The European Union's chief executive lashed out against homophobic policies of the nationalist government in Warsaw in saying on Wednesday there was 'no place' in the bloc for districts proclaimed 'LGBT-free zones' in Poland.

BRUSSELS - The European Union’s chief executive lashed out against homophobic policies of the nationalist government in Warsaw in saying on Wednesday there was “no place” in the bloc for districts proclaimed “LGBT-free zones” in Poland.

“LGBTQI-free zones are humanity free zones. And they have no place in our Union,” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen told her annual policy speech to the European Parliament.Last month, Poland’s justice minister said a town that had lost EU funding over dubbing itself a zone free of “LGBT ideology” would receive government financial support.

That leads to situations in which, for example, two women recognised as mothers of their children in Belgium would not be treated the same way in Poland, meaning they would not have the same rights vis-a-vis their children depending on where in the EU they are.

No such places exist in Poland. Reuters is repeatedly spreading fake news

LGBTQI-free zones are decadence free zones. And morality has no place in our (European) Union

Fine. Make EU great again.

EuropeanUnion = IdenticalValues ⁉️

Mandatory universal wokeness.

Kick Poland out of the EU. If they want to go back to the middle ages well, fuck em, they can go there alone.

Yet you let 100.000+ muslims in that hate LGBT and will only get worse when they are in superiority (No go zones)

Okay, Please make this a law and implement it in full!

Are LGBT free zones even a question? Really.Face with rolling eyes Apparently this world has learning nothing in 80 years ... or in 4.543 Billion years... Not even when a gay person saves the Europe..and the world.

Yeah? What you going to do about it? I don’t support Poland but I don’t support the EU even less. Go on EU do something?

Pretty sure this white woman is now an Islamophobe.

Saying it is a first step. And what about the sanctions vonderleyen ?

The LGBT dictatorship is taking on shape. Soon you will be imprisoned if you tear apart or burn an LGBT flag! Mark my words. And we the majority allowed this to happen, over a bunch of unelected officials. And no this has nothing to do with hate against any one group of people!

Wait, a zone entirely void of any lgbt ilk? Utopia?

'While both post-communist state benefit from generous EU handouts' Donations are not alms. The donations are compensation for opening the market of 40 million consumers to companies from France and Germany.

Why are u gae

Poland disagrees.

Well there's a first! I agree with something Van Der Leyen says!

😂😂

Why not organizing a referendum about this? I thought democracy was the major principle of the EU...

EU carbon market's free handouts are impeding climate action, auditors sayThe European Union should change the way it hands out free pollution permits in the bloc's carbon market, which is failing to bring about deep cuts in emissions, EU auditors said. Let me pollute your credits that you woudn't have polluted in the first place. No, tax the negative externality, don't incentivize spreading the pollution around or converting non-polluting credits to those who will pollute.
