LPR using NBP candidate as leverage?
It seems that LPR is trying to win concessions from its coalition partner Law and Justice (PiS) for the support of the presidential candidate Slawomir Skrzypek. LPR leader and Education Minister Roman Giertych demanded an additional zl.500 million for teacher pay rises and received it. However, shortly afterwards Giertych declared that this will not have an impact on LPR voting. According to Gazeta Wyborcza, LPR wants more and is demanding additional positions in the government and in the central bank. (Gazeta Wyborcza, pp. 1, 23) E.B.
