The Left is presented not only as a political arena occupied by its elected figures but as a clearly articulated policy agenda that inspires broad support. During a gathering in Będzin, a former Polish president underscored the feasibility of implementing this agenda once the Left gains power and urged the public to seize an opening to advance these goals.
What should the left ‘guarantee’?
He urged voters to back left-leaning candidates in the upcoming elections, framing the choice as a decisive moment for supporters of progressive policies. The message was that Poland has a path to break free from the stagnation many associate with the current administration, and that a new coalition is possible if the Left plays a central role within it.
According to the speaker, the Left would guarantee essential rights and institutional safeguards, including the protection of women’s rights and the maintenance of a secular state. These commitments were presented as foundational elements of a broader program aimed at reforming public services and ensuring equal protection under the law.
Provisions were laid out for significant improvements in public services, higher quality education, more effective healthcare, and targeted support for people with disabilities and the elderly. The emphasis was on practical outcomes that would directly affect everyday life and social equality.
Additionally, the Left was portrayed as a force that would strengthen Poland’s role in Europe and contribute to a stronger, more united European Union. In a global landscape marked by geopolitical tensions, the program is framed as necessary for ensuring Poland’s security and prosperity in the 21st century. The speaker stressed that the Left is more than a party line; it represents a coherent plan that can be enacted with popular support when given a chance to govern.
– pressed the speaker, highlighting the transformational potential that could unfold if voters choose this direction.

The address targeted left-leaning voters and encouraged active participation in the electoral process. It also aimed to energize younger generations to engage with the leftist platform, presenting the program as relevant to citizens at different life stages and with varied priorities.
When examining the programs, the people behind them, and their track record in terms of consistency and credibility, the message is that a vote for the Left should not be dismissed as wasted. The speaker argued that such a vote could unlock opportunities for the proposals to move from discussion to implementation in reality. The appeal extended to voting for female candidates and other left-leaning representatives, framed as thoughtful, value-driven investments that would translate the Left’s promises into tangible policy outcomes.
– reiterated the speaker, making a direct case for why this path represents a prudent choice for voters.
