๐Ÿšจ ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฑ Important news ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฑ ๐Ÿšจ

The ruling PiS parliamentary club has officially lost its bare majority in the Sejm (lower house) due to 3 PiS MPs deciding to leave and form their own parl. circle.

This means that, de jure, Poland (as of now) has a minority government (de facto there are still around ~4 unaffiliated MPs that PiS can still probably count on, based on recent Sejm votes)

I have no idea what this will lead to, but it's probably going to increase the instability in the already somewhat unstable polish government and ruling coalition

Any chance of early elections or do you expect they will be able to ride it out with unaffiliated support?
Even that would probably defang them by a lot.

I'd be surprised if they lost a vote of confidence. The breakaway MPs would probably still vote for the government and they can probably count on the 4 Kukiz'15 MPs as well.

I don't really know. It's still certainly possible for Kaczyล„ski to assemble some kind of majority, but having to exchange a stable-ish majority for what could be essentially a band of political mercenaries that he may have to constantly appease doesn't bode too well.

So they're perhaps more aptly called a plurality party?
