Polish Prime Minister Jaroslaw Kaczynski has sacked his left-wing deputy, bringing an end to the four-month-old governing coalition. The move, which could lead to early elections, comes in the middle of a row over next year's budget. Andrzej Lepper had repeatedly criticised Mr Kaczynski's Law and Justice party over the budget. He also criticised the Polish decision to send an additional 1,000 troops to the NATO mission in Afghanistan. Kaczynski said he would try to assemble a new parliamentary majority with breakaway members of Lepper's party and another small rural based group within the next few days. If that fails, he said, early elections, probably to be held in November, would be the only solution, BBC commented.
