The article describes actions undertaken by Borman and Giedroyc, which aimed to convince Mieczysław Grydzewski, editor-in-chief of Wiadomości, to leave London and move the editorial office of his weekly to Italy. Moreover, the author present the specific functioning of the Polish community in exile in the early post-war years.
