Trafne pytanie @KotulaKat o liczbę spraw, które trafiło do @RzeczPacjenta dotyczących łamania praw pacjentki ws. aborcji i jakie były efekty interwencji RPP. RPP nie ma danych przy sobie. Obiecuje dostarczyć.
Przedstawicielka @federapl: "Szpitale reagują dopiero na pisma prawniczek, by przerwać ciążę. Ale nie raportują zabiegów. Godzinę temu udana interwencja Federy w #Czestochowa. I gwarantuję, że to nie jest ostatnia dzisiaj"

Quando molti Italiani affermano sprezzanti (a volte con un filo di razzismo): "L'Italia non è la Polonia" per sottolineare una presunta superiorità del nostro Paese, mi viene spesso da sorridere amaramente. Ancora di più quando vedo Varsavia oggi 👇

In primis, la Polonia è un paese con una società civile molto più attiva e politicamente consapevole dei propri problemi di quella Italiana. Dallo sciopero delle donne #StrajkKobiet alle manifestazioni per lo Stato di Diritto. IL quasi milione di persone a Varsavia lo prova.

In più, hanno un'opposizione europeista, moderna e aperta alle sfide del futuro. Politici come Trzaskowski & Tusk hanno una credibilità internazionale che la nostra opposizione non ha mai avuto.

A 37yo woman has died in #Poland after being denied an abortion after one of her twin fetuses died. Doctors waited until the vital functions of the other twin flatlined on their own a week later, Agnieszka T's family said. h/t @mokomokai #AniJednejWięcej macaubusiness.com/rights-groups-…
Agnieszka T is the second woman known to have died as a result of a restriction of Poland’s abortion law. #AniJednaWiecej
Agnieszka T died on Tuesday. Thursday marks a year since #Poland banned access to abortion in almost all circumstances, which @hrw & rights groups say has had a devastating impact on the lives of women and all those in need of abortion care hrw.org/news/2022/01/2… #AniJednaWiecej
#Tomorrow the Polish Parliament will debate the ‘Stop Abortion’ bill that would establish a TOTAL BAN on abortion in #Poland and criminalize individuals that receive care. #StrajkKobiet
Poland has long had one of the most restrictive abortion laws in Europe. It is one of only two EU member states that has not legalized abortion on request or broad grounds.
As attacks on #reproductiverights have intensified in the country, so too have attacks against civil society organizations and women human rights defenders.
Protests in Warsaw after the death of a woman who was refused an abortion under Poland’s abortion ban

Almost exactly a year ago: protests in #Warsaw against near-total abortion ban. They were largest protests in #Poland since fall of Communism in 1989. And their core message was “Fuck off” to priests and the far-right govt #StrajkKobiet #AborcjaBezGranic
When the fascist fucks in your country use a pandemic to tighten their grip on your body with a near total ban on abortion, the path to freedom must be paved with profanity. Politeness is capitulation.

1/. A year ago, Poland introduced a near-total ban on abortion.
@amnesty warned women & girls would pay high price.
This weekend, unconfirmed reports suggest a woman died in circumstances where her death might have been prevented had she had access to abortion. #AniJednejWięcej

2/. This reported death comes just weeks after @amnesty & other organisations including @hrw @AbortionSupport @CIVICUSMonitor @ReproRights @federapl @strajkkobiet warned that the abortion ban was “causing incalculable harm to women & girls in #Poland.”

It was decriminalised in South Korea (2021), Argentina (2020), Ireland (2019)

For #IWD2021 we want to draw attention to what is currently happening in Poland. Here is a thread to explain the situation. #StrajkKobiet
Last October, a ruling by the Polish Constitutional Tribunal in October declared that a 1993 law allowing abortions in the case of severe foetal abnormalities was unconstitutional.
Even before this ruling, Poland's abortion restrictions were among the strictest in the EU –– only slightly less restrictive than countries with total bans, like Malta and San Marino.
In condemning the "illegal ruling" by Poland's constitutional court to ban #abortion, @MEugeniaRPalop says such criminalisation is "a violation of #WomensRights."
"It is part of an international, far-right conservative objective: to destroy gender equality."

"Women have the right to decide over their own bodies - a #HumanRight that cannot be violated," says @nvillumsen.
"In spite of mass street protests, by pushing through the #abortion ban with the help of illegitimate judges, the Polish government has violated EU #RuleOfLaw."
"In spite of mass street protests, by pushing through the #abortion ban with the help of illegitimate judges, the Polish government has violated EU #RuleOfLaw."
Describing Poland's #abortionban as "illegal & regressive", @deppcppeguengl's Sandra Pereira says it "goes against the dignity of women & their reproductive health rights."
"This ban also hits the most disadvantaged women in our society the hardest."

Because of massive protests organized by Women’s Strike - the largest protests in #Polamd since the fall of communism - the new restrictions on abortion were delayed theguardian.com/world/2020/nov… #StrajkKobiet
Enforcers of patriarchal fuckery are a fascist trinity comprised of far-right groups, the police, and the church. The first two worked in unison to block and remove women’s rights protestors who tried to enter churches, the third played the civility card.
Far-right groups have attacked protesters, and government figures stoke the tensions. Ruling far-right party leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski Jarosław Kaczyński, told people they should “defend churches” from the protesters after some were defaced. #StrajkKobiet

Daily protests organized by Women’s Strike, chant “fuck off,” hold massive banners telling right-wing populist Law & Justice (PiS) govt to “Get the fuck out” & “PiS off,” & carry rainbow pride flag in recognition of dovetailing of feminist & LGBTQ resistance to fascist fuckery.
"A video posted from the northern #Polish city of Szczecinek showed young women surrounding a priest and yelling at him to “Go back to the church” and to “Fuck off.”"

Protestors against new abortion restrictions have been chanting “Fuck off” and telling the right-wing government to fuck off. And the signs are profane too #Poland

The umbrellas were used during the Black Protest a few years ago and there are rainbows because the sex ed ban is targetting #LGBTI communities mainly. ☂️🏳️🌈
