45.7% of Poles surveyed declared their opposition to the Sejm's conservative, anti-abortion decision. 23.8% said they were positive about the decision. 12% said they were "indifferent" to the decision and 18.6% said they had not heard about it.
Assuming the sincerity of those saying they were "indifferent" or "unaware", that means that Polish society is more liberal about abortion, at least regarding its penalisation, than Polish society's representatives in the lower house.
As we reported last week, the Left's liberalising bill was only 4 votes short of passing the lower house.
