Rather funny story from Pinknews.co.uk about Polish councillor Michal Grzes, who is angry that Poznan Zoo has acquired an elephant he believes is gay.
"We didn't pay 37 million zlotys (£7.6 million) for the largest elephant house in Europe to have a gay elephant live there."
What a sad little man. I'm not keen on zoos, but if an elephant wants to be gay, why can't he be gay? So what if he doesn't have children. He's still a lovely elephant for people to look at.
Some other instances of homophobia by Polish politicans are also documented in the story, including former childrens rights watchdog and member of the anti-gay and League of Polish Families Ewa Sowinska's concern that the Teletubbies (remember them? They've disappered from modern culture along with Mondeo Man) could affect children with "camp antics".
A Day In Hand, which launches on May 17, has been set up to oppose this kind of ignorant bigotry.
