Rokita pulls no punches as he floors Lepper in animated debate

Rokita showered Lepper with issues the latter would much rather have avoided discussing, such as the near-lynching that happened at the beginning of Lepper's political career, the staggering incomes of his fellow party-men and victim statements accusing Lepper of embezzlement. Rokita also brought up the fact that Lepper has repeatedly dropped flagship protests under unclear circumstances, as well as his unauthorized usage of the title Senator Andrzej Lepper PhD. The Self-defense leader tried to counter the attacks and accused the 3/4 Initiative led by Rokita of violent disruptions during Aleksander Kwasniewski's presidential campaign. However, a poll of Radio Zet listeners showed Rokita to have won the debate. (Rzeczpospolita, p A6) M.G.
