Positions edit

The party was opposed to privatisation of state assets resulting from the post-communist reforms of the 1990s and supported increased state expenditure. It was opposed to Polish involvement in the European Union and supported increased cooperation with Poland's eastern neighbours, free education and health care, free (state funded) contraception and abortions, recognition of same-sex civil unions, the withdrawal of Polish troops from Iraq, the elimination of conscription and the introduction of a professional military, and the introduction of a 35-hour working week. It opposed the introduction of a flat tax and the introduction of capital punishment. The PPP also advocated a withdrawal from the concordat between the Polish state and the Catholic Church.

History edit

The Party's candidate in the 2005 Polish presidential election, Daniel Podrzycki, died in a car accident on September 24, 2005, one day prior to the parliamentary elections. The party achieved 91,266 votes or 0.77% in the 2005 elections,[1] In the 2007 parliamentary elections the party won 0.99% of the popular vote and no seats in the Sejm and the Senate of Poland.

On 14 September 2015, the PPP joined the United Left (ZL) electoral alliance which was formed as a response for the poor performance of the Polish Left[2] in the 2015 presidential election. The alliance received 7.6% of the vote in the 2015 parliamentary election below the 8% electoral threshold leaving it with no parliamentary representation.
