Po wypowiedzi J. Kaczynskiego o brytyjskim systemie wyborczym

 W czasie niedawnego spotkania z blogerami salonu24, odpowiadajac na jedno z pytan, Jaroslaw Kaczynski opisal krotko brytyjski system wyborczy. W opisie tym powolal sie na Daniela Kawczynskiego, czlonka  Izby Gmin, posla okregu Shrewsbury w hrabstwie Shropshire. Zbulwersowany ta calkowicie niezgodna z rzeczywistoscia wypowiedza Jaroslawa Kaczynskiego, napisalem do Daniela Kawczynskiego email. Email jest dlugi, przytaczam tu jego najwazniejszy fragment.

 -------------------------------------

(…) Mr Kaczynski had this to say about the FPTP system in Britain:

 “Their system is as follows. First you have to be accommodated by some influential patron. Then, if you work well and serve him well, you get a bad constituency, where that party does not win. And that’s a test whether you can fight. Sometimes you win but that is rare, normally you lose. If you carry on working well you get a good constituency. This is nothing to do with were you live. Hundreds of British MPs walked that path and I was told about it in detail by the first Pole, who is in the House Commons, a Pole who speaks good Polish and holds the record of being the tallest MP in the history of the House of Commons (…) His path is entirely typical. “

 He clearly was referring to you, Daniel and I just refuse to believe that you, or for that matter, any British politician, could really have told Mr Jaroslaw Kaczynski these things. I cannot imagine that anyone from this country could really have implied to him that the intelligence of the British voter is so low that he or she would vote for anyone who is sent down to their constituency by a party leader in Westminster. I also do not believe that you would describe your own parliamentary career to Mr Jaroslaw Kaczynski in these terms.

 This is a very serious matter, as all constitutional matters are, especially as Mr Kaczynski’s appearances have great impact on the Polish public opinion. 

 It is important to realise what Mr J. Kaczynski and other prominent Polish political leaders are defending and what is at stake here.  There is a fundamental difference between the voting rights in Poland and those in Britain . Mr Kaczynski in his attack on the British electoral system did not mention that difference. Everyone in Britain has the right to stand in elections, general, local or European, and this right is easy to exercise. Not so in Poland, where the right to stand is limited to a small group, literally a few thousand. In Poland one is not allowed to register one’s name on a ballot paper, no matter how many signatures they collect or how much deposit they are willing to pay. To become an MP, one has to be nominated by the leader of a large and a very rich party, and placed on a “winning” position on a party list. Some party leaders, such as Andrzej Lepper in Poland, or Julia Timoszenko in the Ukraine, have been known to publicly advertise and sell “winning” positions on the electoral lists they control. (…)

 Dalej pisalem krotko o Ruchu JOW i o tym, ze moim zdaniem glowna przyczyna biedy w Polsce i wywolanej nia masowej, kilkumilionowej migracji Polakow na Wyspy Brytyjskie i do Irlandii sa niszczace gospodarke rzady oligarchiczne. Rzady te charakteryzuja sie ograniczaniem prawa do swobodnej, demokratycznej reprezentacji,  tlumieniem mechanizmow obywatelskiej kontroli i nie majacym precedensu w dotychczasowej historii Polski rozrostem administracji.

 Napisalem, iz wiem o tym, ze Daniel Kawczynski upominal Ambasade RP w Londynie o zwiekszenie ilosci pracownikow i o adekwatna do rozmiarow migracji pomoc, ktora nalezy objac masy zyjacych tutaj w skrajnej biedzie Polakow. Sugerowalem, ze moze wlasciwsza metoda byloby wsparcie tych rzesz Polakow w Polsce, ktorzy z tym stanem rzeczy walcza miedzy innymi poprzez zastapienie degradujacego polska cywilizacje systemu list partyjnych i zastapienie go prawdziwie wolnymi wyborami w jednomandatowych okregach wyborczych, a wiec systemem, ktory tak dobrze sluzy Wielkiej Brytanii.
