Later in the article it is more honest in calling Tusk’s Civic Platform “center right” . Tusk and his party differ little from Jaroslaw Kaczynski’s Law and Justice party in that both are fiscally and socially conservative, but with Law and Justice (My preference) being more nationalistic, while Civic Platform is more pro-European.
Nevertheless it is good that the Bishops there have brought the insidious nature of this innocuous sounding law to Tusk’s attention, and I pray he will do the right thing. If only our Bishops had the same level of commitment as the Poles do.
That said, in Continental Europe “liberal” is not used in the same context it is in North America. For example in Germany, the Free Democratic Party is the most pro-business/free enterprise/ small government mainstream party in Germany, yet they refer to themselves as “Die Liberalen”.
