Polish Peasant Bloc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Polski Blok Ludowy)


The Polski Blok Ludowy (PBL) (Polish Peasant Bloc) was a short lived political party in Poland, founded in 2002 by dissenting members from the parliamentary bodies of the Polish People's Party (PSL) and Self-Defense of the Polish Republic (Samoobrona). Its leader was Wojciech Mojzesowicz.

In 2004 the PBL supported Marek Belka's candidacy as Prime Minister.[1]

The PBL functioned as a political grouping until January 2005. Thereafter the group splintered and its representatives joined various other political parties.

Among the Bloc's former parliamentary representatives were: Wacław Klukowski (Szczecin constituency), Piotr Smolana (Bielsko-Biała) and Mojzesowicz himself (Bydgoszcz)
