Grażyna Torbicka with a rare political appeal. “What country do I live in?”

Grażyna Torbicka with a rare political appeal

Grażyna Torbicka is aware of the fact that in Poland it is mainly women who do not vote. Thus, they deprive themselves of the right to vote and then condemn themselves to the authority that decides for them in the most important matters – their own bodies. Torbicka appealed to her followers on social media and encouraged them to take part in the parliamentary elections next Sunday:

Imagine that only men have the right to vote in parliamentary elections. We, women, DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE, and that was the case 105 years ago. Our voice was irrelevant, of little social importance. Would we like to be in such a situation? I don’t think so. So let’s use our voice, because it is not true that one vote does not change anything, she wrote.

What does she think one vote can change? The answer is very simple: “Everything.”

If I don’t vote, it means that I don’t care about what’s going on around me or what country I live in. And it’s not true that things can’t be normal here. It can be normal! There are a lot of issues that need to be sorted out and changed.

Grażyna Torbicka left TVP in 2016 after over 30 years. . The station allegedly interfered with its original materials and made changes without prior agreement. “It was integrated into my program, which I had been doing for 20 years, without my knowledge. It shouldn’t have happened, so I decided that my cooperation with Telewizja Polska should end and I left,” she said in an interview with Plejada.
