Kukiz'15 is a right-wing political party in Poland led by punk rock musician Paweł Kukiz. It is an association, which is not registered as a political party.
The key postulates are:
The movement was founded after Kukiz stood in the 2015 presidential election, winning 21% of the vote and coming in third during the election's first round. Kukiz's primary issue during the election was the replacement of Poland's proportional representation electoral system with single member constituencies, which was the subject of a referendum in September 2015.
The movement is particularly popular among young people: Kukiz won 42% among voters aged 18 to 29 in the 2015 presidential election.
In the 2015 parliamentary election Kukiz'15 cooperated with the far-right National Movement, which gained 5 of Kukiz' 42 parliamentary seats.
On April 2016 National Movement management decided to leave Kukiz'15, but only one Member of Parliament (MP) followed party instructions. These ones, who stayed in Kukiz'15, together with a few other Kukiz' MPs, formed National Democracy (Endecja).
