Fury from scorned politician's wife

She criticized party leader Donald Tusk for his intention to cooperate with left-wing parties. "I wish Tusk happiness in cooperation with Kwasniewski, but I will not take part in it," declared Nelly Rokita. "In my opinion there is not enough discussion in the party. It was to be a party for everyone but it has completely turned away from voters in rural areas," she added. The direct reason for her decision was the replacement of her husband at the head of PO's shadow cabinet by PO politician Bronislaw Komorowski. "It is a scandal. It was done behind Jan Rokita's back while he should have been the first to know about it," stated Nelly Rokita. She also suggested that Donald Tusk has been trying to remove her husband from the party for a long time. PO's leaders refused to comment on Nelly Rokita's statements. (Rzeczpospolita, p.
