Murat Çolak wrote that Cracovia has unveiled a third jersey dedicated to St. John Paul II, whose life — as he emphasized — was connected with Krakow and the club. The design was inspired by Zakrzówek, where Karol Wojtyła worked physically in a quarry during his youth. Çolak also pointed to a commemorative plaque located underwater, installed by divers. As he explained, the blue of Zakrzówek inspired the color of the jersey. The back of the shirt features the inscription "Holy Father, your Cracovia remembers you," and the hidden motif of ones references the number retired for John Paul II. According to Çolak, the ones were visible after personalizing the jersey; this solution appeared on the Cracovia kit for the first time. Çolak described the project as an expression of the club's identity and respect for its history. He thanked the marketing team and the Official Cracovia Store for the realization, the photo session, and the video clip. #Cracovia #JanPawełII #Kraków (translated)

DWUKADENCYJNOŚĆ WŁODARZY - TAK, PARLAMENTARZYSTÓW - NIE Ograniczenie liczby kadencji to legislacyjna ingerencja w demokrację. Sens wprowadzenia tych ograniczeń wynika z przekonania, że zwykłe mechanizmy wyborcze nie działają dostateczne skutecznie. W odniesieniu do funkcji wójtów, burmistrzów i prezydentów miast mamy do czynienia z bezprecedensową kumulacją władzy. Każdy kto zdążył się zorientować jak działają polskie gminy i miasta, bez trudu zauważył, że społeczna kontrola nad działaniami lokalnego organu wykonawczego jest iluzoryczna. Że rady, które teoretycznie miały być nadrzędnym organem, w praktyce są reaktywne i bardzo często ubezwłasnowolnione. Taka nierównowaga władzy powoduje, że wójt, burmistrz, czy prezydent ma wszelkie możliwości manipulowania opinią publiczną. Ma uprzywilejowaną pozycję w przekazywaniu informacji. Może uzależniać od siebie znaczące grupy wyborców. Krótko mówiąc, proces wyborczy nie jest w pełni demokratyczny. Wymaga to więc legislacyjnej ingerencji, by zwiększyć szanse wpływu wyborców na zarządzanie wspólnymi sprawami. Takiego zakresu kumulacji władzy nie obserwujemy w żadnej ze struktur polskiego państwa. Mamy oczywiście do czynienia z wieloletnim okupowaniem tych samych pozycji przez różne osoby, co budzi irytację wielu obywateli. Nie ma jednak przesłanek do twierdzenia, że przepisy i procedury zaburzają tu wolność procesu wyborczego. Możliwości radnych, czy parlamentarzystów do manipulowania opinią publiczną są bardzo ograniczone, a w żaden sposób nie porównywalne do uprawnień „włodarzy” polskich miast i gmin. Wyborcy nie mogą się skarżyć, że winę, za nieakceptowany przez nich stan rzeczy ponosi ktoś inny, niż oni sami. Legislatorzy powinni zaś skupić się nad większą demokratyzacją procesu wyborczego, nad rzetelnością informacji, nad większą reprezentatywnością ordynacji wyborczej itp.

Cracovia announced that its third set of uniforms commemorated St. John Paul II, whom the club described as a special supporter of the Pasy. The light blue color was meant to reference the waters of Zakrzówek, where Karol Wojtyła worked in a quarry between 1940 and 1941. On the back of the shirts, there was an inscription that read "Holy Father, your Cracovia remembers you," and the number 1 on the personalization was meant to symbolize the Pope's reserved number. The club stated that the players were to wear these uniforms during the match against Legia Warsaw, the day after the celebration of October 16, Pope John Paul II Day, which commemorates the anniversary of Karol Wojtyła's election as pope. Cracovia emphasized that it would only wear jerseys dedicated to John Paul II on this occasion. https://t.co/HnwKNitomA #Cracovia #śwJanPawełII #kibice (translated)

Katarzyna Pełczyńska wrote that the statement, which was supposed to sound like a threat, she took as encouragement. She pointed out that if the party leaders from both sides of the dispute, as well as Mr. Patelnia, Mr. Mejza, and Matecki, were to leave the Parliament, the situation would be interesting. Pełczyńska added that the limitation to two terms in democracies usually pertains to directly elected offices, such as the country's president, village head, mayor, or city president. In her opinion, pathological systems form more quickly around such concentrated power. She believed that an executive power chosen collegially and collegiate bodies, such as the Parliament and councils, are more resistant to this because decisions are made by many people, and their composition changes from term to term. She emphasized that the system of Polish local government requires reflection and perhaps changes, such as strengthening the position of councilors. However, she opposed the removal of the term limit for presidents and mayors on the principle of "everyone or no one." As she wrote, according to such logic, one would also have to abolish the term limit for the President of Poland, which—she noted—nobody wants in Poland. She added that the effects of such a solution can be observed with Poland's eastern neighbors. #demokracja #polityka #władza (translated)
