Poland: Thousands protest over new law – BBC News
Thousands of people have been taking part in an anti-government rally in Poland’s capital Warsaw.
They were protesting against a new law that critics say could be used to target opposition politicians in an election year.
There is due to be an election in Poland in October or November 2023.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

Tusk is a really bad guy. He proved it, when he was a primie minister in 2007-2014. He sold almost everything and send police to beat his rivals.

Old people ruined the UK by voting for Brexit. Now they will destroy a very promising country, apoland voting for PiS. The right to vote should be removed at retirement age. You have no skin inthe game because you will soon be dead.

The exact same thing is happening in America and as I watch it I am in shock. I never thought we would see these days like this but here they are in our lifetime like Jesus Christ said there’s nothing new under the sun as in the days of Noah, so shall the last days be more evil.
My Polish brothers and sisters I love you.
My great great grandmother if she were alive right now, would be so fiercely, angry at all! My great, great grandmother was Maria Konipnicka.
I carry so many of her traits. My papa told me when I was younger, to never forget who we are our blood to know our history, and never forget it. But we are strong. So we are!
