Poland's far-right party splits: Former PM Morawiecki expelled from Law and Justice

The Polish far-right party Law and Justice (PiS) has experienced a significant internal split, with former Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki expelled along with 30 other members by PiS president Jarosław Kaczyński. The move follows accusations that Morawiecki attempted to establish a new political party through his association, which Kaczyński views as a betrayal of the party’s core principles. Morawiecki, known for his more moderate and reformist stance within PiS, had previously been elected president of the European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) group, aiming to modernize the party and adopt a more conciliatory approach. This division could weaken PiS’s influence in European politics, particularly within the ECR group, where PiS holds 20 out of 84 seats. Uncertainty remains over whether some of these members will follow Morawiecki into his next political endeavor.
