Law and Justice leader stands up for prime minister Morawiecki amid tape scandal

The so-called tape scandal with secret recordings of Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, before he became PM, continues. Mr Morawiecki can be heard offering help, sinecures for his friends and their children. Ahead of local elections, this could be difficult for the ruling party, but nevertheless, the party leader Jarosław Kaczyński has decided to close ranks and defend the PM he nominated. The opposition now is saying that the revelation of these new recordings could be due to a strife within the party.
