized that the government formation process is “basically over.”
We have the final polish of this system. We (left) will have a ministry of digitalization, we are constantly fighting for a ministry of national education. Social policy traditionally falls within the sphere of influence of social democrats, i.e. the left, and other ministries are also discussed. However, Prime Minister Tusk will talk about this, it is not appropriate for me to talk about this. However, let us not disguise the fact that every formation that has joined the government has ambitions, its own people and its own ideas
– said the left-wing MP.
Election for the Presidium of the Senate
He also referred to the elections for the Senate Presidium, in which Law and Justice candidate Marek Pęk was not elected deputy marshal.
I believe in the correctness of the decision of the senators who said during the first vote that there was no authorization for Mr Pęk
– he said.
It’s not that I’m saying today that it will never happen. I hear voices from many sides of the political scene, including the Democratic side, that perhaps we should give the Senator a second chance.
– added Śmiszek.
He added that “we will have this debate again” in the Senate, but emphasized that the situation is completely different in the case of the Sejm presidency elections, where PiS’s candidate for the position of deputy chairman, Elżbieta Witek, also lost in the vote. .
There will certainly be no permission in the Sejm for Madam Marshal Witek. I believe that someone who cared more about ensuring that the status of the Law and Justice party was implemented in the Sejm, rather than the rules of the Sejm and not the Constitution, should simply face the consequences.
– he said.
However, he added that Law and Justice, as the largest club in the Sejm, should have its own vice-chairman.
They have 194 MPs, they have plenty to choose from. And the left will vote for it, but not for someone who was absolutely ostentatious in breaking the rules of the Sejm.
– said Krzysztof Śmiszek.
