As much as 74 percent of Poles, by 8 percentage points more than in March, badly assess the course of affairs in the country, while the 21 percent is of the opposite opinion, according to the data published in the April report by Kantar.

Most Poles (74 percent) are also pessimistic about the state of the economy in the country and believe that the economy is in crisis. According to 40 percent of respondents, it is a slight crisis, and 34 percent is convinced of a deep crisis. 21 percent of respondents are convinced that the economy is developing and 5 percent of the respondents have no opinion on this subject.

One-third of the respondents believe that the material conditions in the country will not change in the next three years. 17 percent believe that there will be an improvement – for most of them a slight, and only for 2 percent of Poles significantly. 45 percent of Poles, on the other hand, indicate a significant deterioration of material conditions in Poland.

42 percent of Poles believe that it is possible to find a job in our country without major problems, 38 percent believe that not necessarily the way one would like. 46 percent of Poles are pessimistic about the labor market.

According to the expert from Kantar, Anna Trząsalska, negative feelings regarding the assessment of the course of affairs in the country, the state of the economy, and living conditions were felt mainly by thirty-year-olds and residents of the largest cities. In her opinion, such an effect could have been brought about by the introduction of a lockdown, announced on March 25, during which, for example, shopping malls or large-format stores were closed again. At the beginning of April, there were also problems with registration for vaccinations, which could give Poles the feeling that the situation is not fully under control. Thirty-year-olds, not yet admitted to vaccination registration, may have cause for frustration, as may residents of the largest cities, where the queues for vaccination are the longest.
