You asked 👇
HOW DID TUSK GET BACK IN?
Poland has a President as well as a Prime Minister. The President is head of state, the Prime Minister runs the government day to day.
Tusk was President of the European Council in Brussels - one of the top jobs in the EU. Big salary, big prestige. He came back to Poland in 2021 to take over his old party, Civic Platform.
In October 2023 there was the general election. PiS - Law and Justice - actually got the most votes as a single party, but not a majority. Tusk put together a coalition of three - his Civic Coalition, plus Third Way, plus the Left.
Between them they had just enough seats to take power. So President Duda had to give Tusk the chance to form a government, and he became Prime Minister again in December 2023.
How did he win?
He didn't win the conservative, working class, rural Poland. He won the big cities - Warsaw, Gdansk, Wroclaw - and he aimed his campaign at white liberal middle class women and young graduates who want to be seen as European, not Polish.
Poland has secure borders. They have no mass no experience of the difficulties that are ahead .
No immigration from Somalia, Afghanistan, places like that. Most people there have never lived with what we have lived with in England. So it's easy to vote liberal when you don't have to live with the consequences.
Why would he leave a cushy EU job in Brussels to go back?
Because Brussels needed him back in Warsaw. PiS were blocking EU federalism. They wanted to keep the Zloty, keep their gold, keep their borders, keep their own courts. They were a problem for Germany and Brussels.
Tusk is their man in Warsaw. Put him back in to take over the courts, take over the Tribunal, open the borders, and get Poland into the Euro.
That's why he came back. Not for Poland - for Brussels.
@D_Tarczynski have I got this about right ?

Imagine you are a dental hygienist and live in Sweden..
You are employed to help “migrant children” with their dental issues.
As part of your job you examine the wisdom teeth development of the kids and you notice that 80% of those “kids” have fully formed wisdom teeth, implying they are not kids at all but adults older than the age of 18.
You tell the Swedish Migration Agency and they advise you to put it in writing.
When you send exact details, with examples of specific patients you are suspended, investigated and fired for disclosing private information relating to patients.
This happened to Bernt Herlitz in 2017.
When he appealed the unfair dismissal he ultimately lost and was fined about $50,000.
He and his family faced financial hardship and almost lost their home, until some generous benefactors raised money for him. Bernt remains unemployed today, despite staff shortages for dentists in his area in Gotland.
At the time, Sweden scoffed at the tests and claimed they were “discriminatory” but since then they have quietly brought in mass dental testing, for those whose age is in doubt, by the National Board of Forensic Medicine.
Bernt deserves a medal. Not vilification and unemployment.

To those MPs, usually Labour, constantly banging on about Bangladesh, Pakistan, Palestine? I have the following advice...
Go to your constituency and LOOK AROUND.
Dump, after dump, after dump.
Society collapsing, public services non-existent, schools crumbling away.
The contract between the state and the taxpayer has completely broken down.
We are on the verge of something quite ugly.
So I wish the Bangladeshis over there well, I really do. But to be brutally honest, I just don't care.
Our concern, as British MPs, should be about what is happening in our constituencies, our communities, our country.
OBVIOUSLY.

I don’t want to post the video. You’ve all seen it. But I do want to write a love letter…
Dear everyone in Britain, ( even you illegals)
Just so you understand. The poppy is for the boys who never got to grow old. For the boys who were still somebody’s baby, brother, uncle or father. More than 600,000 of them.
It doesn’t matter if you support war, hate your country, think you are a woman (even though you are a man). It doesn’t matter which God you pray to, or if you pray to none at all.
It doesn’t matter who you vote for, what climate narrative you believe, or whether you believe Israel should exist or not!
The poppy isn’t for you!
It’s for those who came before. Those who fought for your right to be weird, annoying or even foreign.
The poppy is how we say thank you. Thank you for giving us time, peace and choice.
And attempting to ban our poppy by declaring it politically divisive isn’t a move towards freedom. It is an act of suppression. Understand that.
The poppy is about love and loss. For you!
So stick your rainbow flags and every other flag where the sun doesn’t shine and just wear your poppy. Those boys did not die as symbols. They died for you!
Did you know that poppies grew across the battlefields where so many fell? As though even the land refused to forget the blood once given to defend it.
So the poppy is for them. For those who came before us and paid in youth, in hope, in breath, in blood, so that we might have the freedom to be arseholes.
So that we might even have the freedom to fight over the ridiculous, the inconsequential and the insane.
Revere it, celebrate it and wear it. The very least you can do is that.
Best
The ordinary people.

♦️WHITE PRIVILEGE♦️
This is how our cotton mills and wool mills made their profits, which afforded them their fine stone-built mansions on the outskirts of mill towns.
It was dangerous work, fingers were often lost, eye injuries common, no comfort breaks, no health insurance and no factory nurse.
This work was done on empty bellies after a walk to work. Malnutrition was common place and discipline hard. A water barrel with a wooden ladle for dry dusty days as cotton dander filled the choking air.
There were no holidays to look forward to, no sick pay, and kids as young as 7 sent to work in the miserable conditions their parents stomached for a lifetime.
They didn't play much, they were too knackered for that. A cold hard bed was all they could hope for. Arthritis and joint pains kicked in early as crippled fingers in their middle years struggled with looms.
And our MPs talk about reparations for slavery, when every God damned nation was using slaves.
White privilege... you disgust me. There should be a plaque of remembrance dedicated to the entire working class!

The Covid jabs should never have been authorised for anyone. Pfizer and Moderna’s own trial data which they tried to hide for 75 years, shows one in 800 people will suffer death or disability each time they took an injection. The fact that the shots given out to the public were not those given emergency use approval and were far more deadly means the real world risk of death or disability from the Covid 19 ‘gene therapy’ treatment was one in 80 to one in 120. With many more suffering less severe but serious side effects.
The fact that the Covid jabs were approved and encouraged for pregnant women and children is beyond evil.
At least I stopped the Government from approving them for toddlers and infants in the UK, ( under 5’s ) they didn’t dare after my speech in Parliament of 13/12/22.
As for me my life changed immediately after that speech, I found out who my friends really were.

Yet again our women targeted by this absolute shit.
Three foreign men on the 1C at Knightswood this morning, off their heads, screaming at the female driver because they wouldn’t pay.
The one in grey then exposed himself twice while the bus was packed with women and young schoolgirls, then punched the screen.
Sick of it.
Every single day another incident. Another one.
Scottish men: if you see this and sit there doing nothing, you’re part of the problem.
Start calling it out. Start doing more.
Our women and girls are being targeted in our own neighbourhoods.
Enough.

Dominic Cummings just said what everyone in defence knows but no one dares say.
Asked what is the biggest threat to Britain's Special Forces - is it China? Is it Russia? Is it Iran?
His answer: No.
It's not China. It's not Russia. It's not Iran.
The biggest threat to the SAS is BRITISH MOD lawyers, the Cabinet Office, and Whitehall.
In his exact words to the House of Lords committee:
"It's not Putin who's launching lawfare against the SAS;
it's not Putin who's destroyed procurement inside the MoD"
We are watching lawfare waged against our own operators by our own government. While our soldiers are learning drone warfare in Ukraine, civil servants are blocking those lessons coming home because it might hurt their budgets.
Our enemies aren't beating us. We are beating ourselves.
Cummings is usually spot on 🤦
The country is in a tragic state.
As Fred Dibnah said
This country was built by men in overalls and ruined by men in suits.

WOW 🚨 Former Muslim who grew up in an Islamic country says they are all taught in school from a very young age about “migration jihad”
He says that’s the plan being implemented right now in the UK and all over the West. To send Muslims into our countries as “migration jihad” to take us over, this is a plan that’s been in the motion since they were all little kids
“They are allowing migration jihad. I'm saying it blatantly because that's what I grew up learning with other kids in school. Migration jihad is exactly what they're allowing”
“Migration jihad is the essential doctrine of Islam. It's what Islam was built on”
“It's when Muhammad migrated from Mecca to, Medina, previously called Yathrib, hom and his early followers, moved into Medina, acted as refugees, poor refugees who were harmless, and made allies with some people in the area, some tribes in that area. And shortly after, within the first 5 years, they took over. They took over and they killed many of the tribes and they deceived people. They deceived them on a civilizational level”
He says this is what they were taught in school was the path to a global takeover. He says the plan was to create this new “Islamphobic” term that’s never existed before to avoid criticism and push implement the global takeover
If anyone would know it’s this guy, this man’s name is AJ
- Born and raised in a Muslim majority Arabic speaking country
- Left Islam at the end of his teens
- He then faced severe persecution including a militia raid on his apartment, kidnapping, imprisonment, torture and accusations of working for foreign intelligence
- He described being treated as a “Christian slave” after leaving Islam

The highest national debt and welfare spending in British history. The highest number of workless people in British history. The highest taxes since World War 2 and still they are going up. The tax, borrow and spend socialist virus has broken the economy

WOW - remember Nord Stream?
👇👇👇
For 2 years they tried to tell us Russia blew up its OWN pipeline. 🤦
👇👇👇👇
Russia was selling gas to Germany, making billions, half of Germany's gas came through Nord Stream 1. Nord Stream 2 was brand new, worth $20bn. Why would Russia blow up its own cash machine?
👇👇👇👇
If they wanted to stop the gas they could just turn the tap off - which they already had. 🤦👌
But at the time, a lot of politicians and media said Russia did it to punish Europe and cause an energy crisis.
Now look.
Trial started YESTERDAY in Hamburg. A Ukrainian former special forces officer,
Serhii K., 50, is on trial charged with organising the whole thing.
German Federal Prosecutor says he led a 7-man team, chartered a yacht called Andromeda from Rostock, sailed to near Bornholm Island, and planted military-grade explosives 80m down. Three of the four pipes blown apart.
Charged with sabotage and a war crime for attacking civilian infrastructure.
He denies it. Ukraine denies it. But this is the first time in 4 years we've heard actual evidence in open court, and Germany - Ukraine's biggest backer - is the one bringing the case.
Turns out maybe it wasn't Russia after all.
The MSM thinks the public will accept their bias drivel , those days are gone !

Dear Morrisons, Sainsbury's, Aldi, Lidl, Tesco, Co-Op*
From now on I won't be buying any of your products which contain folic acid, because none of my family is a currently or soon-to-be pregnant woman and, aside from the lack of benefit, folic acid may be harmful to us.
I know we are only 4 people and you have millions of customers and don't care about just 4, but I think you might discover that a lot more than 4 of your customers are angry about this.
Please pressure the government to scrap the law which means huge numbers of food products contain folic acid.
*Waitrose and Marks and Spencer - this applies to you too. I'm just not wealthy enough to shop in your stores.

Today contractors from National Grid turned up at this farm ready to clear all of this vegetation, including the four oaks, without the required dawn bird survey.
It is only because the land owner was on his toes and challenged them that they left.
Plus National Grid has not explained why it is ‘not practicable’ to uphold their DCO obligation to avoid nesting season.
They were not even able to explain why the oaks need to be felled for a bell mouth when they do not cause visibility issues.
This is a horrific disregard for nature.
(This is Bramford to Twinstead, ‘only’ 30km long. Imagine the destruction if Norwich to Tilbury at 180km goes ahead as proposed. We seek underground HVDC laid by cable ploughs for N2T)

After the terrible year for butterflies and bees last year, it was a huge relief to see our first Marbled White since 2023. I think it was 'brand' new! The flower meadows are alive today with hundreds of different #butterflies #flowers #flowermeadow #cornwall
