A Swiss girl has been been taken into care because her parents stopped her taking puberty blockers, breaching a ban on conversion therapy. Is this what Labour means by a "full, trans-inclusive ban on conversion practices"?

Polish to Police Topless sunbathers (nudyści na celowniku policji)

category international | miscellaneous | other press author Saturday June 23, 2007 00:18author by telly tubby twins Report this post to the editors

Na polskie plaże, aby strzec bezpieczeństwa i porządku, właśnie wyruszyło kilkuset policjantów. Z dodatkowym zadaniem od szefów: zwracać uwagę na nudystów. - Opalanie nago w miejscach powszechnie dostępnych jest niedozwolone. Traktujemy to jako nieobyczajny wybryk, a to wykroczenie - mówi Paulina Grzesiowska z Komendy Powiatowej Policji w Nowym Dworze Gdańskim.

( Paulina Grzesiowska of the police in Nowy Dwor Gdanski which is the most popular stretch of Polish beach on the Baltic has announced new application of a law dating from the Communist regime. From now on topless sunbathers or people who bare any other bit of intimate flesh will face fines of 100 zlotys or 25 euros. Prof. Zbigniew Lew-Starowicz a noted sexologist was reported by Warsaw's "metro" newspaper as thinking they're repressed and "not winning any Blue Flags".)

Na razie policjanci wystawiają upomnienia, ale grożą też, że będą mandaty. Za opalanie się bez stanika lub bez slipek grozi nawet stuzłotowa kara. - My ich staramy się nie nękać. Ale skoro skarżą się do nas ludzie, że ktoś opala się z odsłoniętymi np. piersiami, a w pobliżu są dzieci, to musimy interweniować - przyznaje funkcjonariusz policji z komisariatu w Kątach Rybackich.

Policjanci wskazują, że nudyści mają własne wyznaczone plaże. Sęk w tym, że sami nudyści nie wiedzą do końca, które plaże oficjalnie takie są, a które nie. - Policja traktuje więc te miejsca jako dzikie, a my musimy ukrywać się w krzakach - żali się Tomasz, 32-letni prawnik z Warszawy, od dziewięciu lat nudysta. Opala się nago w stolicy nad Wisłą na jednej z trzech plaż ogólnie przyjętych, że są dla nudystów. Ale denerwują go policyjne naloty. - Pływają motorówką. Jak nas wypatrzą, trzeba uciekać, bo inaczej wlepią mandat - mówi.

Prof. Zbigniew Lew-Starowicz: - Niestety, w Polsce nie wiadomo dlaczego, nudyzm wciąż budzi zgorszenie. A problem jest duży, bo praktycznie nie ma oficjalnych plaż dla nudystów. Opalają się więc, gdzie popadnie. Apelowałbym do policji o więcej zrozumienia dla nich - mówi seksuolog.

This may seem wholly unconnected but the enlargement process of the EU is set to
continue. The 'exhaustive 48 hours negotitians' ended with a compromise settlement
which was partly responsible for the agreed document. Two countries had brought
public objections to the table: Poland (see above) and UK (we all await the conversion
of Blair, to the New Creationist Mythology- AKA 'Muscular' Roman Catholicism).
There will be an Irish Referendum in 2008, in which Bertie's enlargment project,
he started it will gain pace. For this we expect that the issues will be diluted and no-one will know
what is beneath the dotted line. The partners in Government rigourously opposed the NICE II
project. Anyway the cabinet has been constructed in such a way that if the Green betray the
FF programme for Government , a minority will be able to continue for the remaining four years!
The Greens are actually not needed at all- just to be shafted and used for issues that FF
cannot get their heads around.
Poland has introduced the 'Lustration Law' - its a cleansing/purging of ex-communists.
They have attempted Abortion issues- and failed.
They are quietly tormenting homosexuals.
They stopped all negotiations on enlargement.

Details of the compromise which satisfyed the poison dwarfs of Europe are not published
yet. Putin , also has been remarkably quiet , given the encroachments into the former Soviet
Union territories.

48 hours of wrangling with 'the twins' and Poland has a deal!
One new referendum for the Irish (2008)
People with obvious religious and body problems , including fear of bikinis are
driving the EU.

How proud we are of our lightning negotiation team (with Charlie Mc Creevy Pulling the strings
in the rear) and France really quiet on all the weirdness.

Don't think the polish/English police will lift me for my 32AA figure sunbathing!!!! Blair is now going tomake millions in that EU business
Ireland will say No, because they said no before. Prices here before the EU thing were 200% lower, now One slice of Ham in Tescos is €1 & a Banana the same.
I'm off now scavvoging for some food, as the minimum wage is €2 per hour here.How will I survive???????????

The reason is not stretch marks, beer bellies, pendulous bits, melanomas, tattoos or shaved bits.

The Polish Reich will co-host the 2012 Eurocup for Soccer with the Ukraine but doesn't have any good stadiums & the roads are crap too & everything is crumbling post-Soviet style. It all makes sense. Honour. Pride. Vanity. But not much in the way of zlotys & a load of criminals who need teaching the old fashioned way.

of course it isn't woe really. Poland will use EU guidelines on prisoner rehabilitation to make it all squeeky clean & proper.
