Morawiecki proposes a change of prime minister. He pointed to the candidate

A constructive vote of no confidence must involve proposing a candidate for prime minister. Such a candidate would have one task - firstly, to calm the situation and lead to fair elections in 2027 as soon as possible, but no later than the constitutional deadline - said Mateusz Morawiecki during Saturday's press conference at the Constitutional Tribunal.

The politician then pointed out that Rozwoju Plus proposes that Marek Jurek, former Speaker of the Sejm, should be the candidate for prime minister.

(He is) a person who is quite widely recognized as conciliatory, who can be recognized by broad political groups and who can calm down the situation and lead to a compromise, argued Morawiecki.

As he pointed out, Rozwoju Plus "insists that the best solution (...) is a constitutional reset." He added that in his opinion the government would not accept such a solution.

The former prime minister said that this is why a constructive vote of no confidence is needed and a new government that "will bring order in this respect, or at least lead to fairly conducted elections."

And after the elections, the election of the Constitutional Tribunal will be anew, concluded Morawiecki.

Dispute over the Constitutional Tribunal

The tension escalated after the announcement of a break in the activities of the President of the Constitutional Tribunal, Bogdan Święczkowski, and the Vice-President, Bartłomiej Sochański. The work of the Tribunal was managed by judge Anna Korwin-Piotrowska, elected by the current Sejm.

Demonstrations and police appeared in front of the Constitutional Tribunal's headquarters.

On the night from Friday to Saturday, President Nawrocki interrupted his flight to Senegal and returned to Poland. He went to the seat of the Constitutional Tribunal. After leaving the building, he announced urgent consultations, arguing that there had been a serious violation of the constitutional order.
