Public mood goes up in July - CBOS

Public sentiment towards Poland's political direction, economic situation and the nearest future of the country slightly improved in July, a survey by pollster CBOS revealed. The number of Poles who believe that country's current direction is wrong fell by 4 points and stood at 43 percent, while the amount of those who see it positively grew by 4 percent and reached 37 percent. Also, the majority of Polish citizens are satisfied with the economy (31 percent), whereas only 21 percent assess it as bad, and 41 percent as average. Though 24 percent of Poles are still pessimistic about any improvements in the country within a year, 25 percent convinced of the positive changes in Poland. The poll was conducted as face-to-face interviews (983 Poles aged over 18) along with computer aided CAPI on June 30 - July 7.
