Freedom Union’s Jacek Kuron returns to politics battling unemployment

Former Minister of Labor Jacek Kuron is back in politics. In order to suppress unemployment, his political party, the Freedom Union (UW), has urged, among other things, greater flexibility of the Labor Code, a law on crafts, simplification of the tax system and amendments to the law on trade unions. Kuron, one of the most trustworthy Polish politicians, resigned from political activity in this field some time ago, but has decided to reenter the fray back because of the 15% unemployment level, national political chaos, and probably also because of UW’s recent slide in public opinion polls.
