I have made some passing comments about the current government in Poland as led by the Law and Justice Party (for example, here). In today’s CSM there are two stories on Poland, including a relatively brief one which notes the tension with the EU and the current upsurge in nationalism in Polish politics: Polish leaders at odds with EU mainstream.
There is also a piece on the twins who currently occupy the top two executives posts in the land: Poland takes conservative turn under twin leaders, with some discussion of pending local elections.
Let me know over at Pros and Cons if you want me to get the Czech view on these fellows. Last I checked, many Czechs were envious, and that whole death penalty thing is getting ever more popular with European electorates. One wonders how long Brussels can hold out.
