PiS rallies its faithful to continue building the 4th Republic
The event opened with the screening a short movie about PiS' achievements in office. The key moment was a speech delivered by Prime Minister Jaroslaw Kaczynski, followed by ones from various Ministers. All of them raved on about success in areas such as taxes, the economy, and finances. The PM said that the government will turn its attention to finding favorable policies for entrepreneurs. He also announced changes in taxes and started again talking about fulfilling his promise of building three million flats. He added that cleaning state posts of former secret service agents will be continued through bills which will soon be presented to Parliament. Kaczynski's speech was applauded by 5,000 party members. The opposition, as expected, is skeptical. Wojciech Olejniczak from the Social Democratic Left Alliance (SLD) said that PiS has not accomplished anything in health care, economy or in social policy.
