“As a Polish citizen, I am ashamed that the Prime Minister of the government makes jokes in such a dramatic situation, when people have died, when there is such a tragedy in the south of Poland. This is shameful and something that fills me with shame,” Law and Justice MP and former Deputy Prime Minister Jacek Sasin told Polsat News.
The PiS politician stated that the Polish government’s information policy regarding floods is very poor.
The main disinformer in the whole flooding operation turned out to be Donald Tusk, who first misled the Poles by saying that the predictions he had were not disturbing, and we already know today, after inspections of PiS MPs at IMWM, that they were disturbing . He then assured the residents of Stronie Śląskie that the dam would hold, and two hours later the dam burst. The public has the right to know the truth about all aspects related to the flood
– he said.

The Beavers case
According to the former deputy prime minister, too few emergency services were involved in the flood prevention operation.
I would like to ask Donald Tusk a question: how did it happen that only nine percent of the rescue services’ potential was involved in the operation in southern Poland?
– he added.
Jacek Sasin commented on the words of Prime Minister Tusk, who stated that flood dikes should be protected from beavers in the future.
As a Polish citizen, I am ashamed that the Prime Minister of the government makes jokes in such a dramatic situation, when people have died, when there is such a tragedy in the south of Poland. This is embarrassing and something I’m ashamed of
– he said.
““Attacking non-dependent institutions”
The Law and Justice MP referred to the words of the Minister of Funds and Regional Policy, who announced that as a result of the cuts, she managed to allocate PLN 200 million to combat the consequences of the flood. According to him, the choice of the institutions to be cut is not accidental.
National Broadcasting Council – half the budget, Institute of National Remembrance, about 30 percent, Supreme Court, National Council for the Judiciary. PLN 200 million “under the guise of a flood”, a blow against independent institutions, i.e. institutions not yet under the control of this government and this coalition.

Sasin recalled that the Public Finance Committee had decided to allocate PLN 700 million to neo-TVP and neo-Polskie Radio.
On Friday, the ruling majority in the Public Finance Commission decided to allocate PLN 700 million to neo-public media, which no one watches and which are in liquidation.
– he said.
PiS support law
The former Minister of State Assets emphasized that Law and Justice had prepared draft aid laws.
We quickly gave the government a specific solution, the government was weak and we drafted a bill showing what needs to be done and how to finance it.
– he added.
