The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

Prime Minister Donald Tusk has made good on his promise to mend ties with the EU and bring Poland back into the European mainstream. His right-wing predecessors frequently undermined the EU's democratic values, putting the country at odds with the European Commission. Under a liberal government, Poland is pushing towards a more independent judiciary and reaping the economic rewards of aligning with the EU.

Guardian

Establishment-critical narrative

The EU undermined one of Europe's only conservative regimes by trying to punish the Law and Justice party for prioritizing Poland first. The EU withheld more than €100B in funding from Poland to punish the government and bully the country into electing a pro-EU liberal. Now, the European Commission is rewarding its puppet ruler. The EU wants ultimate control over its member states, and it punished Poland for defecting from the bloc's far-left globalist agenda.
