‘We want to replace imperfect shield with better, solid dam’

In a major rebuttal to Poland’s ruling right-wing nationalist Law and Justice (PiS) party purportedly “violating the rules of the [lower house Sejm of the] parliament”, the speaker of the upper house (Senat), Tomasz Grodzki has announced to bring a number of amendments to the laws of the so-called anti-crisis shield. “We want to replace the imperfect, leaky shield with a better, solid, real dam that will stop the spread of the [coronavirus] pandemic,” said Grodzki on March 30.
