French Monument to Polish Pope May be Moved to Poland – PM Tells PAP
Polish Press Agency (PAP) ^ | 10/28/17

The government will endeavor to "save from censorship" a statue of Pope John Paul II in France.” We will offer to transfer it to Poland, provided that we receive the consent of the French authorities and the local community, " said Prime Minister Beata Szydlo.

The reference is to a monument to Polish-born Pope John Paul II in the municipality of Ploermel in Brittany. By a decision of the Council of State, the supreme administrative judicial body in France, a cross must be removed from the statue.

“John Paul II said the lesson from history is that democracy without values often transforms itself into an overt or disguised totalitarianism," the prime minister commented to PAP. "Our great Pole, a great European, is a symbol of a Christian, united Europe."

"The dictate of political correctness, the secularization of the state, introduces values which are culturally unknown to us, and which lead to a terrorisation of the daily lives of Europeans,” she underlined.

Never in history have I been more proud of MY PRIME MINISTER thanin these days.

Btw, to some American ignorants: Polish alphabet is read in 90% like in the Latin language

This means: Beata - is pronounced "beata (like Beatus John Paul), not bi:ta, or so.

And her surname: Sz=sh + y read like "i" + dlo = she'duoh ,

Never "ZIDLO", or such a bulshit! Oh, it makes me sick listening to the way Americans read not English words!!!

Remember: BEATA SZYDLO (beh`atah she`dwoh)
