100 days of PiS

Monday marks 100 days of the Beata Szydło government. Many points of PiS’ agenda have been examined now. One of the points in Law and Justice’s campaign was building cheap council homes. Real estate prices in Krakow are constantly going up, but, with PiS’ plan, 1 square meter could be available for 2.5 thousand PLN, which has excited many Law and Justice supporters in Krakow. Analysts suspect that with the current budget the government could build up to 7 thousand new homes. Currently, no new details are available on the status, or if the project has started.
