"Slawomir Mentzen supposedly has simple solutions to problems of Polish society: lower taxes, throw out foreigners, quit climate protection, ban abortion. Sounds like inexpensive right-wing populism, but seemingly this maneuver works" writes Jenifer Girke on the German public tv portal ZDF.
Scandalous Statements
The author recalled that in the first circular of the presidential election, the Confederate candidate placed first among the youngest voters aged 18-29. In the parliamentary election, these voters mostly elected Donald Tusk. "What happened in a year and a half?" Girke asks.
Young Poles like scandal-bound controversial statements. As an example, the author gives Mentzen's reaction to climate warming questions – "I like it, I like how warm it is, I don't like it erstwhile it gets cold."
Girke pointed out the good consequence of Grzegorz Braun's anti-semite, as well as a typical of the left-wing stream – Adrian Zandberg.
Youth Frustration
The divisions among Poles besides share Polish youth. The binder between the right and the left is frustration. "Frustration is an crucial reason for specified and not another electoral behaviour of young people," said ZDF Joanna Stolarek, head of Boella Foundation in Poland. Young people are disappointed due to the fact that her demands from the parliamentary elections have not been met.
Tusk is about to retire
Tusk's triumph in voting on the vote of assurance will not change anything – ZDF believes. The consequence of the vote is indifferent to many Poles due to the fact that they believe that nothing will change for the better.
According to Girke, young Poles deficiency average organization characters to identify with. They can accept a 38-year-old Mentzen, a successful businessman in a well-tuned suit and a man who owes his career to himself than Donald Tusk, who "turns towards retirement."
After winning the vote, Tusk must regain assurance in his constituents, including young people. Otherwise, the fresh Polish government will form a Confederate and PiS along with another right-wing-radical groups.
