Law and Justice loses more ground to Civic Platform
Current support for PO stands at 53 percent and PiS - 27 percent. If the elections were held today, PO would still be able to gain enough votes to fully rule on its own, but if the negative trend persists it should re-think its strategy towards the most pressing issues at the moment.
The first issue is related to the global financial crisis, which is disturbing for Poles. The government could easily lose its position as a "guard of our wallets" on behalf of the President who requested a meeting of the Cabinet Council.
Another issue relates to the football association PZPN with the majority of Poles accepting the decision by Sports Minister Mirosław Drzewiecki to suspend the current management of the organization, but at the same time the situation could really change if the Polish national team was not able to participate in international football events.
The final issue is related to the Polish shipyards and if the proposed restructuring programs are rejected, PO might be in a difficult position to defend itself.
In related news, another poll showed that the trust towards PO is growing and within the last two years the share of the public considering it as the most trustworthy party increased from 14 percent to 29 percent, while 18 percent believe this is true for PiS. "Lack of a strong ideological face is the strength of PO, as it provides the party with strong social support," said political expert Marek Migalski.
