Polish PM ridicules François Hollande's 4% poll rating in Tusk row

Speaking at an ill-tempered EU summit in Brussels, Beata Szydło took aim at Hollande after the French president appeared to suggest that Poland – as one of the biggest recipients of EU structural funds – should toe the line on Tusk’s re-election.

Szydło said she would not accept threats from a leader with Hollande’s low polling numbers: “Am I supposed to take seriously the blackmail of a president who has a 4% approval rating and who soon won’t be president?”
