News / Does democratic Poland guarantee it's LGBT citizens respect for human and civil rights? [1169]
I've read that land can't be purchased by foreigners anymore - but I don't see how that really would affect me as I am a citizen.
From the forums here I found this - https://polishforums.com/real-estate/poland-new-land-law-legislation-make-77587/
- If unable to find a buyer the government body for land will acquire the land at market value. (likely to be less than current value)
- Any abuse of the law on this will result in land being acquired the government body for land and sold on at market value.
- As land value drops farmers will find it difficult to sell at a price which covers their mortgage/loan.
That's actually good for me - if my land is worth 4 5 mil zloty or whatever and they'd give me even half I'd sell it tomorrow. I don't have any mortgage or loans or anything else on it so it's just sitting there anyway.
Again though, this doesn't have much to do this with this LGBT thread.
Here's a few articles I found from an old election - when this question was pretty important apparently:
thegully.com/essays/gaymundo/051110_poland_election.html
Right-wing candidates, pandering to a traditionally homophobic electorate, openly used insulting terms such as "pederasta" and "pedal." These words, which not too long ago would have been deemed unsuitable to utter in polite company, are now heard in parliamentary debates and even on television.
Radio Maryja dubbed recent developments in Spain and Poland "homosexual terror" "sodomitical unions" and "totalitarianism of sin."
Jaroslaw recently announced that "homosexuals should not be allowed to teach." Earlier he had told the weekly Ozon: "The affirmation of homosexuality will lead to the downfall of civilization. We can't agree to it."

Wierzejski claimed that "the homosexual community's agenda is to propagate deviant attitudes among youth, and - what is worse - they are connected to a world of quasi-criminal character, including pedophilia."
"If deviants start to demonstrate, they should be bashed with a baton."
I'm starting to like these PC Polish Politicians more and more!
You haven't read the laws, have you? The new agricultural law means that they can nationalise land, hence why some farmers are getting very very upset.

No, because the parties simply didn't want to fight an election on the issue.
