Konfederacja Launches Krakow Mayoral Campaign With Health Crisis Protest

KRAKOW, POLAND - JULY 8: New Hope (Nowa Nadzieja) party chairman Slawomir Mentzen breaks through a symbolic brick wall labeled 'Narodowy Fundusz Zdrowia' (National Health Fund) with a sledgehammer during a Konfederacja press conference outside the Gabriel Narutowicz Municipal Specialist Hospital in Krakow, Poland, July 8, 2026. The performance stunt physically dramatized the coalition's platform to dismantle the state healthcare monopoly while kicking off a single-day campaign blitz supporting Bartosz Bochenczak's snap mayoral election bid.
