**Sovereign Poland** ([Polish](/source/Polish_language): *Suwerenna Polska*, **SP**), also known as **United Poland**[15] ([Polish](/source/Polish_language): *Solidarna Polska*; alternatively translated to **Solidarity Poland**),[18] until 2023, was a [Catholic-nationalist](/source/Christian_nationalism) [political party](/source/List_of_political_parties_in_Poland) in [Poland](/source/Poland) led by [Zbigniew Ziobro](/source/Zbigniew_Ziobro). It was founded in 2012, as the [Catholic-nationalist](/source/Christian_nationalism) split from the [Law and Justice](/source/Law_and_Justice_(Poland)), with whom they later formed the [United Right](/source/United_Right_(Poland)) alliance in 2014. Sovereign Poland merged with [Law and Justice](/source/Law_and_Justice) on 12 October 2024.

## Ideology

The party has been described as [national-conservative](/source/National_conservatism),[19] [nationalist](/source/Polish_nationalism),[2] and [Catholic-nationalist](/source/Christian_nationalism).[22] It was also staunchly [socially conservative](/source/Social_conservatism).[23] It was opposed to [abortion](/source/Abortion) and [euthanasia](/source/Euthanasia), and supported extending [maternity leave](/source/Maternity_leave) to nine months.[24] It was [eurosceptic](/source/Euroscepticism),[12][25] [anti-LGBT](/source/Anti-LGBT),[26] and its staunch opposition to [same-sex marriage](/source/Same-sex_marriage) was cited as a main reason it left the ECR group in the European Parliament in 2012.[27] It has also been described as [right-wing populist](/source/Right-wing_populism) mainly due to their [opposition to immigration](/source/Opposition_to_immigration).[28] It was the most anti-EU party in the United Right coalition.[7] Between 2012 and 2021 it was described as [right-wing](/source/Right-wing_politics)[8] and [far-right](/source/Far-right_politics),[9] with a [centre-right](/source/Centre-right_politics) faction.[10]

In its 2013 program, United Poland called for the government intervention in the economy, especially tax policy.[29] The party has called for a 'fat cat' tax on big companies, including [supermarkets](/source/Supermarket), and backs higher taxes on those who earn over 10,000 złotych (€2,400) a month.[24]

During the tenure of then-United Poland leader [Zbigniew Ziobro](/source/Zbigniew_Ziobro) as [Minister of Justice](/source/Ministry_of_Justice_(Poland)), Ziobro was the architect of judicial reforms to the [Constitutional Tribunal](/source/Constitutional_Tribunal_(Poland)), which resulted in the [Polish Constitutional Tribunal crisis](/source/Polish_Constitutional_Tribunal_crisis_(2015_%E2%80%93_ongoing)).[30] Law and Justice Prime Minister [Mateusz Morawiecki](/source/Mateusz_Morawiecki) has blamed United Poland for failures associated with these reforms, while Ziobro has criticised Law and Justice and President [Andrzej Duda](/source/Andrzej_Duda) for blocking elements of the reform package.[31]

In 2022, United Poland called for tougher [blasphemy laws in Poland](/source/Offending_religious_feelings_(Poland)), such as three-year jail terms for insulting church or interrupting Mass.[32]

## History

After Ziobro and fellow MEPs [Tadeusz Cymański](/source/Tadeusz_Cyma%C5%84ski) and [Jacek Kurski](/source/Jacek_Kurski) were ejected from PiS for disloyalty on 4 November 2011,[24] Ziobro's supporters within PiS formed a new group in the [Sejm](/source/Sejm_of_the_Republic_of_Poland).[33] Despite claims that the new group was not attempting to form a new party, the MPs were expelled from Law and Justice.[34] The party was founded in 2012 by [Law and Justice](/source/Law_and_Justice_(Poland)) (PiS) [MEP](/source/Member_of_the_European_Parliament) [Zbigniew Ziobro](/source/Zbigniew_Ziobro), who led the party's conservative Catholic-nationalist faction.[35]

In 2012, their MEPs left the [European Conservatives and Reformists](/source/European_Conservatives_and_Reformists_Group) (ECR) to join the [Europe of Freedom and Democracy](/source/Europe_of_Freedom_and_Democracy) (EFD) group in opposition to the ECR's more liberal stance on [gay marriage](/source/Gay_marriage), its support for the EU's [climate change](/source/Climate_change) policy, and its advocacy of cuts to the [Common Agricultural Policy](/source/Common_Agricultural_Policy).[27]

The party was officially launched on 24 March 2012. At the time, opinion polls put the party just around 2%.[24] In a 2020 poll, it found that if the party ran independent from the [United Right](/source/United_Right_(Poland)) it would gain 5.4% votes.[36]

Sovereign Poland merged with [Law and Justice](/source/Law_and_Justice) on 12 October 2024 during PiS congress in [Przysucha](/source/Przysucha),[37] despite concerns from some high-ranking members of both parties.[40]

The ruling coalition in the Polish Sejm is very slim and depends on radicals. Any concessions to Brussels would result in a major political crisis and, most probably, the dissolution of the coalition by its most anti-European member – United Poland. This party's leader, Justice Minister Zbigniew Ziobro, has already made threats about leaving the government and presenting his independent plans in 2023 if the prime minister follows the recommendations from Brussels.
