Thousands march in support of Poland's new government

Thousands of backers of Poland’s ruling conservative party have marched in Warsaw with the party leader to show their support for its policies amid a growing political conflict.

The march, led by Law and Justice party head Jaroslaw Kaczynski, came a day after tens of thousands of government opponents demonstrated in Warsaw and elsewhere, saying the ruling party and its ally, President Andrzej Duda, are threatening democracy.
