Meanwhile in Cuckooland 196

Posted on 1 November 20211 November 2021by Tomasz Oryński

It seems Poland has it first Savita Halappanavar. A Polish lawyer informed on her twitter that in the case mirroring the Indian’ women ordeal in Ireland, an expecting mother died after the doctors refused to perform abortion on her in critical situation. They were waiting for the fetus’ heart to stop beating on its own […]

Has the Smoleńsk crash become a cult or religion? If there were any doubts, there should be none after last Sunday. The opposition activists, who organized their counter-manifestation 200 meters further were arrested and charged with “malicious obstruction of a religious act”.

Meanwhile in Cuckooland 194

Posted on 5 October 20215 October 2021by Tomasz Oryński

You might remember that PiS came to power thanks to, amongst other things, a secret recording of the private conversations between politicians (see here). Those recordings, as we know today, were doctored and only those inconvenient to the politicians of the previous ruling party have been released. There was suspicion that Russia is involved in […]

Meanwhile in Cuckooland 193

Posted on 27 September 202128 September 2021by Tomasz Oryński

As everyone expected, the whole politics is just a show. Because how else you could explain, that the politicians, who call each others traitors and attack both The Left and Paweł Kukiz for attempting to work with PiS on the important issues, saying that you should not speak to PiS at all (more on that […]

As it was to be predicted by everyone with at least half of a brain, the Polish government’s actions at the border with Belarus (read more here) have led to tragedy. In a civilized country, the refugees would make themselves known to the Polish border guards and asked for asylum. But after being beaten and […]

Meanwhile in Cuckooland 191

Posted on 14 September 202115 September 2021by Tomasz Oryński

Apparently, the city of Nowa Sól is now the safest town in Poland, if not in Europe. Because how otherwise it could be explained that the main focus of the local prosecutors is a cat named Lucjan?

Remember last summer, during the peak of the COVID epidemics, where ambulances were queuing outside hospitals, and everyone thought that it can’t get any worse? Well, we should never underestimate the PiS government. Because now, the ambulances are parked in the yard and are not helping patients at all. There is not enough crews around […]

Meanwhile in Cuckooland 189 – The Refugee Crisis and Polish Government’s Crimes Against Humanity

Posted on 31 August 202131 August 2021by Tomasz Oryński

There was no Cuckooland last week, as I had to travel to Poland on family business. Unfortunately, the situation I am about to write is happening for more than two weeks now. And I don’t only want to write about it, I want to scream, as this is the biggest scandal taking place on the […]

Meanwhile in Cuckooland 188

Posted on 18 August 202118 August 2021by Tomasz Oryński

When Blisty wanted to write about PiS backing down and submitting to the European Tribunal of Justice ruling last week, I advised caution. Today we know, that my predictions were right: even though the Polish government claims it will ultimately abolish the controversial Disciplinary Chamber of the Highest Court, used to discipline judges that rule […]

Meanwhile in Cuckooland 187

Earlier this year president Duda was praising the work of the Polish Police during the women’s strike. According to him, the police behave in an exceptionally professional way, because “nobody died” during the riots (as he called the women’s strikes last year). He says that as long, as nobody’s hurt it means that the police’s […]
