Poland’s powerful conservative ruling party leader, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, has rejoined the government as the only deputy prime minister in the cabinet – a move that gives him an enhanced position as the country heads toward a general election in the autumn.

To make way for Mr Kaczynski, four other deputy prime ministers resigned from their positions.
