PSL smells blood as PiS looks for one more partner

The trouble is, they still need 20 more votes to gain a majority in Parliament. One of PiS' leader says: "There are three equally probable options - we will be accompanied by the Peasants' Party (PSL) or the League of Polish Families (LPR) with independent deputies or finally we will fail to build a majority, and therefore end up holding an election in autumn." According to PiS, PSL is split over the issue. Ryszard Czarnecki (Self-defense) comments: "PSL smells blood and is going to demand more." According to him, a vote of confidence for the current Minister of Agriculture will be the climax of negotiations for PSL. Without its support, Agriculture Minister Krzysztof Jurgiel will be dismissed. In this big web of questions and guesses, one thing seems to be clear - Jaroslaw Kaczynski will not become Prime Minister, due to a recent drop in his popularity. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 5) J.L.
