"Wiosna" (eng. "Spring), is a political party created in February 2019 by Robert Biedroń, former president of the city of Słupsk, a member of the Polish Parliament (Sejm), the first openly gay person in the Polish Parliament. "The Spring" is a centre-left party with a social and liberal world view, promoting the European civilisation standards. The main postulates are: separation of the state and the church, taxing the church, extending women's rights, including the right to abortion, support for homosexual people, same sex marriages, ecology, improvement of health care. The party finds many followers among the young generation, more progressive and open minded than their opponents from political competition. As could be expected a particularly strong opposition comes from the far-right, who finds The Spring’s ideology particularly „controversial”.
