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
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 […]

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 […]

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
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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

It seems I am a really, really bad journalist. For nearly 200 chapters of that series I tried to keep a close eyes on developments in Poland and somehow I missed a very important fact: that every worker in Poland in recent years got a 60% pay raise. Surely, I don’t know how it is […]
