This week, together with @ARDIEuroParl and a number of NGOs, wrote a statement on the new Commissioner in charge of equality.
Our biggest concern is that @hadjalahbib's portfolio is not related to justice and the rule of law.

Today, a vote took place in the Bulgarian Parliament on a set of horrible anti-LGBTIQ amendments to the Child Protection Act.
The AMs were, luckily, rejected!
Unfortunately, some of our usual allies voted in favour of these discriminatory amendments.
Full room today at our joint "Meet & greet" event with @ILGAEurope 😍
THANK YOU to everyone who came! 💖 We'll continue to fight the good fight in this new parliamentary term! ✊️
