Tymiński is back
His manifesto unexpectedly matches the one of Andrzej Lepper's Self Defense and is directed to the same poorly educated rural electorate. Among the key points in Tymiński's program are the liquidation of the present political scene, amnesty for perpetrators who committed crimes during the past 15 years, and a readiness to work with all parties. Tymiński was labeled "the man from nowhere" in 1990 when he appeared on the political scene, managed to knock out heavyweight rivals and battled through to the second round of the presidential election in a run off against Lech Wałęsa.
