Witold Tomczak

Witold Stanisław Tomczak (5 April 1957 – 11 March 2025) was a Polish far-right politician who was a member of the European Parliament from 2004 to 2009.

Before his political career, Tomczak worked as a physician. He graduated from the Medical University of Silesia in Katowice in 1987 and specialized in general medicine. He practiced as a family physician in Łęka Opatowska near Kalisz, where he was a local councilman from 1990 through 1998.

From 1997 to 2001, he was a Sejm member for the conservative party Christian-National Union (ZChN), which at that time was part of the Solidarity Electoral Action party (AWS). He left the AWS in 1999 to co-found the Polish Agreement party. In 2001, he ran on the ticket of the then newly established League of Polish Families in the Kalisz constituency and won a seat again.

Before Poland's EU accession, Tomczak served as a Polish observer to the European Parliament. In 2004, he was elected to the European Parliament in the Greater Poland Voivodship constituency, and served there from 2004 to 2009. He was a member of the euroskeptical Independence/Democracy Group in the parliament. He set on the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development and was a substitute for the Committee on Culture and Education and a member of the Delegation to the EU-Croatia Joint Parliamentary Committee.

Tomczak died on 11 March 2025, at the age of 67.
