"I am voting against the resolution on homophobia in Europe.
I do not entirely agree with some of the contents of the European Parliament’s resolution. The text, which is based solely on information from Poland, does not reflect the intentions and the title of the resolution (‘Resolution on homophobia in Europe’). Unfortunately, in the European Union, we encounter homophobia at every step. The failure to mention the infringements of the rights of homosexuals in other European countries makes this document incomplete.
The statements made by politicians such as Maciej Giertych, Jarosław Kaczyński or Ewa Sowińska fortunately do not translate into specific legislative measures. No legislation has been drafted which infringes the rights of homosexuals. However, I am afraid that this state of affairs may change. There is no support for the view that teachers who promote homosexuality among their students should be dismissed. These kinds of irresponsible statements are offensive to those who wish to live in a free, tolerant and open Poland. They are a threat to democracy and they do not reflect the views of the majority of Polish people."@en1
