Thanks. So surface level this sounds like a good thing, right?

I would think so. Means Poland is taking extra steps to weed itself of Russian influence. One step further in isolating themselves from Russian interference.

On a surface level, yes. The initial proposal (I'm not sure how the final version looks like) gave the commission an ability to ban someone from participating in politics without a trial or evidence.

Done by the current government, this will be a giant smear campaign against the opposition.
