“Gazeta Wyborcza” wrote on Thursday that the Polish People’s Party and Poland 2050 “interrupted talks about a coalition”. The reports of the daily were denied by representatives of these parties. They also added that there will be another round of talks on Tuesday.
Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamyszpresident of PSL i Simon Holowniathe leader of Poland 2050 announced the start of a joint initiative in January. It would lead to running from a joint list in the parliamentary elections.
The two parties have created a “joint list of issues” to deal with after the election. Kosiniak-Kamysz and Hołownia presented it at joint conferences and meetings.
As reported by “Gazeta Wyborcza”, “at that time, in the privacy of offices, talks began about the arrangement of coalition lists”. We read that “PSL deputy marshal Piotr Zgorzelski” and “number two in Poland 2050 – Michał Kobosko” are responsible for the work of the negotiating team.
According to information from “Election”, however, talks about the coalition have been interrupted. This would result from the conflict around the “ones” on the electoral lists. According to the daily, “Poland 2050 initially requested all the ones on the common list”, but this idea “does not suit the activists PSL” who ” want to share in partnership: half of the ones for them, half for people from Hołownia “.
