Przemysław Gosiewski has been officially chosen for vice-president of L&J (pl.:PiS). According to PAP, he's got an overwhelming dominance - only few members of Political Council were opposed.
In a parliamentary club 'Law and Justice' Gosiewski has been replaced by former minister of regional development, dr. Grażyna Gęsicka. Now, Gosiewski has to supervise programmatic works in a National Work Team.
Commentary: A good change
Jarosław Kaczyński's decision of replacing a president of the club L&J is a part of L&J and president palace actions aiming at fixing an image of brothers Kaczynski. Gosiewski, since long ago, hasn't been present in media and even journalists has recently been criticizing his appearances. A series of negative association has built up over Gosiewski: a case of train station in Włoszczowa, a row over alimony with Dorn or latest uncertainties related with participation of Gosiewski in works on 'gambling' law.
L&J, by putting forward Gęsicka, shows it's substantial and competent face. Gęsicka appears to be a matter-of-fact man, not being red-hot nor outworn.
Spin-doctors of L&J has made a good work. But will voters buy it?
