EU TENSIONS ERUPT: Hungary's Orban savages European 'INQUISITION' over Poland courts row

The bill, sponsored by the ruling Law and Justice party (PiS), was passed by Poland’s Senate on Saturday despite one of the biggest protests since the PiS came to power in late 2015. Like Mr Orban, PiS leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski has been a staunch critic of the EU and has repeatedly accused Brussels of showing disrespect for the democratic freedoms of member states. European Council President Donald Tusk, a former Polish centrist prime minister and arch-adversary of PiS, said he had asked President Andrzej Duda for an urgent meeting about the "political crisis" in the country. Mr Tusk said in a statement that PiS moves on courts were backward , went "against European standards and values", harmed Poland's reputation and risked marginalising the country. Thousands of Poles have hit the streets to protest the bill He said: “It falls to us, together, to avert bleak outcomes which could ultimately lead to the marginalisation of Poland in Europe… The situation, includ...

Almost a decade ago, Judy Caplan Peters’s four-year-old made an announcement that would shake their family’s values to its core. “Mommy,” the little one said, hand on chest as if to recite the pledge of allegiance, “I’m a boy.” A simple enough statement except that, up until that moment, her child had been raised a girl. Sander*, as he’s known now, had been born with a girl’s anatomy, went by a girl’s name, and dressed in girls’ clothes. His mother did not try to argue him out of it. She’d seen the signs, beginning with the phone calls from school advising that her child refused to sit with the girls when the students were divided by gender. Or saying that Sander had a headache, a stomachache, or just wasn’t feeling well and wanted to come home. She knew Sander was not happy on some fundamental level, which, for her, meant she did not have a choice in the matter. “You either love your child for who they ...
