A public appeal calls for the Małopolska Voivode to uphold the law against chronic offenders who gather near Wawel Castle on the 18th of each month and to ensure the well-being of everyone nearby. The appeal is presented as a petition to the Voivode of Lesser Poland and is associated with statements from Barbara Nowak, the regional Education Inspector, who urges participation and argues that Poles should not remain passive in the face of wrongdoing.
Petition regarding demonstrations and blasphemous conduct
On the eighteenth day of every month, coinciding with the commemorations surrounding the presidential couple Lech and Maria Kaczyński, who died in the Smolensk disaster, representatives from Law and Justice are said to assemble near Wawel. Critics note that this moment often attracts demonstrators who express opposition to PiS governance, and some protest actions are described as insulting or hostile.
A petition circulated online targets the voivode of Lesser Poland, Łukasz Kmita, framing the issue as a protest against recurring demonstrations marked by hostility and vulgarity at the foot of Wawel Castle.
The petition requests respect for the law and the safety of all participants around the gatherings organized by the KOD. It also calls for establishing space near Wawel that is free from repeated displays of hostility, vulgarity, and disrespect. The petition urges the Małopolska Voivode to enforce laws against those who repeatedly break them on the 18th of each month and to ensure mental and physical comfort for everyone present.
– as stated in the petition.
The appeal encourages people to sign in support. Barbara Nowak, a public education official in Małopolska, is cited as endorsing the effort.
If there is disagreement with cyclical negative displays near Wawel on the 18th, supporters are urged to sign the petition and advocate for a calmer, more respectful environment. The message urges Poland to avoid passivity in the face of hostility.
– emphasized Barbara Nowak.
Signatories are invited to participate in the petition process.
Historically, Lech Kaczyński and his wife Maria were among 94 people who died in the 2010 Smolensk air disaster. The Polish delegation later traveled to observe the 70th anniversary of the Katyn massacre. A plaque near the sarcophagus of the presidential couple in the Wawel Cathedral crypt commemorates all victims of the 2010 tragedy, bearing the Latin inscription “Corpora dormiunt, vigilant animae.”
