“About elections”
Political rags
I liked Mr Adam's letter (ANGOR No. 28) briefly assessing the attitude of the elder MP from Mr Sawicki's PSL, who, like any of the PiS, would like Donald Tusk to resign. That's most likely what he thought all along, erstwhile he came back to the country, he just didn't have the chance and chance to say it out loud to the camera.
Adam is right that “...the president cannot be cleaned up after his predecessors." But not only the company that the PiS took from the PSL has contributed to the sutenera being elected president. PSL took the game Simon the anonymus, because he had structures in the field and thanks to this organization he entered the Sejm, and it was on the marshal, having a double share in the failure of Rafał Trzaskowski. But what happened on Thursday night on Friday 3/4 July at Adam Bielan's home showed that we had 2 marshals (Hołownia and Kamiński) as faceless people, although for me it was political sluts. That's what it says online, and I agree. Their night activity of conspiracies with the head of PiS (Kaczyński was also) is an expression of either shocking political folly, or deficiency of imagination, or cynical game calculated to turn the table and catch any scraps falling off it.
Or alternatively than “or” insert “both... and this...”? hard to guess. Even this year, PiS can repeat the 2014 action “Sowa & Friends” in hard version, due to the fact that the meeting, not only this, could have been carefully recorded. Holovnia himself admitted (but did not say where) that he had previously met with another writers. They recorded it there, too? Since there was – and surely there was – no counterintelligence, Bielan knew and recorded it. Deputy Marshal Kamiński, an old political issue, said something about the change of Prime Minister and more circumstantial "post- and pre-election configurations’. If the recording is, both Simon Hołownia and Michał Kamiński should resign. Especially Kamiński should know that Kaczyński did not forget about him, betrayal hates and revenges, revealing recordings. When?
We'll see about that after we've sworn in as president. And don't even think about canceling both conversational adversaries at Bielan's. The PiS will defend them in the vote – and this will prove that the recordings are. What do we have? PRL with a Nazi face. The real, chauvinistic, Catholic, dark, intellectually cowardly, spreading unwarrantedly of greatness; post nobility, sanitation, endecai. Modern, European, friendly Poland proved to be a illusion, which I believed in. And by the way, I remind you that at night, there's a gathering between individuals whose editorials won't let me... Oh! JAN KING
“Omar is ours! Omar is Polish”
Huzia to the emigrant!
In ANGORE No. 28 I found the text “Omar is ours! Omar is Polish”, referring to the incomprehensible, madly even discourse about migrants in Poland. Fortunately, ANGORA's text straightens out many false, biased information on the scale of immigration. I would like to add that Polish psychiatrists should address the problem of the Polish border more urgently.
What do I base my thesis on? Here, a fewer days ago, I spoke to 1 of the publicists (God forbids, he was not of the kind “To Things”) who told me about a bunch of dark-skinned immigrants wandering around Warsaw with pockets stuffed with money. He's even seen them, terrible, collecting cash from ATMs! He besides complained about privileged Ukrainians to get a job. – If Poles were to receive specified subsidies (sic!), they would besides be willing to deliver food on bicycles, which, as we know, is the domain of dark-skinned people staying in our home," he said. He demanded that the authorities send patrols checking foreigners not only at the border, but in all cities. Isn't that a case for psychiatrists?! And it was not a associate in the discussion on a bench in Wilkowy, but an editor of 1 of the opinion-making weeklys.
I wanted to tell the editor that I think we live in different countries, due to the fact that I have a different image of the lives of immigrants. While everyone sees what they want to see, as Jan Rojewski, the author of the text in ANGORA, is it not, however, that people spread their sick visions deliberately? In this case, it surely is.
And what is the fact about the scale of the emigration of Poles and immigrants staying here? statistic are ruthless in this regard. After years of being a country of expatriates in just 10 years, we became a host country for visitors from all over the world. Let us skip the period before the Second planet War, erstwhile more than 2 million people left Poland. Post-war trips were: about 40 1000 people in the 1960s and 1970s; about 3 million people left Poland for economical reasons in the 1970s and 1980s, after 2004, another 1.5 million people left Poland. It is estimated that present about 20 million Poles live in the world. What would my interviewer say if the authorities of Berlin, London, Dublin, etc. sent patrols to the streets catching Poles 15 years ago? And what is the scale of immigration? In 2011, it lived in Poland – according to the Census of the Commons – 100 1000 foreigners, i.e. they were 0.3 percent of the population at the time. According to the census of 2021, there were about 1.3 million foreigners in Poland.
Today, the number of foreigners is estimated at 2.3 – 2.5 million (approximately 6 percent). Thus, in 15 years the population of foreigners increased 25 times. There were respective reasons for this. First permissions to work for citizens of respective countries from the East, then the anticipation of settling on the basis of the Polish Charter, yet – which affected the increase in the number of immigrants most – the outbreak of war in Ukraine. Ukrainians so account for almost 80% of visitors. My observations show that Ukrainians are doing rather well in Poland: they are active, thus filling the deficit of the native labour force; they learn and study, get real estate; they plan to stay for longer.
I get the impression that, contrary to what my interviewer said about subsidies, they work below their qualifications and endure poorer working conditions and wages to look forward to stabilising their position in Poland. ARTUR BUKE
About Ukrainians in Poland
The first Ukrainians came to us respective decades ago. Initially, as economical immigrants, they slow learned Western working methods and requirements. As a consequence of the differences in exchange rates and prices in both countries, their earnings were advanced in relation to what they could gain at home. However, I remember a time erstwhile work in Russia was competitive for working on Polish construction. I would like to add any information from authoritative statistic and research, which the NBP regularly conducts.
As it is known, the central bank is not dependent on the government, so it is hard to think of pro-government propaganda. In short, immigration is more of a gold mine for us than a bottomless well. Visitors are young, very active and well educated. We have no problem with their crime, either.
What results from reports and statistic on Ukrainians in Poland? Over 90% of Ukrainians who came to us before the war broke out work. Those who arrived later work around 70%, but among them there is simply a large proportion of women with children. It is 1 of the highest employment rates of immigrants from all OECD countries, and only 25% of them work in Germany. Almost half of Ukrainian immigrants are people with higher education. In addition, they are young and active due to the fact that half of them were under 44 years old. According to ZUS data, in 2024 foreigners paid PLN 18.5 billion for pension and pension contributions. This is as much as 5.9 percent of the full income of the Social safety Office.
In turn, the authors of the Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego study on immigration wrote explicitly that given the estimated value of taxes paid in Poland by migrants from Ukraine, it can be concluded that for all 1 PLN received by Ukrainian citizens under the programme The 800 plus migrants paid about PLN 5.4 to the Polish budget. These are the facts.
The aforementioned reports estimation that Ukrainians pay to our budget from various titles (contributions, direct and indirect taxes) around PLN 20 billion, while the cost of payments "800 plus" and peculiar activities in schools related to the stay of Ukrainian children is the cost of the state budget of about PLN 5 billion. There are sometimes opinions about specified or another cases of "abuse of hospitality" by Ukrainian immigrants.
As in all community, black sheep are found there that spoil the reputation of others. Police statistic do not confirm in any way thesis that foreigners in any way contribute to the increase of crime in our country. For years, Ukrainians have been importantly filling gaps in the labour market, especially in sectors and activities without advanced qualifications. besides due to the fact that they work below their training. In any major stores, mostly Ukrainians are serving customers, and they are doing better and better. Since we deficiency specialists, we should do everything we can to get those qualified to return to their professions (health, IT). ELA
Go to the wall!
In fact, after the election, it's said and written that erstwhile the votes were counted something was wrong, we got utilized to it. Each party, erstwhile losing, raises this subject – and what? Nothing. Wrong, human thing. Anyone entering the premises of the Circuit Election Commission sees respective people. No 1 unauthorized will enter the district. And there may be miracles in copying results, numbers of votes cast in peripherals. Are all those peripherals dishonest and corrupt people? The least likely, but already larger in the district. Especially since the Law and Justices removed them. Everyone seems to know that, but no 1 has always been punished for a mistake, including giving up money, not to mention the sound strategy across the country, so that no 1 can think of anything else. But punishment for mistakes may not be due to the fact that no organization will be curious in changing the law.
Will it be that alternatively of the force of a single voice there will be a voice of force? I don't think the Capitol encore is threatening us. due to the fact that since the outgoing Duda felt it was appropriate to mock 94-year-old prof. Strzembosz due to the fact that he had made himself a clown, he made a circus out of the Palace. And if there's a circus, there's a batyr man in the circus raising 2 bullets on the bar and nodding his head like a puppy mascot under my father's Fiat 125p window. It's my old summary of these choices. But there are (still!) newspapers.
One of the journals, a democratic product, with a long pedigree, should change its name. due to the fact that this present, historical, fits it like the name NSZZ “Solidarity” to Peter Duda. With the stubbornness of a maniac, he increasingly publishes the alleged symmetry, making water from the brain to people who collectively leave the net. Young, creative journalists are there for a cure, and 1 woman (a tiny letter intended), afraid about the image of Kaczyński, contributed greatly to the failure of Trzaskovsky. Yeah. Thanks to useful idiots, present not only in politics, but in all media, we are already taking a sharper course towards the wall. I am little and little optimistic that Poland will be able to reconstruct normality.
You can see that the Holovnia itself is no longer enough, due to the fact that A.M. Żukowska of the Left has warmed up the vocals with J. Żakowski (the 1 who said that PiS has nothing to be afraid of), as if it was here to massacre the Coalition, restoring the power of the Dominal Change, “afor Poland to grow stronger and people to get more rye”, Because it's already worked out after 10 years of playing. Good luck in further efforts for the well-being of real Poles, Mr. Hołownia, Mrs. Żukowska, Mr. Zandberg, Mr. Piasecki, Mr. Morozowski, Mr. Czarnek, Mrs. Wielowieyska, Mr. Matecki and many others. ‘Long live Poland, Long live Poles” – how with large enthusiasm shouts (again?) president Elek Nawrocki. And Prime Minister Tusk should do what Robert Lewandowski did.
Say enough, I'm retiring, and you guys keep winning with the old president and the fresh coach Kaczyński. Shall we go downstairs? Oh, no, due to the fact that you can't get any lower. Good. That's what we wanted. Do we really know what we want? I uncertainty it. BLOOD
Social affairs
There is no logic in all of this. If there has been an mistake in any procedure (although one), then this procedure should be repeated, which means the request to recalculate all the votes. Is it my knowing that I would like to know how many votes were actually received by individual candidates? After all, the presumption that the number of mistakes made during the election process does not mean who won is illogical and unacceptable to people thinking.
The question arises whether candidates themselves should not be curious in who actually received more votes; triumph requires 1 of them to receive a minimum of 1 vote more. In this situation we do not know the number of votes obtained by candidates. I don't want to mention the names of candidates here, I don't want to put unnecessary emotions in this statement, I mean the meaning of the matter. The State (government) is from ensuring that I, a citizen of the Republic of Poland with full civilian rights, warrant a fair number of my vote according to my will as a voter.
Is it not amazing that PKW does not know how many votes each candidate received? Amazing! If that is not the case, I will consider that this was the last of my choices (also my closest ones) and this letter, which I address to ANGORY Editorial Office, will be an excuse for my future citizenship (...). I will most likely not be isolated in my opinion, and this will be a large blow to the broadly understood democracy in Poland in the future. I would add that all of this is steeped in politics, but politics was justified in electoral silence, and on 1.06. the substance became a social matter. I'm signing my name and name to mark my position on this case. TADEUSZ KASPERczyk, Kraków
We chose the president.
Over a period ago, a second, decisive circular of presidential elections took place. And Charles Nawrocki won it. I can't realize how this could have happened. A man with a very unusual résumé won. Years of youth – it is sad to remember. A later period – possibly a small better. So what if a man is educated and intelligent? You can't forget the past. On the another hand, the president of Warsaw, Rafał Trzaskowski. A politician experienced, intelligent and decent – I was certain he would win the election. And he's losing! I am incapable to realize this – like millions of Poles. Something incredible! After all, if we truly love Poland – and it is hard to uncertainty that – then the election of Rafał Trzaskowski as president should be obvious. Well, in this situation, we can only effort to be optimistic.
To hope that everything will work out somehow, that in view of the good of the country, politicians will constantly take action beneficial for Poles and Poles. And the fresh president, Mr. Karol Nawrocki, will not just be a executor of intelligent ideas from Żoliborz. Well, you can dream. And it may even be essential – due to the fact that sometimes dreams come true. And for Mr Roman Giertych – thanks. To conclude these sad considerations: in fresh months, the ruling coalition – with the PO at the head – did not deserve peculiar praise. Including campaigning. Unfortunately, that is the truth.

A small different look.
1. Mirosław Hermaszewski, whom I met in the Wroclaw regiment erstwhile he went into space, explored the impact of weightlessness on taste buds. Glory in the weightless state will examine bacteria excreted in the faeces. Actually, it's kind of a continuation...
2. Korwin-Mikke, in a way an intelligent person, squeaked after proceeding information in the tv studio that more children could be born in single-sex marriages than in conventional families. OK, there's a gay couple surviving on my street with 3 kids who are biological fathers. Most neighbors have 2 children, they are besides childless, and 3 children have only 1 couple. As a declared gentleman, Mr. Korwin should apologize for his reaction.
3. I read about Israeli precise murders committed on military and Iranian scientists. Precision is “unimaginable”: we shoot an explosive into an apartment, where the full household sleeps, plus surrounding neighbors.
4. erstwhile I buy a bottle of "President" champagne, I have the right to check out the remainder of it without accusing me of not believing in the honesty of the cashier, not trusting the chain of shops and ignoring democracy. If Charles Nawrocki had the balls, he should have requested a vote number to silence the full noise. And that would be the first proof that he is the independent president of all Poles, trying to unite the Nation. Mr Marek Sadkovski
If you don't know what's going on, then...
Watching our football players play, it seems that they do not care about the results of the games. They behave as they erstwhile did in the commune, erstwhile the regulation was: “Whether you stand or lie down, you should be equally.” This rule did not take into account the motivation to improve labour performance and productivity, but mainly afraid the presence and simulation of worker behaviour. Finally, I believe that there should be major modifications in this respect not only to footballers, but to all athletes in squad games. Their salaries should look about as follows: Both the trainer and individual players should receive for each winning match their double monthly wage fixed in the engagement, for a tied match – in addition to half the salary, and for a lost match – only a bare salary. I think that this kind of motivation can perfectly improve the situation in our sport. Prof. HENRYK B.
