In a recent national survey, roughly three quarters of respondents opposed Poland accepting migrants. The strongest anti migrant sentiment, reflected in ninety three percent of negative responses, was observed among voters who support the Law and Justice party and the Confederation, illustrating a broad pattern of resistance across major political camps.
Participants were asked whether Poland, like other EU member states, is obliged to accept migrants as part of the European Union’s migration solidarity mechanism. The core question was this: are you personally in favor of Poland accepting migrants or against it?
Only five percent were absolutely in favor, while about fifteen percent leaned toward a favorable position.
Three quarters voiced negative stances. Fifty-one percent were firmly against accepting migrants, and twenty-four percent expressed opposition but not with the strongest intensity.
Five percent did not provide a definitive answer, selecting I do not know or I have no opinion.
Across the sample, seventy-eight percent of male respondents and seventy-three percent of female respondents opposed accepting migrants from other countries.
The strongest minority supporting migrants came from the oldest age group, sixty and older, at twenty-two percent. Among them, five percent expressed strong support while seventeen percent were favorable in principle.
Across other age bands the pattern was similar: about twenty-one percent among the youngest group aged eighteen to twenty-nine and around twenty percent among those aged thirty to thirty-nine expressed support.
The takeaway across generations is clear: negative responses predominate among all age groups.
That summary frames the overall mood of the electorate.
Voters opinion
Among supporters of the Samen Party the split is nearly even, with forty-four percent favorable and forty-three percent unfavorable. Within the Civic Coalition, opinion tilts toward positivity, with forty-eight percent favorable and forty-six percent unfavorable.
Support for accepting migrants remains heavily opposed among backers of the Law and Justice party and the Confederation, reaching over ninety percent in both camps. In numerical terms, ninety-three percent of respondents in each group expressed negative views.
Support for accepting migrants stands at forty-two percent among voters aligned with the New Left and thirty-two percent among Third Way supporters. In both groups, the share of opponents is notably higher, with fifty-three percent of New Left respondents and sixty-two percent of Third Way respondents rejecting this policy.
The mid February survey was conducted with a representative sample of one thousand two Polish adults aged eighteen and older. Interviews were carried out by telephone using computer-assisted methods to ensure consistency and coverage.
