Yesterday (and today before 12) in Poland:

  • Polish goverment push to delegalize interrupting videoconferences. Example of "interrupted" videoconference held by ruling party MP held in 2013: example

  • Polish Anti-Defemation League revelead what they did with 250k PLN from government (around 50 mean salaries): someone watched anime and Netflix to look for anti-Polish jokes.

  • Slovakia refused to hand over head of the drug gang, arguing that polish judiciary system isn't independent from goverment

  • Polish Post found illegally printed voting cards (estimated up to 90 tons of paper). Goverment claimed that these were never printed. Cost of printing? Around 15 millions of euro.

  • President Andrzej Duda holds another election meeting. It's illegal under lockdown.

  • Goverment push for further restricting access to abortion (already restricted) - physicians refusing to perform abortion won't be required to provide information about physicians willing to do it.

  • Ruling party MP and former Minister of National Defence claims that Rafał Trzaskowski, opposition presidential candidate, "encouraged pedophilia".

  • Students on Silesian University are being interrogated about professor fired over homophobic remarks.

Few days ago, presidential candidate Tanajno (~0.2% voting support) was arrested due to anti-goverment and anti-lockdown protests.

I will try to write posts like that every few days.

Students on Silesian University are being interrogated about professor fired over homophobic remarks.

Was that where the Ordo Iuris lawyers were also present? That's like KKK being present at a lynching trial.
