  "account": "In a new podcast from Notes from Poland, editor-in-chief Daniel Tilles and deputy editor-in-chief Alicja Ptak delve into the impact of contentious issues on smaller towns in Poland. The pair examine how migration, women's rights, Jewish heritage, and LGBT+ rights have been influenced by national far-right ideologies. They explore how these topics are covered and debated at the local level, and discuss the implications of these developments as Poland approaches parliamentary elections next year. The conversation was based on a report produced as part of Notes from Poland's new bespoke service, offering expert analysis to clients. Notes from Poland is a small editorial team run by an independent, non-profit foundation that relies on reader donations for its operations.",
