Polish opposition leader, head of the Law and Justice Party, Kaczynski, on turning Poland into a police state: an attack on the Constitutional Court. Tusk's security forces forced their way into the court. This is the first case in the world. From today Poland becomes a police state, and from here there is a direct path to authoritarianism, and then to totalitarianism. We Poles must not scare ourselves! The civil protest, completely legal, must continue! The court is the guarantor of our freedom and sovereignty! Tusk's violation of the law has no limit!
