Political party in Poland

The Polish National Party (Polish: Polska Partia Narodowa) was a fringe nationalist and ultra-conservative political party in Poland led by Leszek Bubel.[citation needed] Its motto was: "I am Polish, therefore I have Polish obligations", as quoted after the Polish politician and statesman Roman Dmowski whose ideas were used by the starting point for its ideology.

History and leadership

The leader of the party during the 1990s was Boleslaw Tejkowski.[1] Both the party and Tejkowski were notorious for their virulent nationalist and antisemitic propaganda.[1] The party was registered on March 22, 2004. In 2004 the party participated in the European Parliament elections and took the last 21st place with 0.04% votes. In the 2005 elections for the Polish Senate and Sejm, the party received 34,127 votes or 0.29% of the total.[2][3] In Presidential elections of the same year, Leszek Bubel received 18,828 votes, or 0.13%[4] At one point in 2005, the party had over 7,000 members. The party did not compete in the 2007 Parliamentary elections nor in the 2009 European Parliament elections.

The Polish National Party was deregistered on December 10, 2014, by the District Court of Warsaw.[5]

The Bubel band

At the beginning of 2008 chairman of the party Leszek Bubel appeared on YouTube with the song "Longinus Zerwimycka".[6] The song made fun of Jews in Poland and told them to go to the United States. Bubel released another video clip: "Bzykający Rabin"[7] ("Buzzing Rabbi"). The word "bzykać" in Polish slang means "to engage in sex". The PPN website's 2008 domain name "donaldtusk.net" was described by Bubel as a bad joke.[8] Bubel and his band have released six albums:
