From Sky News today:

An Ipsos exit poll suggested the opposition, together as a coalition, has likely won 248 seats in the 460-seat lower house of parliament, the Sejm, while Law and Justice appears to have 198 seats.

In order for a government to pass laws, it needs at least 231 seats.

Three opposition parties, Civic Coalition, Third Way and the New Left, ran on separate tickets but with the same promises of seeking to oust Law and Justice and restore good ties with the European Union.

Mr Tusk, a former prime minister and European Council president, told his supporters on Sunday night: “I am the happiest man on earth. Democracy has won. Poland has won.”

While by no means Scotland’s only friend in Europe, Tusk was one of the first and the most explicit supporters of our quick re-entry. See this from 2020:

Donald Tusk, the former president of the European council, has said there would be widespread enthusiasm in the EU if Scotland applied to rejoin after independence.

In remarks that will boost Nicola Sturgeon’s campaign for a second referendum, Tusk told the BBC he had great sympathy with the desire of many Scots to rejoin the EU after Brexit.

“I want to stop myself from saying something too blunt. Sometimes I feel I am Scots. I’m very Scottish now, especially after Brexit,” he told BBC One’s The Andrew Marr Show.

“Emotionally, I have no doubt everyone would be enthusiastic here, in Brussels and more widely in Europe, but still we have treaties and formalities. But if you ask me about our emotions, there’s a genuine feeling. You will witness only, I think, empathy.”

Scotland voted 62% in favour of remaining in the EU in the 2016 Brexit referendum, and in every election since has shown more than 70% support to parties that backed a second EU referendum or scrapping Brexit.

I had early if confused experience of the Poles in Scotland.

Around 1960, aged 8/9, my dad took me to a barber he called ‘Alex the pole’, I thought.

He had one of the those red and white poles outside so, at that age I thought that’s why he’s called ‘Alex the pole’. I only found out years later.

Five or six years later again, trying to grow my first sideburns, I told Alex to leave them. He zipped them off straightaway saying ‘your dad no like these.’ Didn’t go back.
