Fraternal weakness

A few weeks before the parliamentary elections, thousands of Poles found a letter in the e -mail boxes or received the SSMESC with an appeal: “Hide your grandmother’s passport, do not let her vote.” Prime Minister Yaroslav Kachinsky described this action as rudeness. "The elders must be respected!" he shouted at one of the election rallies. But it was clear to everyone that his anxiety about the elderly was caused by one - they were the basis of his electorate.

The grandchildren did not succeed in hiding passports. Statistics confirm that the grandparents adoring the twins and heated by the most conservative Catholic media, grandparents moved to polling stations. It would be not to pass the new victory of the brothers if young and educated voters who usually did not go to vote did not respond to this march of old people who were unprecedented in post -communist Poland. Thus ended the “twin era”-most Poles cast voted the liberal “civilian platform”, led by Donald Tupskoye, the Kachinsky-prime minister loses his post, and without him the Kachinsky-President will lose all power. The brothers' reign will most likely remain in memory as a convulsive reaction of society to the painful integration of the country in the EU. Got used to it, and the Kachinsky steel is not needed.

Two years ago, it was the low turnout of young voters who ascended to the heights of the power of warlike brothers. At first, their party “Law and Justice” (Pis) unexpectedly won the parliamentary elections, and a few weeks later - and presidential. The brothers immediately declared war on their political opponents. In their conviction, since the fall of socialism, Poland has ruled rotten intellectuals, deaf to the problems of the poor in the population. The elderly Poles willingly believed in it.

In the state of the Kachinsky, law enforcement agencies, headed by the Minister of Justice Zbignev Zyob, and the coordinator of the activities of the special services Zbignev Wasserman, played an important role. Their actions were supported by the propaganda machine "Law and Justice". As in Russia, state television tirelessly demonstrated the actions of special forces and “masks-shows” with the capture of corrupt officials. The most popular daily newspaper Vygalch in Poland, led by the legendary dissident Adam Mikhnik, was accused of a communist origin. The President of the Polish National Bank of Leshek Baltsovich was reproached for playing into the hands of foreign capital. The only rebellious brothers of the State Institute - the Constitutional Court, which sometimes even dared to wrap the laws they wrote, fell under the blow.
