Unionist's volatile reception at launch of Krzaklewski's Presidential campaign
Marian Krzaklewski's presidential campaign began in his hometown of
Kolbuszowa on Sunday. The meeting was interrupted by a group of trade
unionists from splinter-group Sierpien 80, which believes that AWS
(Solidarity Electoral Action), led by Krzaklewski, has betrayed the
Solidarity ethos. He was called a "Brussel's dog," his effigy was burnt, and
eggs were thrown. Krzaklewski did not make any promises at the meeting, but
called the forthcoming election "a battle for Poland." (Rzeczpospolita, page
