The issue was central to June's presidential election where nationalist Karol Nawrocki - who ran on a slogan of 'Poland first, Poles first' - narrowly defeated the candidate backed by Prime Minister Donald Tusk. The Tusk government is now seeking to outflank its rivals by taking a tough approach to immigration. Interior Minister Tomasz Siemoniak said Sunday the decision was taken purely to combat 'illegal immigration' and insisted Poles and other EU nationals would not face inconvenience.
