Former Justice Minister Zbigniew Ziobro flew to Brussels on Thursday after almost a period in Budapest. The fresh survey shows that his Hungarian escapade is simply a problem for the PiS – as much as 59.7 percent of Poles think that Ziobra's departure is simply a visual burden on the party. It's a blow to the group erstwhile the D.A. wants to arrest politics for 3 months in connection with 26 counts of the Justice Fund.
Ziobro said in an interview with Poland24 that in Brussels he talks to politicians and media about the scale of violations in Poland by the Donald Tusk government. The Sejm waived his immunity in early November, and investigators accuse him of moving an organized crime group. This is about irregularities in the management of the Justice Fund.
Poles: This harms the Law and Justice
SW investigation for Onetu conducted on 2-3 December shows the scale of the problem. The question of whether Ziobry's departure to Hungary is an image burden for PiS, was answered by 59.7 percent of respondents. Only 19.9 percent were opposed, and 20.4 percent had no opinion. The survey included 828 adult Poles in the CAWI method.
The interior investigation of the PiS confirms this image. «We have investigation according to which a large part of our voters believe that Ziobro PiS simply harms”, admitted 1 of the party's politicians in a conversation with Virtual Poland. Another added: «No 1 wants to talk about Ziobrze. Everyone shakes, changes the subject».
PiS divided in defence of Ziobra
Ryszard Terlecki admitted straight in the Sejm that the situation of Ziebra “is of course drowning us”. Paweł Jabłoński in the Virtual Poland programme agreed: «On the issues of images, Marshal Terlecki is right». Jabłoński besides criticized Timing's request for detention – 2 days before Christmas.
Some of the leading PiS politicians, however, defend the erstwhile minister. The head of the club Mariusz Błaszczak told Virtual Poland that the charges against Ziobra are unfounded and constitute Tusk's revenge. Jacek Sasin described Ziobra as a free man who has the right to be where he wants to be.
Zbigniew Bogucki, head of Karol Nawrocki's law firm, stated in the Virtual Poland programme: «There is no breach of the discipline of public finances. There's no illegal activity there due to the fact that that bill allowed it. We are dealing with a political vendetta».
Kaczyński warned against the Fund
Wyborcza paper revealed on July 1, 2024 that Jarosław Kaczyński had already warned Ziobra against utilizing the Justice Fund in an election run in 2019. In a letter to the erstwhile minister, he made a request «to immediately prohibit Solidarna Polska candidates from utilizing the Justice Fund in the election campaign».
Advocate General Anna Adamiak stated that this letter “in fact was a announcement of possible crime”. Kaczyński, however, has underestimated the matter. He told journalists in the Sejm: «I wrote simply to inform against – let's say – discrimination against PiS Members».
Ziobro himself said in 1 interview: «I intend to defend myself, I intend to usage the word, I intend to usage the truth». He called the full case «pure revenge of Tusk for investigations revealing gigantic theft in his surroundings».
