Following the resignation of Prime Minister Marcinkiewicz, Kaczynski has appointed his brother as P.M (meaning that Poland is the only country in the world with identical twins as President and P.M)... and there are reports that three opposition parties are going to form an a sort of anti-Kaczynski alliance.
Don't know which parties these are, although by the sound of it one is SLD.

Those opposition parties would include:

Civic Platform which is a market liberal party.
Democratic Left Alliance which is ex-communist.
Polish Peasant Party which is a left-wing agrarian populist party.

I'm starting to think that Poland may just be completely screwed.

Prime Minister Kaczynski has fired Lepper, meaning that the coalition is over. Unless Kaczynski can cobble together a new coalition in the next few days, fresh elections this autumn seem likely.

Hopefully Civic Platform takes the lead they seem like as sensible a lot as Poland can put out.
