Duda's victory in Poland helps draw a 'pink line' through Europe
Last Sunday, the Polish president, Andrzej Duda, was re-elected by a narrow margin with the help of an assault on what he styled “LGBT ideology”: he campaigned on a “family charter” to protect Poles from this new threat, worse than communism.Two of Poland’s near neighbours have recently activated anti-LGBT politics in similar ways.
In May, Viktor Orbán’s Hungarian government passed a law that makes it impossible for trans people to change their gender on legal documents.
