Research suggests that Poland’s public opinion of Ukrainians is indeed worsening. According to a March 2025 poll by the respected CBOS Centre, just 50% of Poles are in favour of accepting Ukrainian refugees, a fall of seven percentage points in four months. Two years ago, the figure was 81%.
The Polish state should really be doing its utmost worst if a Russia sympathiser can poll third. Have they forgotten how many Poles died at the hands of the Soviets?
As always, it is a bit more complicated.
backstory - we talk about 3 political parties here: pis, mid-right extremist, ruled 2015-2023 + prez 2015-2025 (hope so); PO, renamed to KO recently and others, ruled ~2009?-2014 and trying 2023-now, but prez can and do block their works a lot; and konfa, under many names, includes mentioned slawomir meme-tzen, never rules, never proved they are the bads.
Both mid-right extremists (pis) and far-right extremist (konf) build their voters on fact that Poland is a bit poor. While actual centre party (ko) had their rules thru few hard world-wide economic crisis, making lives a bit harder, then they also failed to correctly announce their victories, so noone noticed these.
If “economist failures” were bad, let’s turn someone else - left extremists who talk lgbt only (that is secondary to economy or whole non important factor)? or right extremists who promises moneys? Yeah, promises. Very same awesome moneys as whole world sees effects of usa and tariffs right now.
The hate to [redacted] rus? who cares! we hate germs (as Germany) even more, and their european union that takes our independence away, hurr durr! (/s). Right politics mesmerized society to think they are working for sake of independent, solo, and strong Poland, totally not for sake of [redacted] putin.
Yep, left parties really do fail at putting the wealth disparity left, right, and center. They get distracted with whatever or issue exists that would be great to be tackled, but not first :/
Oh I meant more of
PO (the center) did much awesome job for economy during their time back then and now too. But those things are hard to see for common voter. To keep prices and inflation low? aye, normal job, or many are not aware of what the inflation is! This looks like they did nothing for the citizen, worthles gov!
While the righties (pis, light extreme) they [redacted] inflation like [redacted] [redacted], but again, most voters have no idea what does that mean, but then pis also put moneys directly to wallets of citizens, oooooh that was noticeable af!
Rookies! Our (Germany) bootlickers poll second or first, depending on which surveyor you ask.
This is for a presidential election with a two round system. So he basically has no chance winning it. However his party is at 17% in polling for the Sejm.
