Split On 14 February 2026, lower house member
Żaneta Cwalina-Śliwowska became the first Poland 2050 member to leave the party, followed shortly thereafter by the MEP
Michał Kobosko and former Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs . They were also followed by the Deputy Minister of National Defense
Paweł Zalewski, and
Joanna Mucha, former Deputy Minister of Education and Science. Ultimately, on 17 February, Hennig-Kloska and her supporters made a decision to leave Poland 2050 and create a rival political formation. The next day, on 18 February, a total of 18 party members, led by Hennig-Kloska, announced that they left Poland 2050 and created Centrum. Hennig-Kloska declared that the parliamentary circle will also become a political party. Centrum presented its own logo - letter '
C' in blue to green
gradient. He argued that the reason for defections was hatred towards Pełczyńska-Nałęcz, and that Centrum members will become "
Civic Coalition's electoral list fillers". Shortly after the formation of Centrum was declared, Marshal of the Sejm
Włodzimierz Czarzasty confirmed that he has received the parliamentary circle's application and that its existence has become a fact.
Registration On 19 February, Centrum was formally registered as a parliamentary club and was listed on the
Sejm's website. Centrum declared that it will also become a political associaton and a political party, and its members stated that it would be a "party for entrepreneurs". On 20 February,
Aleksandra Leo announced that Centrum is being registered as a political association, and that it will also become a political party, of a liberal and pro-business profile. Centrum Polska also entered talks with
New Poland, a centrist party founded in 2025; both sides expressed their willingness to form an electoral coalition, and to form a joint Senate group. On 24 February, Centrum prepared documents needed to register a political party that it would submit the next day, on 25 February. It also organized a meeting which was attended by 90 people, two-thirds being former Poland 2050 activists.
Political association On 24 February, Centre held its first club meeting, where they elected
Mirosław Suchoń as the chairman of the parliamentary club,
Ewa Szymanowska as secretary and
Norbert Pietrykowski as disciplinary officer. On 27 February, Centrum declared that it had founded a political association. It held a general meeting of the founding members, established a resolution, and elected the board. Hennig-Kloska was unanimously elected the president of the association, and stated that the association was founded in view to eventually establish a political party. On 2 March 2026, the association was registered as Centrum Polska and had 100 members, consisting of Centrum MPs and local Poland 2050 who defected to the association. Centrum Polska announced that it is planning to transform itself into a political party, but will focus on active involvement and recruitment of party members first. Hennig-Kloska stated that a political association is the most convenient and safest form to legally gather members. The association declared that it remains in the ruling coalition, and will not seek the position of deputy speaer or deputy prime minister in the cabinet. In April 2026, prominent Poland 2050 activists in the
Lublin Voivodeship left the party to join the Centrum association. These included Honorata Słomiany, the Poland 2050's former mayor candidate in
Włodawa, Rafał Maksywoicz, former secretary of the party's structures in the Lublin Voideship, and the Lublin City Council member Magdalena Szczygieł-Mitrus. On 18 March 2026, three of the Centrum senators: Grzegorz Fedorowicz, Piotr Masłowski, and Jacek Trela, along with the independent senator
Mirosław Różański, joined ranks with the three senators of
New Poland:
Andrzej Dziuba,
Zygmunt Frankiewicz, and
Wadim Tyszkiewicz, to create a new Senate group
New Poland – Centre (). Grzegorz Fedorowicz became the leader of the group. Andrzej Dziuba became the deputy leader. Members of the group stated that the cooperation between New Poland and Centrum is an "ideological alliance" rather than a technical one, united by common goals. They also stated that both New Poland and Centrum could pursue closer cooperation should Centrum become a political party. New Poland - Centre announced two bills that it wishes to present — first is a bill proposed by Andrzej Dziuba that would allow Social Welfare Homes (, DPS) to cover part of maintenance costs from the estate of deceased residents. The second bill is being worked on Mirosław Różański, and aims to reform the Polish military. Members of the group confirmed that New Poland - Centre will remain in the ruling coalition and its Senate-related alliance, the
Senate Pact 2023. On 26 March, the MPs of
Law and Justice and
Confederation Liberty and Independence submitted a
motion of no confidence against Hennig-Kloska as Minister of Climate and Environment to the Sejm. Hennig-Kloska was accused of undermining Polish economy by being "a staunch supporter of implementing the so-called climate policy of the European Union at a time when everyone already knows that this climate policy is dragging the European economy down." MPs supporting the motion argued that Hennig-Kloska is "the face of this government’s disastrous policy on energy prices and the cost of living", claiming that she was “sabotaging the state by attempting to base energy sovereignty on renewable energy sources”, “acting in the interests of the wind power lobby and renewable energy sources”, and “pushing for the development of offshore wind farms, falsely presented as a recipe for cheap, safe, and reliable energy for Poles.” == Ideology ==
