That was my impression as well.
Which means I do not see enough reason for this protest.
Poland's political corruption has been growing for quite some time. They out-shine some of the southern US states sometimes which is really saying something.
@Peter1986C Yea, even in my country people are so enraged, like it's happening tomorrow. They keep saying that electric cars stand no chance in replacing combustion ones, that there is no infrastructure and so on, so forth. They act like they'd be forced to go on foot wherever they need.
It's not like this is something urgent. We can safely delay it until 2080 at least. Think of the poor car manufacturers!
But seriously, we should ideally transition away from cars by then.
