Poland’s main rightwing opposition splits after loyalty pledge ultimatum

Poland's ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party has experienced a significant split following a loyalty pledge ultimatum issued by party leader Jarosław Kaczyński. Former Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki and his allies reportedly felt forced out due to internal disagreements over the party's policy direction ahead of the 2027 parliamentary elections. Kaczyński claimed that dozens of lawmakers effectively resigned after refusing to sign a loyalty oath pledging non-cooperation with other political groups. The rebels insist they do not wish to leave the party but may face formal expulsion. This division comes as PiS faces challenges from emerging right-wing factions and struggles to maintain dominance in the Polish political landscape.

Bias read (Center): The article presents the conflict within PiS as a factual development, detailing both sides' positions without overtly favoring either Kaczyński or Morawiecki. While the framing emphasizes the internal divisions and potential consequences for the party's future, it does not take a clear ideological侧
