Public sentiment toward Poland’s government has reached a new low, according to a recent survey, marking the weakest support since Prime Minister Donald Tusk came to power. The survey highlighted that 50% of respondents believe the country is on the wrong track, while only 28% feel it is moving in the right direction. This shows a decline in positive assessments by three percentage points and an increase in negative views by two points since June.
The survey also revealed that political dissatisfaction is at its highest since the current administration began its term, with 51% of respondents describing the political situation as poor. Only 11% hold a positive view of the political climate, reflecting growing discontent.
Economic perceptions have also taken a hit. While 34% of those surveyed still view the economy positively, compared to 30% who have a negative outlook, optimism has waned compared to the previous month. Additionally, most respondents do not expect significant economic improvements in the coming year, expressing heightened concerns over both political and economic futures.
Despite the overall dip in confidence, a significant portion of the population remains content with their personal circumstances. About 63% reported satisfaction with their family’s standard of living, and 64% rated their household’s financial situation as good. However, these figures have also seen a decline since June.
In summary, the survey indicates a widespread deterioration in public sentiment across major areas, particularly in politics and expectations for future living standards, as recorded in July.
