Kaczyński blames Tusk for Brexit

Jarosław Kaczyński, the chairman of the ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party, has blamed the President of the European Council and former Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk for the UK's decision to leave the European Union. "A particularly dark role was played by Donald Tusk, who conducted negotiations with the British and in fact contributed to them getting nothing," Kaczyński told journalists on Monday. "Hence, he is directly responsible for Brexit and should simply disappear from European politics, but this concerns the whole of European Commission in its present composition." Kaczynski also voiced hope that Britain might hold a second referendum and choose to remain in the European Union after all.
