I don't like objectifying people, so I'll say that he's subjectively a flawed FF Smiley

There is much talk about him having said anti-Semitic things, but I didn't manage to find any evidence for that. He doesn't appear to be the "classic Polish right-wing anti-Semite" type, because his conservatism is not clerical, it's more bourgeois. He also worked together with Milton Friedman. I can't rule it out, though, and if he really did that, it would definitely influence my opinion of him in a negative way.

For now, I really don't like his statements on women and gay people, but he's quite original and I like the way he advocates classical liberal positions on the economy and on the scope of the state, clearly applying the right principles (and there are very few prominent European politicians who do so) - so that's why I consider him a flawed FF, at least until I have more information on his alleged anti-Semitism.
