    The coalition is a mix of left (Lewica), center (Donald Tusk’s KO) and center-right (Polska 2050, PSL).

    KO generally voted for the bill, it was PSL who voted overwhelmingly against it, which, together with PIS, made it so that the bill didn’t pass.

    There’s good reasons to hate Tusk, and I share a lot of them, but this one isn’t it. With the cards he was dealt, there wasn’t much he could’ve done.
