The current hot topic in Poland #plpol is the selection of judges to the National Council of the Judiciary by MPs.
The voting was "cancelled" by the Marshal of the Sejm after PiS MP came to her and said "it needs to be cancelled, or we're gonna lose" (recorded by microphones), which was after the voting procedure.
The Left has already informed the prosecution of the possible commission of a crime by Elżbieta Witek, and KO is demanding her removal from office.
Appeal Court rejected Gazeta Polska's complaint on legal decision to stop spreading the "LGBT-free zone" stickers.
"The court notes analogies here, drawing attention to the similarity of the slogans to Nazi German plaques with the inscriptions "Jews and dogs are prohibited from entering" or "Jews enter at their own risk".

Today, list numbers were announced. PiS's is 2.

He described this video as the last moments of his phone memory before one of them smashed it on the floor.

The action is supported by politicians from the Law and Justice party.

second biggest party in Poland adds civil partnerships to their program. announces it without using words like "gay", "LGBT" or "same-sex", to not scary potential electorate - yes, that's possible as you can see.
tweet translation:
"Time for civil partnership in Poland❗
👉 Not everyone wants to or can get married, and there are over 5 million such people in informal, although permanent, relationships in Poland! The state must recognize couples living together as close to each other!"
