That's how the html table from the web page is formatted.
For 15% for example, you have some text and a LIST of 17 items. Not much to do about it, you can't change the formats on the web page.

You will need a recursive function, there are more nested lists.

Here is one (name it CombineList):

(Item as any)=>
let
Text= if Value.Is(Item, type list) then
List.Accumulate(Item,"",(state,current)=> Text.Combine({if Value.Is(current, type list) then CombineList(current) else current,state}," ") )
else
Item
in
Text

Then just add a new column in your query, calling this function:

= Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Custom", each CombineList([Przychody ewidencjonowane]))
