Whoever is the candidate Donald Tusk – I'll be happy to face him. I really am convinced that Poland needs an independent candidate, independent of the duopoly. Stabilizing the situation in Poland. One who will be able to listen to citizens in freedom, and not to his superior – said Hołownia.

Tension during the meeting with Hołownia. “Shall we shake hands or not?”
During the meeting, there was an exchange of words between Hołownia and two dissatisfied residents. They accused Hołownia that “the December 13 coalition is not worried about Poland.” – Everything is sold, large companies are going bankrupt – they said. They also returned to the spring farmers' protest, accusing the Speaker of the Sejm of passivity and the police of provocations and beating farmers.
Hołownia tried to talk to the men, exchange arguments, asked about specifics regarding the failing companies, and finally wanted to shake their hands because – as he said – “he thinks they wish Poland well.”
– Shall we shake hands or not? My last question – Hołownia asked them. However, the men refused.
– Thank you very much. I did what I could.
