mLine 1:
Line 1: − + − − Law and Justice claims to be a conservative party and is widely considered as main force of polish [[right-wing]]. It opposes legalizing [[abortion]], [[Homosexual_Marriage|homosexual marriages]] and supports restoring [[death penalty]]. Nevertheless Law and Justice also highly supports [[progressive tax]], [[nationalization]] of some corporations, [[Universal Health Care|universal state-owned healthcare]] and concept of "[[social justice]]". It opposes [[privatization]] which it considers to be "stealing of national property" and usually justifies increasing regulation as fighting potential corruption. − − Law and Justice won parliamentary election in 2005. It created a coallition government with national conservative League of Polish Families and populistic left-wing Self-Defence of the Republic of Poland. The coallition fell in 2007 in the result of allegations of corruption on the part of Andrzej Lepper, leader of Self-Defence and Deputy Prime Minister. The Sejm voted its own dissolution and early elections were held in october 2007. Since then Law and Justice is the largest opposition party in Poland. − − In 2006 League of Polish Families proposed to amdend constitution so that it would be stated that life is protected from the moment of conception. Initially the project was supported by Law and Justice, but then the reading of the amendment was changed so that it would only claim that "human dignity is inherent from the moment of conception". After the bill was still rejected by the Sejm, Marshal of the Sejm (speaker) Marek Jurek resigned from the office, left Law and Justice and created a new right-wing party called Right of the Republic, which enjoyes the support of less than 1% of voters (only 0,24% in 2011 election). In 2007 some of Law and Justice leaders, including Jarosław Kaczyński, stated that they are against tightering of abortion law, which means they support so called "compromise" which allows abortion when the women's life or health is threatened, when pregnancy is a result of rape or incest and when the fetus is irreversibly damaged. Nevertheless in 2011 Law and Justice voted in favor of totally banning abortion, but the bill was rejected anyway. − − In 2011 a few prominent members were excluded from the party due to internal conflict and lack of acceptance for their ideas for reforming the party. In 2012 they founded a new party called Solidary Poland (Polish: ''Solidarna Polska'') with Zbigniew Ziobro, former Minister of Justice, as its leader. −
