The Animal Party has been established. Its founders are linked to a controversial organization

A new political party in Poland, the Animal Party, aims to elevate animal rights activism to a political level. Founded by well-known activists, including Joanna Marcinkowska, the party seeks to address animal welfare issues more effectively than existing parties. However, it faces controversies linked to its founders' ties with the Dolnośląski Animal Protection Inspectorate, which has been criticized for its methods. Analysts express skepticism about the party's chances in the current political landscape, citing its narrow focus. Despite this, the founders believe that similar parties have succeeded in other European countries, indicating potential for success in Poland.
