After the fresh local elections in Poland, Prime Minister Tusk seems to be a political winner who has won the left electorate. This may be amazing for many, but looking at the current Citizens' Coalition (KO) program, it is hard to find clear differences compared to the Left's program. Recently, KO has adopted attitudes that erstwhile were only characteristic of the Left.
Intrigue
While the KOs and the Left have varied importantly recently, these borders are becoming increasingly blurred. They draw attention to women's rights by calling for free access to abortion, and advance partnerships for both gay and heterosexual couples. These attitudes, which were erstwhile a major part of the Left's program, have now found their place in the activities and declarations of the civilian Coalition.
Prime Minister Tusk, gaining the support of the Left electorate, seems to usage political maneuvers to grow his influence. The decision to take a separate run at the local elections (Levice called for the start of a joint letter with KO), may be the key to knowing the Prime Minister's strategy. This decision, aimed at taking over the electorate of the Left, which succeeded in looking at the results of the local elections.
Prime Minister Tusk seems to be skillfully exploiting changes in the political agendas of the groups. As a result, it can win fresh groups of voters, becoming an increasingly universal candidate who represents both liberal and leftist environments. This strategy may prove crucial, not only in the context of the local struggles, but besides in the context of the future elections to the European Parliament in June this year, and in the presidential elections in 2025.
No consent to joint launch of KO and Left
It is worth noting that Prime Minister Tusk did not decide to run together with the Left in the local election due to the fact that he had a plan. decision your group towards centre-left and take over most left-wing demands. In the light of the crushing results of the election, where Left suffered severe defeat, the electorate of this group began to decision towards the Civic Coalition, and Prime Minister Tusk implemented his plan for local government elections.
Let us take a closer look at the attitudes of both groups. Both the Civic Coalition and the Left advocate free access to abortion, as well as demands on partnerships for both gay and heterosexual couples. This is simply a clear signal that the boundaries between the 2 groups began to blur.
Donald Tusk, gaining expanding support from the Left electorate, skillfully maneuvers political players. His reluctance to run together with the Left in the local election resulted from the plan to take over this electorate, especially since the Left is the weakest link of the ruling coalition and the easiest way to alienate it from this arrangement. Now, after electoral success and weakening the Left, the Prime Minister may search certain changes in the government.
Victim of Intrigue - Left
Left becomes the biggest loser in this situation. Part of her electorate was stolen by KO, and part by Law and Justice (PISA). The ruling coalition will not fall apart, due to the fact that the Left realizes that this is her last chance to regulation this parliamentary term. After this, it can fall into political absence, and its MPs can change colors by moving to the KO and WRI.
It is besides worth noting that part of the electorate of the Left was besides taken over by the Law and Justice (PiS), for which social transfers are more crucial than moral issues. It's a amazing turn of events, especially given the political divisions we've had. However, after the local elections, it can be noted that any left-wing voters found their place among the PiS supporters.
For many people, the precedence is not so much the issue of abortion or partnerships, but more of everyday life and social support. This is where the Law and Justice are successful, presenting programmes and actions that aim to improve surviving conditions and financial support for the most deprived.
The success of the intrigue – local elections
The latest self-government elections have shown that the Law and Justice organization can inactive attract an electorate that seeks concrete solutions and improves its material situation. For many voters, issues specified as social assistance, access to wellness care and support for families are more crucial than ideological or moral issues.
So after the local election, the KO leader seems to be a political strategy that cleverly utilized the situation to gain a fresh electorate and gain more power and influence. Indisputably, the political situation in Poland has changed, and Prime Minister Tusk seems to be on a wave of success, gaining further points in the fight for public support, despite the fact that he failed and failed to honour the promises of the parliamentary elections (100 specifics for 100 days of governance – only 9).
But can the Left reverse this trend? This question is now becoming crucial for the future of this group. Following the crushing results in the local elections, the Left now needs to take action to reconstruct assurance and public support. It will be essential to specify a fresh strategy that takes into account the changing preferences of voters and current social needs.
Effective plotter and his historical actions
For now, however, everything points to the fact that the Prime Minister of the ruling coalition is skillfully maneuvering political players, gaining expanding support. His decisions and actions are aimed at acquiring an electorate that feels concerned, or dissatisfied with the erstwhile coalition rule. Prime Minister Tusk's movements may have long-term consequences for Polish politics, and the Left must rapidly take action to avoid falling behind and not losing its voters.
Time will show whether the Left can counter this trend and regain its support, or the leader of KO will proceed his political hegemony, winning further victories in elections. Ultimately, the destiny of Polish politics is in the hands of voters who will form the future of the country by their decisions.
Prime Minister Tusk, historically during his 2 governments showed that failing to keep electoral promises, lies and the introduction of draconian reforms did not discourage people from themselves (e.g. "OFE reform" – where pension savings of 16 million Poles were effectively liquidated, and 150 billion PLN from the assets of OFE were "zero" and replaced by write-downs on the accounts of the Social Insurance Institution, increase in retirement age, garbage contracts and rates of respective gross zlotys per hr of work).
No 1 has always responded and has been brought to justice for this grand theft...
It is actual that now they are voting for Tusk, among others, young and naive, not curious in the policy of claiming ignorant, mashed by a better future, but they will besides be victims of the intrigues of this policy. erstwhile they graduate, they will not be able to find a satisfactory and well-paid job, and they will not be able to afford to buy their own apartment. Then problems of self-esteem and of low value, visiting a scientist and beginnings of depression will begin. Then they should remember who they voted for and who offered them “smiled” Poland and this “fantastic” life.
In addition, the leader of KO, historically besides showed how he can effectively and absolutely destruct people who grow up to its competitors and political leaders, disposing of them in various ways, among others, by sending them into political absence, to the European Parliament or to the legislature (co-founders of PO Andrzej Olechowski and Maciej Płażyński, later Zyta Gilowska, Jan Rokita, Paweł Piskorski, or yet Grzegorz Schetyna).
Summary
Regardless of everything, Donald Tusk must be admitted to being effective at what he does, as the latest example was the Left, which suffered a terrible defeat in the local elections.
Another victim will be the rotational marshal - Simon Hołownia, who, in his self-esteem and megalomania, sees nothing but the tip of his own nose. He, like the MP since the feast of six kings, or the erstwhile LPR leader, presently hiding behind parliamentary immunity from the prosecutor, will only be remembered in the next parliamentary election, and anecdotes about him will be told in the parliamentary cruxes as a ridiculous gag called seismflix.
