Despite party leadership\u2019s ultimatum, members of the &#8220;Rozw\u00f3j Plus&#8221; group, including MPs \u0141ukasz Kmita and Krzysztof Szczucki, insist they will not dissolve their organization or sign declarations of withdrawal.<\/p>\n<p>While reports suggest that Jaros\u0142aw Kaczy\u0144ski may consider suspending dissenting members to avoid an immediate total fracture, sources indicate that the atmosphere has soured significantly. Party officials have begun searching for &#8220;dirt&#8221; on internal rivals, with reports of personal smears and investigations into private family matters appearing in internal communications.<\/p>\n<h4>Morawiecki\u2019s Defense of the Association<\/h4>\n<p>Former Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki issued a ten-minute video statement maintaining that his association was created to protect the legacy of his government and broaden the party&#8217;s support base. He stressed that PiS must not become an insular organization and reaffirmed his commitment to staying within the party ranks.<\/p>\n<p>Despite public posturing, the divide remains stark. Party spokesperson Rafa\u0142 Bochenek has characterized the association\u2019s activities as destructive to party unity and resource management. While some back-channel discussions regarding the ultimatum are reportedly occurring, no direct breakthrough has been reached between Kaczy\u0144ski and Morawiecki.<\/p>\n<h4>Calculating the Allegiances<\/h4>\n<p>Political analysts estimate that Morawiecki currently commands between 20 and 25 core allies within the parliamentary club. The party leadership is closely monitoring the stance of &#8220;wavering&#8221; figures, most notably Daniel Obajtek, as the threat of a potential domino effect looms over the leadership&#8217;s decision-making process.<\/p>\n<p>Jaros\u0142aw Kaczy\u0144ski has publicly called for a &#8220;breath of fresh air,&#8221; reminding his colleagues that the political opposition remains their primary adversary. However, party insiders cited by Onet suggest that emotions have reached a point where a formal split may now be inevitable within the coming months.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the deadline for party members to abandon the &#8220;Rozw\u00f3j Plus&#8221; association nears, tensions within Law and Justice (PiS) have escalated into mutual accusations and the aggressive digging for compromising information.
