After eight years of rule by the Law and Justice (PiS) party, the Civic Coalition (Koalicja Obywatelska), Third Way (Trzecia Droga) and The Left (Lewica) (hereinafter: democratic parties) together have 248 seats in Polish parliament, which is enough to govern. After eight years of violating the Constitution and the rule of law, the EU-sceptic Law and Justice party lost the majority in the Polish parliament that is necessary to form a government. The process of restoring the rule of law is currently underway. However, it will not be easy, as the democratic parties did not obtain the majority necessary to override the veto of the President, who is a former Law and Justice MP.
