My felling exactly. These dresses (especially trousers) look more like Russain, Ukrainian or something like that.

No, Senate is an upper chamber of a parliament. It reviews laws after they are passed by the lower chamber "Sejm". It has also no say in approving the government.

The picture was actually taken in Cracow. But the costumes are not Polish definitely.

These guys are wearing Cracow region costumes (from your link):

What do you mean "No?" I wrote that the Senate was an upper chamber. You had responded to a post about the Sejm, which clearly identified it as the lower chamber, by dismissing the relevance of the Senate. I thought you thought the article was about the Senate, and I was pointig out that it was not.

Much of the style, I like... but those pants hurt my eyes. I didn't realize that golf was so popular in Poland.

He is at odds with the leaders of the winning party.

All this discussion of Polish costumes is cute, but it belongs on another thread.

I'm interested in knowing what, if anything, this election means for Polish and European politics.
