Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:36:00 GMT

WARSAW — Polish opposition parties are hammering the government over reports that the country’s consulates may have issued hundreds of thousands of temporary work visas in return for bribes.That’s a big potential problem for the ruling nationalist Law and Justice (PiS) party ahead of the October 15 general election. The party has always pushed an anti-immigrant message — especially for people from Muslim countries — and has touted the construction of a fence along the border with Belarus to prevent illegal migration as one of its signature achievements.That record is now under attack.“Do you know who in Europe brings in the most Muslim immigrants? The government that frightens with them. The PiS government,” Donald Tusk, the leader of the opposition Civic Coalition party, posted on social media. Despite the reports, PiS is still ahead in POLITICO’s Poll of Polls, with 38 percent support compared to 31 percent for the Civic Coalition.The government is s...

But McDonald, who served as top civil servant of the office from 2015 to 2020, said he felt ministers likely knew his vote anyway, so decided “to embrace it.”He also wanted to “convey a message to a group of people, most of whom I felt had voted to remain in the EU, that their personal feelings were...
