As many as 45.5% of Poles are negatively assessed by the fact that the active MP of KO Roman Giertych is the proxy of Przemysław Kral, president of Zondacrypto. 7.3 percent of respondents look at this positively, and 16.6 percent neutrally. The SW investigation survey of 31 August and 1 September shows a clear problem with the merger of a parliamentary mandate and a loud legal matter.
The largest group of respondents says:
The consequence is clear. W SW investigation for Onetu 45.5% of respondents negatively assessed the fact that Roman Giertych is simply a proxy for Przemysław Kral. affirmative evaluation gathered 7.3 percent, neutral 16.6 percent. The sentences did not have 16.9 percent participants, and 13.7 percent admitted that they did not know the case.
The survey was conducted on 31 August and 1 September 2026 by the CAWI method on a nationwide example of 800 adults. The amount selection took into account the gender, age and size of the place of residence. The highest percent of negative assessments was recorded in the group from 35 to 49 years, where it amounted to 50.3%. Among people under the age of 24, 23 percent replied that they did not know the case.
Member's mandate and function as a lawyer
Giertych is an active associate of the Civic Coalition and an advocate. In late August, he reported that he represented Krala. This decision has sparked a dispute over standards of public life, especially since Zondacrypto itself has a wide political dimension.
The MP explained that thanks to this function he could account for the regulation of the Law and assure him that he did not charge the Kral. Even Sławomir Nitras from KO saw the problem of mixing roles. Earlier debate on the credibility of the actions of Giertych It was so not closed. fresh data show that the political justification of the MP did not convince the largest group of respondents.
Poles anticipate clear standards
The lawyer has the right to defend the client and each individual afraid benefits from the presumption of innocence. However, the MP is not just a private lawyer. He holds a public mandate, belongs to the ruling camp and participates in a political dispute surrounding the case. That is why the public has the right to ask where the professional work ends and the conflict of political interests begins.
The poll doesn't settle legal issues. It shows something else: social consent to vaguely combining functions is small. A summary of 45.5% of negative ratings from 7.3 percent affirmative is simply a signal which the Civic Coalition cannot honestly pass as a organization attack.
The State must clarify the substance to the end
On 2 September, the services detained 3 more people in connection with the investigation, including investor Rafał Zaorski. Stopping doesn't mean guilt. Liability may be established by the court after the proceedings have been carried out. However, Poles request a full explanation of links, decisions and financial flows, without protection of anyone due to organization signs.
Trust in the state and equality towards the law are at stake. If politicians want to account for opponents, they themselves must apply standards that leave no area for suspicion of the usage of the mandate. In this sense, the answer to the respondents is sober: the mandate of a associate should service citizens alternatively than blur the boundaries between public interest and private legal practice.
