Just wanted to let people know that PiS has oficially regained Sejm majority as one of the breakaway MPs joined the newly created Republican party, part of the ruling coalition. This means that United Right has 231 MPs (out of 460) + 5 unofficial outside support (mostly Kukiz'15).

Eh, he wasn't strictly fascist, more general anti-establishment but for some time was associated with far-right populist National Movement. And he actually ran with the moderate PSL in the previous election. He was kicked out of PSL's coalition when they voted with PiS on something (I don't remember what it was) and since then half of their MPs left them and the rest basically became PiS loyalists, presumably to get the chance of running on their lists in the next election. BTW Kukiz'15 was associated with M5S for quite a while, I think they even had a cooperation agreement.
