BREAKING: Kadzior and his faction split from the Sovereign Valruzia, and will form their own party

A historic day for the Valruzian politics, but not a positive one, clearly not for the Sovereign Valruzia, as the ruling party of two decades suffers a major conflict within its ranks. The two-months-long conflict following the close leadership election result, where the "agrarian-progressive" Dominika Rozek has won against the "left-wing populist" Mateusz Kadzior. With Kadzior's attempts to reconcile and do either a recount or a second round between him and Rozek being denied by the new leadership council, Kadzior has announced that he and his party faction will indeed split from the SW, and form their own political force.

"I am a man, who hates conflicts, I simply don't like them, and I do my best to avoid them. But when you do everything to keep the party together, unite under the ideas we have always fought for, but the leadership simply ignores you and refuses to even listen? I have no other choice but to leave. In fact, the party left me, not the other way around. I can no longer stay in the party, new ideals of which I do not support, simply.

According to the Gazeta Wieczorna's sources, Kadzior has already been gathering signatured to form his own party, Progressive Socialist Party or PPS, which will pursue the "progressive Valruzianism" as its main ideology, while also following mostly same principles as all of the five Nowik governments. PPS would become the fourth left-of-centre political party in Valruzia, with some internal polling showing that the party could capture a significant amount of left-wing voters, allowing for the voting split to happen, especially of those who voted SW previously, something which has been almost impossible until this day.

Reaffirming his previous statements, Kadzior said that even in the case of the new party and a separate parliamentary group will be formed, members of that group will still give support to the Nowik government, adding that him and Rozek "may have differences", but they are still united in their opposition to the "right-wing extremists, who follow the steps of Szumski and Razem".
