	League of Polish Families - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This made the LPR the second largest party in Poland in that election, second only to the conservative-liberal Platforma Obywatelska, and well ahead of the then ruling post-communist Sojusz Lewicy Demokratycznej, the populist Samoobrona and the conservative Prawo i Sprawiedliwość.
		In 2004 during the affair with election and speach of Rocco Buttiglione, the conservative Italian nominee as European Commissioner for Justice, Freedom, and Security, LPR MEPs demanded the dissolution of the parliament because they felt it was under the influence of a homosexual lobby.
		LPR opposes: selling land to foreigners, reinstituting capital punishment, abolishing the draft, legalizing "soft drugs", abortion and euthanasia, promotion of homosexualism.

		Two in particular are worthy of mention due to their unexpected electoral success: the hard-core farmers’ group Samoobrona (Self-defense) won 10.2% and Liga Polskich Rodzin (League of Polish Families), a right-wing Catholic party — 7.87%. Samoobrona portrays itself as the only organization that truly cares about the needs of the most disadvantaged Poles.
		As a sign of protest against worsening economic conditions in the rural areas and diminishing viability of agricultural production, the party has been organizing roadblocks and farmers’ protests throughout the country.
		Liga, on the other hand, perceives its role as the moral standard-bearer in the political arena, and demonstrates strong Euro-skepticism specifically targeted against the possibility of increased foreign land ownership in Poland after EU accession.
