Jarosław Królewski wrote that non-compliance with licensing requirements has been confirmed. He pointed out that organizing a high-risk match, including the protection and securing the presence of visiting fans, costs significantly more than 250,000 zł. He also indicated that not allowing opposing fans could bring additional revenue to the organizer if the change in event status allows for the sale of alcohol. In his opinion, in such a scenario, not accepting guests could be beneficial both commercially and sportively. He added that the penalty should effectively discourage rule-breaking, rather than being a cost considered upfront. #sport #licencjonowanie #kibice (translated)

Deweloperuch.pl wrote that the Sejm rejected an amendment which, according to the author, would have given members of housing cooperatives greater influence in prohibiting short-term rentals in their buildings. The author claimed that the adopted regulations would require support from half of all members of the cooperative, not just half of the participants at the general meeting. As an example, he mentioned the Warsaw Housing Cooperative, which he estimates has around 27,000 members. This would mean the need to gather 13,500 people, which Deweloperuch.pl deemed virtually impossible. He added that it would only take half the votes of those present at the general meeting to dissolve the cooperative. The author argued that the regulations would make it difficult for residents to block short-term rental activities, and their effects would be felt in many older parts of cities and tenement houses. He also wrote that the amendment was proposed by politicians from Poland 2050, the Left, and the Together Party, but it was rejected by the votes of the Civic Coalition, PSL, and the Confederation. According to Deweloperuch.pl, the regulations will deliberately limit the ability of cooperatives to prohibit such rentals. #spółdzielnie #mieszkalnictwo #polityka (translated)

BPM Chief Marcin Przydacz summarized the ongoing visit of the President of the Republic of Poland and his spouse to the Philippines. He wrote that it included a conversation with President Marcos about bilateral relations, especially economic ones, and about Poland's future in the G20 group. He noted that the Philippines chaired ASEAN this year and was set to host a summit of the organization with the participation of the President of the United States in a few weeks. According to Przydacz, Poland's voice before this meeting was important. Przydacz wrote that the President took a group of entrepreneurs to the Philippines, and during the visit, a Polish-Filipino business summit in the IT sector took place, which was patronized by President Nawrocki. He expressed hope that the meeting would yield positive results. He also mentioned the President's lecture at the University of Santo Tomas, aimed at young Filipinos, which was intended to present the potential of Poland and its economy as well as the country's growing political role. Przydacz assessed that the President's contacts with Manny Pacquiao, an eight-time world champion, former senator, and then minister for poverty alleviation, helped promote Poland and the Polish brand in the Philippines and Southeast Asia. He wrote that he considered this aspect of the visit to be particularly effective and emphasized that Poland should be promoted in a modern way. #Polska #Filipiny #dyplomacja (translated)

The spokesperson for the President of the Republic of Poland, Rafał Leśkiewicz, said on Radio Jedynka that the United States conducted a review of its military forces in Europe. Its results were to be included in a document that would first go to Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and likely be presented to Donald Trump around the turn of November and December. According to Leśkiewicz, a decision about the deployment of American forces in Europe would then be made. He added that Poland should strive to have a base located in the country and assessed that the statements of Prime Minister Donald Tusk suggesting a different course for the conversation between Trump and Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz did not help in this regard. Leśkiewicz stated that the president hoped until the end for the ruling party to prepare a solution in accordance with the constitution but did not want Poles to remain hostages of Tusk's politics. He accused the prime minister of using fuel prices in political disputes and attributed the responsibility for their high prices during the summer period to the ruling party. The spokesperson also argued that the laws vetoed by the president left several billion zlotys in the pockets of Poles, which they could manage in a difficult economic situation. Speaking about the president's visit to the Philippines, Leśkiewicz described it as the first historic visit of a Polish president to that country. He informed that Karol Nawrocki opened the Polish-Filipino business summit dedicated to the IT industry, organized since 2022, and delivered a lecture at the University of Santo Tomas in Manila. He added that the Philippines bought Polish Black Hawk helicopters and were to acquire more, and he regarded the development of economic cooperation with this country as important. The spokesperson said that the international actions of the president conducted since the beginning of the year aimed to support Poland's permanent presence in the G20 group, develop economic cooperation, attract capital, and facilitate Polish companies in obtaining contracts. He emphasized that Poland was interested in ensuring that the invitation to the G20 was not a one-time event. He pointed out that good relations with the United States were key, reminding that it was Donald Trump's decision that invited Poland to the group. He added that President Karol Nawrocki sought further allies, and the government should support these efforts. At the same time, he described the economic situation as a deepening crisis, indicating a high deficit and budget gap. #Polska #G20 #USA (translated)

AlkoInwestor wrote that his ETF on the S&P 500 was reaching new heights. He described an imagined journey on the Łódź public transport, during which he wanted to thank passengers for their purchases that support companies in the index. Among the examples, he mentioned using Instagram on an iPhone, drinking Coca-Cola, working on a laptop with Windows, eating McDonald's, browsing Amazon, and watching YouTube. He also added Apple, Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, and Starbucks. He presented the passengers as people who earned money and then spent it on products and services from companies in which, as he wrote, he was an indirect co-owner. The author announced that he would be buying more ETF units every month and checking whether people were working hard enough. He linked this to a call for them to buy, subscribe, scroll through social media, change phones every two years, and choose large fries at McDonald's. #inwestowanie #finanse #ETF (translated)

The Institute of Truth informed that the Regional Prosecutor's Office in Warsaw has filed an indictment in court against eight individuals regarding irregularities at the National Centre for Research and Development. According to the description, they were accused of, among other things, participating in a criminal organization, fraud to the detriment of NCBiR, issuing false VAT invoices, and money laundering. Investigators established that between 2021 and 2023, companies were created without any actual research and development activities to obtain public funds. The author described SMS correspondence from 2017 between Adam Bielan, his wife Klaudia, and Piotr M., the president of Chime Networks and one of the main accused. The company sought around 123 million PLN for the "Cable" project concerning underwater fiber optic infrastructure. According to the accounts from journalists of the podcast "In Connection with the Investigation," Dominika Długosz and Mariusz Gierszewski, Bielan was supposed to assist in organizing a meeting between Piotr M. and a Qatari delegation, and his wife received a presentation from the company and declared she would pass it on to her husband. Bielan was not charged. The Institute of Truth emphasized that Bielan had denied any close relationship with Piotr M. and involvement in the "Cable" project. He claimed to have met him through Jacek Żalek, and the meeting with the Qataris was of a courtesy nature; later, he was supposed to warn against the project. Żalek, on the other hand, maintained that Bielan and Piotr M. had known each other for years. The author recalled that Żalek was accused, among other things, of exceeding authority and accepting bribes, while the European Prosecutor's Office accused Piotr M. of attempting to defraud funding. The contract for 123 million PLN was ultimately not signed. The author stressed that the correspondence from 2017 does not prove Bielan's involvement in the later grant application, but indicates his contacts with the entrepreneur and assistance in organizing a high-level meeting. He added that Bielan was not included in the indictment. #InstytutPrawdy #NCBiR #oszustwa #przestępczość (translated)
