Kawczynski's family came to Britain from Poland in 1940, after their homeland was occupied by German forces. He was educated at the University of Stirling (reading business studies with languages) where he was President of the University Conservative Association in 1991. Whilst being President, Daniel led a renaissance in the Stirling Conservative Association and ensured the re-election of the sitting Conservative MP for Stirling, Michael Forsyth. He rented a room in a house on Short Heath Rd, Erdington in his late teens and early twenties. He first stood for Parliament in the 2001 general election, for Ealing Southall, coming a distant second with 18% of the vote. He won Shrewsbury and Atcham at the 2005 general election, succeeding Paul Marsden who had been elected as Labour in 1997 and 2001.
He is believed to be the tallest MP ever to sit at the Parliament of the United Kingdom, at 6 feet 8½ inches.
