Hołownia about penalties for PiS deputies: I identify with this decision
I identify with the decision of the Presidium of the Sejm regarding the punishment of PiS MPs; I believe that the Sejm has the right to discuss, but certain boundaries cannot be crossed – emphasized on Friday the Marshal of the Sejm, the third way candidate for president Szymon Hołownia. He called Wednesday's quarrels between MPs an embarrassing and embarrassing spectacle.
Hołownia emphasized that the Sejm has the right to discuss, but in the Sejm you cannot cross certain borders. “The boundaries not only of your own ridicule, but also the limits of emotions, which can lead to the fact that the place where we make the most important decisions, sometimes about the life of people, will turn into a circus, stage or talent show” – he noted. He added that he “did for 12 years” in the talent show. “I know what emotions are on the stage and I haven't changed my job to now have guests of a similar habit in the Sejm of the Republic of Poland, or tolerate such behavior,” he said.
The marshal expressed the hope that they would give some people to think. “I also hope that such scenes will not happen again,” Hołownia emphasized. In his opinion, the shouting of the words “murderer” or sabotaging of the Sejm meeting must come across a sharp reaction.
Hołownia, who has been on vacation in connection with the election campaign from March 18, added that Deputy Marshal Zgorzelski called him the day before and presented the draft decision of the Presidium of the Sejm regarding penalties for MPs. “Personally, I identify with this decision and yesterday I also gave Marshal Zgorzelski,” he noted.
He called Wednesday's quarrels between politicians “embarrassing and embarrassing spectacle.” “I do not find myself in such a policy that is completely idle and consists in the fact that one on one side will come out, offends that, that will come out. And so they will cover the heads of Poles with sticks in cameras to have a nice roll on social media as the Walczak who went and fought,” said Hołownia. As he noted, this applies to PiS politicians and the Civic Platform.
“I have been sitting in the Sejm for 15 months. How many times have I seen speeches, which only consisted – also from the PO side – in the fact that you went out and stretched a stick on the cage, so that the howling could be heard, because as the old saying of Polish polarization says:” you can hear howling? ” – noted the marshal.
In his opinion, this only serves to “weaken the Polish state.” “Where two are fighting, the third one uses. And today the third one waits in the queue to use it. So there is no reason to play the role of a useful Mentzen idiot or even Russians, you only need to lower this tone of discussion and lead to the fact that we are not played,” said Hołownia.
When asked by journalists whether in his opinion Jarosław Kaczyński should apologize to Roman Giertych for calling him a killer, he replied that MPs should do it with themselves. “They are finally a family, from what Mr Giertych said,” he noted.
On Wednesday, MP KO, standing on the parliamentary rostrum, said to the PiS president “Jarek Sitajj, calm down”, to which Kaczyński replied “I am not with you by name, a bang.” “I am not with you, Mr. Kaczyński by name, only genealogy researchers showed that I am a uncle of Mr. Kaczyński, far -minded. Tell me uncle, Jarek,” said Giertych.
Szymon Hołownia as part of the presidential campaign in the coming days will visit, among others Kościerzyna, Żukowo, Rumia, Gdynia and Starogard Gdański. (PAP)
