During Donald Tusk's speech, he presented the Citizen Coalition program, exposing the symbol of the white-red heart, which was expected to propose solidarity and unity. However, Piotr Gliński of the PiS organization interrupted, trying to convince the leader of the Civic Platform to focus on the symbol of 8 stars. “ Mr Gliński, the star is coming soon, ” he noted. You're all about those 8 stars. One's enough. He can’t wait.”
This may propose that Gliński was very determined to emphasize the symbolism associated with the 8 stars, possibly referring to their symbolic importance in the context of the EU, and the Holovnia pointed out with humour this excessive focus on 1 component of the symbol.
Donald Tusk expressed his satisfaction with the 100 circumstantial points they gave to the audience. He expressed joy by seeing their reaction to the white-red heart, which for him was a symbol of the authentic empathy of the government towards those who request it. However, Piotr Gliński attempted to change the narrative, suggesting no mention to the symbolism of 8 stars.
Simon Holovnia responded with humor to Gliński's stubbornness, indicating that this 1 star would shortly appear, which may have been a hint of any upcoming event. The holovnia emphasized the absurdity of concentration on this 1 element.
Tusk jokingly noted that he heard constant cries from the PiS side referring to “eight stars”, suggesting that there might be a unusual association in their reception with this symbolism that would not happen to him. Then he took the initiative and continued his speech. This could have been his way of distracting attention from this symbolic debate and focusing on the issues applicable to him during the exposé.
Emotions during Donald Tusk's exposé
— I'm certain On October 15 he will join symbolic dates in our Polish calendar. It will go back to past as a day of peaceful rebellion for freedom and democracy. Like August 31, 1980 or June 4, erstwhile we regained our independence, freedom, after the triumph of Solidarity, said the Prime Minister Donald Tusk in exposé.
Donald Tusk announced that voters had selected a fresh ruling coalition, which was called the Coalition on October 15. His speech was filled with emotions from the very beginning. The leader of the Civic Platform began by reading a moving farewell letter by Piotr Szczęsny, known as the ‘Gary Man’, who in 2017 self-incinerated in protest against PiS governments.
During this moment, the future Prime Minister was harassed by 1 of the MPs, but the leader of the Civic Coalition firmly replied that he would not let it to upset him. Simon Holovnia besides intervened, possibly in the context of calming the situation or referring to a subject that may have been controversial or delicate.
This may propose that the emotions and tensions during the speech were strong adequate that they required intervention and consequence of both the KO leader and another participants in the discussion to keep balance and appropriate speech during that public appearance.
