Just a minute ago Total It experienced the best period in history, having 10 parliamentarians, respective increasingly recognisable figures and though not significant, but rather prestigious position of the Vice-Marszalkini Senate. Objectively, it may not be large achievements, but for a organization created almost exclusively by young politicians, frequently natives, and presenting views completely in Poland niche or even underground, this can be considered a average success. Not 1 that gives triumph, but 1 that gives hope for any triumph in the future.
Unfortunately, even average success proved besides hard to lift for members and members of the Together, who decided to throw it off their backs and go back 1 word erstwhile the organization had six mandates. As a result, the classically social democratic views will have as many as 2 representations in parliament, but with 5 mandates. Poland social democracy split into bijatovians and zandbergers. In this way, classically left-wing voters will have a wide choice in the upcoming elections, it is simply a pity that it is meaningless.
Partiocracy: the first serious test
The most curiosity in this division is that it did not happen as a consequence of ideological or programme disputes, but a simple argument over organization politics. The organization was to decide on club membership and possible government entry. It was so a decision of considerable importance, 1 of the most crucial in this term, but political groups make specified key, purely political decisions tens or even hundreds of them throughout their lifetime. They usually don't break up due to them – individual members don't throw papers erstwhile the group makes a choice different from their own opinion. In a situation where any decision of higher importance means a split, due to the fact that a group threatens to leave, 1 cannot make a policy, which, however, is simply a squad sport.
In one, Paul Kukiz is right – parthiocracy exists in us. but there's nothing incorrect with that. This means that politicians gotta get along with each other, including their ‘own’, which is the first test of seriousness that gives voters a sign that they are dealing with people worthy of giving them rather quite a few work or, on the contrary, with an unstable social group that can argue even where to spend fresh Year's Eve.
Classically left-wing politicians in Poland unfortunately belong to the second group. It's rather surprising, due to the fact that it would seem that in a organization it is the left-wing people who should feel like fish in water. Collective reasoning is the foundation of the left-wing worldview. The left should be swarmed with people who have the interest of a group, collective, organization, organization or yet political community higher than their own interests and current views. However, it is the other – the Polish left is populated by extremist individualists who constantly insult each other, get flabbergasms and argue among themselves.
Although the niche environment of the Polish classical left is created by people of mediate or even higher class, having advanced cultural capital and good education, paradoxically, it is more Polish and classy than the Law and Justice. It's a shame he's not utilizing it to gain the assurance of classy voters, but to make a constant brawl. The argument, the conviction of my own infallibility, the deficiency of assurance in the group, the constant emotional uplift and the inability to compromise are the qualities that first come to head erstwhile I hear the word “Poles”. All this is besides in abundance on the Polish left. Meanwhile, Kaczyński's group acts like a German machinery – not very innovative, sometimes even simple in design, but at least 1 can be certain that it will not break during a long route.
First split, not first drama
The right uses left-wing methods in its political practice, and it wins. The left, populated by snarling Marxists-individualists, falls to the position of a notable component of local political folklore. After all, there have already been many “loud” drains and drams. I was most stuck throwing organization IDs by Luke Moll, who can be an highly superb commentator, a large talker, and an excellent melancholy companion, but his departure was rather a crimson nativity scene. Moll left the collective alone due to the fact that he feels like a communist, and the organization refused to admit specified views, at least officially. alternatively of pragmatically addressing the matter, he decided to insult his friends and colleagues in effect. Not a collective approach. In Luke’s case, at least, it went about for ideas. Agnieszka Dziemianowicz-Bąk left Together due to the fact that she wanted a joint start on the left in the 2019 European elections. Together, it yet launched together with the remainder of the left in the parliamentary elections inactive in the same year and in 2023, so from a collective point of view, the full argument yet proved completely pointless. In this case, not even the strategy, but the current political tactics were argued.
But now there has not been a loud departure, but a real divided – parliamentary representation Together will shrink by half. Moreover, the Biejatians left just a fewer days before the key congressional party, on which very crucial decisions were to be made regarding the direction of its policy, which was reportedly amazed by even the Zandbergers. There was a hazard that the organization would collectively make a decision they disagree with, so they threw papers unannounced a fewer days before it was made. specified things should not be done in any organization, even in a building materials warehouse, let alone in a political organization that is inherently more collective than a company. This is simply unfair to people you've worked with for years.
What's worse, the whiteheads seem to have absolutely no plan. possibly they'll start a party, possibly an association, think and see. Let us hope that during this thought they will not quarrel again, and they will not appear from the bullies yet, let us give it to the foreman. If they had left after the convention and announced that they had joined the Left, it would have been a large mistake, but at least as such. What actually happened resembles the vicinity social group of 20 - year - olds.
Of course, you can realize the opposition of the beativists to leaving the Left Club in Parliament. The left in Poland represents niche views adequate that it cannot afford to divide. It should catch as much as possible, which means it should besides scope under the liberal left wing. Left-wing liberals are very annoying, but against the background of, for example, Peeselists, they are rather conscious people. Ultimately, 1 organization of the Left should be formed, based on 3 foundations: progressive liberals from Spring, post-communists from the SLD and alleged true-levica from Together. beautiful sensible design. Post-communists would supply experience, cunning and the essential dose of cynicism, left-wing liberals with contacts in corporations and businesses, which will should be arranged somehow, and together idealism and cognition of politics, i.e. social, communication, housing, health, etc. Yes, there would be disputes and arguments, but they would not be unsurpassable.
The decision to leave the left club is firmly argumented. The tactical removal of the full Together to the position of left-wing critics of the current centre-right government could supply additional points of support in the electorate that does not agree with Donald Tusk's government line but does not necessarily want to vote for the right. The government would not fall apart due to this, so there would be no hazard of the Law and Justice returning to power. At the same time, discouraged coalition voters would have a choice another than the alt-right. If Together thus expanded its own electorate, it could negociate with the another communities on the left with a much better position before the next parliamentary election.
Everyone's getting along. Not the left.
Even if the decision together can theoretically be regarded as a mistake, then the breech run is simply a mistake of a much larger caliber. This is an example of disloyalty many levels over what made Paulina Matysiak. In fact, it reduces the chances of consolidating the left in Poland, as it adds further individual animosities, which play a powerful function in these environments – unfortunately –. The main task of classical leftists in this word was not to fall apart. Further, broadening the electorate, designation and political position so that social democrats can give a speech on the broad left. After the break-up, a disorganized group of social democrats will stay in the club of the Left, which can be played freely in a million ways. Outside the club, there will be a ellipse of the greatly weakened organization Together, which will be even more cut into another political environments on the left and furious at disloyal runaways. besides from the point of view of the good of the full left in Poland, the break-up is most likely the worst script on the table.
Even if Magdalena Biejat becomes a presidential candidate in return, it's completely unprofitable. Expecting Biejat to build a political position in the presidential election is simply a dream of a beheaded head – they will sooner completely burn it. Although it is most likely that her candidacy will not be noticed. Especially if she's competing with individual else from Together. In these elections, polarization and the temper of fighting good against evil will play, there will not be much area for a 3rd party. Besides, building political position at the presidential elections in Poland is putting locks on the sand – for a while it may look interesting, but in the long run it does not give anything concrete. Kukiza or Holownia prove this. After the election, the Biejatovian will likewise dissolve in the Left's environment – any will most likely gain a decent position, guaranteeing alleged taking seats on the lists (which do not always appear to be taking), but as an environment they will play no role.
There are immense differences in the PiS. Morawiecki Technocrats hatred each another with Alto-Right Ziobrists, various factions and cateries are there from a thunderstorm, but at any fundamental level they can work together and work together. They are so a very serious political force. In Poland, the most serious 1 – they do not rule, among another things, due to the fact that after 2 terms of self-government they forgot to have coalition capacity.
Classic left-wingers are the most quarrelsome political environment in our country, which the adversaries first search in their niche bubble, and fight the right-winger deals with if adequate time. In order to get this back on your feet, it would be essential to return to the absolute foundations – that is, to grasp what community and group reasoning are.
