Gowin and Ziobro join forces, Kaczyński calls for unity

Politicians Jarosław Gowin and Zbigniew Ziobro, leaders of the Poland Together and Solidarna Polska parties, have announced the launch of their mutual parliamentary caucus, Sprawiedliwa Polska (“Fair Poland”). The caucus will include at least 15 Mps, they said on Friday. Gowin will be the head of the group. Neither Gowin, nor Ziobro were present at a convention organized by the biggest opposition party, Law and Justice (PiS) on Saturday. The both met PiS leader, Jarosław Kaczyński, last week to discuss cooperation, but without further outcome. Some politicians from smaller right-wing parties did take part in the Saturday gathering. Speaking at the convention, Kaczyński called for unity on the right. “Let us unite and march forward, to victory,” he said. “A strong government, unity and discipline is what we need.”
