The Polish People's Party (Polish: Polskie Stronnictwo Ludowe, PSL) is an agrarian political party in Poland.[10] It is currently led by Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz.
Its history traces back to 1895, when it held the name People's Party, although its name was changed to the present one in 1903. During the Second Polish Republic, the Polish People's Party was represented by a number of parties that held its name. They were all supportive of agrarian policies, although they spanned from the left-wing to the centre-right on the political spectrum. It was reformed to the People's Party shortly after the Sanacja regime took power. It took part into the formation of Polish government-in-exile during the World War II, and after the war it was again reformed into the Polish People's Party, and soon after into the United People's Party. During the existence of the Polish People's Republic, it was seen as a satellite party of the ruling Polish United Workers' Party that promoted rural interests. After the fall of communism, it participated in the governments led by the Democratic Left Alliance. In the mid-2000s, it began shifting more to the centre-right and it adopted more conservative policies. It entered in the government again following the 2007 parliamentary election, and since 2015 it has served in the opposition.
Today, it is positioned in the centre-right [11][12][13] and leans towards the right-wing;[4][5][6] besides holding agrarian and conservative views,[14][15][16] it is also Christian democratic,[17][18][19] and supports Poland's membership in the European Union.[20] It currently has 19 seats in the Sejm and two seats in the Senate. On national level, it heads the Polish Coalition; further, on European level, it is a part of the European People's Party.

PSL is technically a left-wing party, representing an agrarian socialist agenda, although it is also known for its social conservatism and is the oldest political party in Poland, dating back to before the communist regime. Throughout the 1990s and into the early 2000s, PSL was often a member of the ruling coalition with SLD. However, the coalition between SLD and PSL broke down during the 4th Parliamentary Session (2004), and since that time, the party has shifted to the center.

Ostatnie działania Polskiego Stronnictwa Ludowego robią wrażenie. - To najbardziej prawicowy PSL od przewrotu majowego (w 1926 roku), gdy jeden z odłamów ruchu ludowego był w rządzie z nacjonalistyczną prawicą - przypomniał prof. Rafał Chwedoruk.
- ^ a b Farbisz, Paweł (16 July 2024). "Koalicja PiS-u, PSL-u i Konfederacji? Dopiero po epoce Kaczyńskiego" (in Polish).
Prawica ma przecież wiele odmian. PiS to eurosceptyczny solidaryzm, PSL – umiarkowanie proeuropejski i umiarkowanie konserwatywny liberalizm, a Konfederacja – paleolibertarianizm z silnym akcentem narodowym i antyunijnym.

PSL zostało więc – trochę na życzenie własnego kierownictwa, a trochę ku uciesze aktywnego w zakresie skubania tej partii Donalda Tuska – odgrywać rolę Suwerennej Polski w rządzie Zjednoczonej Prawicy bis (bo nie ma wątpliwości, że obecny rząd zdominowany jest przez partie prawicowe, a lewicowy kwiatek do kożucha nawet nie piśnie, kiedy się mu np. zawinie obiecany wcześniej fotel marszałka Sejmu).

Obserwując dalsze działania ZSL/PSL ,,Odrodzenie", zapoznając się z jego programem i postawą wobec gabinetów wyłanianych przez parlament po wyborach w 1991 r., które były rządami ekipy ,,solidarnościowej" można jednoznacznie stwierdzić, że Polskie Stronnictwo Ludowe wywodzące się z ZSL było partią klasową, o lewicowym programie i elektoracie w dużej mierze dobrze oceniającym dawny ustrój.
[Observing the further activities of the ZSL/PSL "Odrodzenie", familiarising oneself with its programme and attitude towards the cabinets formed by the parliament after the 1991 elections, which were the governments of the "Solidarity" team, one can state unequivocally that the Polish People's Party derived from the ZSL was a class party, with a left-wing programme and an electorate largely comfortable with the former system.] - ^ "Kluby i koła". sejm.gov.pl.
