Polish Deputy Speaker Piotr Zgorzelski has strongly condemned statements made by fellow MP Janusz Kowalski, accusing him and Education Minister Przemysław Czarnek of initiating racial segregation. Zgorzelski made the remarks during an interview on RMF FM radio, describing Kowalski’s recent speech in the Sejm as hitting a “low point.” He specifically used the phrase "brown scum" in reference to Kowalski and Czarnek’s alleged actions. The accusations center around claims that the pair are promoting policies that lead to racial discrimination within Poland. Kowalski has not yet publicly responded to Zgorzelski’s criticism. The controversy highlights growing political tensions within the Polish parliament and raises concerns about the rhetoric being employed by prominent politicians. The incident is likely to fuel further debate regarding social and political divisions in the country.
