A recent survey in Poland suggests that most Poles feel their lives were better under the conservative rule of the Law and Justice (PiS) party.
The poll, conducted by the Pollster Institute for Super Express, revealed that 38% of respondents believe they had it easier under Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki. In comparison, 33% feel the economic situation is similar under the current government led by Donald Tusk, while only 18% think their lives have improved since the PiS era.
Krzysztof Brejza, a European Parliament member from the Civic Coalition (KO), discussed the survey on Polsat News. He acknowledged the pain of high inflation during the PiS rule but pointed to Poland’s record-low unemployment and positive economic forecasts under Tusk’s leadership. He predicted that Poles would feel the improvements in a few months.
Brejza also discussed the upcoming presidential race, highlighting strong support for KO candidate Rafał Trzaskowski, whom he described as a trustworthy, competent leader who isn’t involved in scandals.
On the topic of economic growth, Brejza addressed Google’s recent announcement to invest $5 million in digital training during a press conference with Tusk. He downplayed the figure, saying it was just a small part of a much larger project aimed at boosting Poland’s innovation and GDP by up to 8%, with an eventual investment worth billions.
