Lively Protest Shows Solidarity - LGBT Poland

26/08/2020

Despite rainy conditions, a protest was well supported outside City Hall or the Council House, here in Bristol on Tuesday evening. It was supported by a coalition of progressive political and LGBTQ campaigning groups and was aimed at showing solidarity with the LGBTQ community in Poland, where a right wing government has been scapegoating minorities as it tries to tap into prejudices to shore up its power base. People carried placards aimed at the Polish authoritarian government, including one which read “We are Not An Ideology and You Will Never Get Rid of Us”. Wise words that need to be heard by bigots around the globe. For more information, pop along to the website of PolishRainbow in the UK, a facebook group that helped faciliate the Bristol protest. Useful news and ideas on how to continue the fight for freedom in Eastern Europe can also be found at the web feed of “LGBTQ News Poland” which you can also find on Facebook.
