Overview
Your Movement (, which can also be translated as Your Move, TR) was a social liberal, populist and anti-clerical political party in Poland. The party was founded by Janusz Palikot, a former Civic Platform MP, in October 2010 as Palikot's Movement (, RP). The party is classified as a centre-left to left-wing party in the context of Polish politics.
The party adopted its current name and programme on 6 October 2013.
History
In July 2010, Palikot—then still a member of Civic Platform (PO)—suggested that the late President Lech Kaczyński was himself to blame for the Polish Air Force Tu-154 crash in Smolensk, Russia. In the aftermath of the resulting controversy, Palikot announced plans to create his own social movement. On 2 October he organized the "Modern Poland" congress in Warsaw, attended by several thousand. At the congress, Palikot announced his 15-point program.
On 6 October, Palikot resigned from PO, along with Kazimierz Kutz.
On 9 January 2011, Palikot gave his MP ID card to the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity to be auctioned off.
