Poland’s ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party wants to regulate the status of the country’s journalists, in a move that the opposition is calling an assault on democratic freedoms.

The new rules are part of a 232-page party manifesto published last weekend in preparation for the October 13 general election that PiS looks very likely to win.
