    They could have dragged immigration into this ad which would make some sense (to their voters) but somehow decided to accuse Germany of dictating retirement age in Poland.

    To give you an idea if there’s anyone who could treat this seriously I’ll bring up my recent experience. I was visiting my girlfriends family in a very rural, very eastern part of Poland couple of weeks ago. Her aunt had to steer conversation into politics somehow.

    She decided to do that by telling us that her son, who’s been living in Germany for the past 15 years, told her that he and other polish immigrants in Germany all agree that Donald Tusk is a volksdeutsch. The irony was entirely lost on her. These people will eat this up and ask for seconds.

      Isn’t Morawiecki also of (distant) German descent? Even JKMs surname Mikke used to be Mücke at some point in history. Heck, when you live as close as we do, neighbours will fall in love regularly…
