They were to be held at the same time, closely to the route of the march Queer Parade. In such cases, the law only allows to permit the first announced rally, which was the homosexuals' march, Burian said. Disagreement with the march was to be voiced by the National Party (NS) and the civic group National Renewal Action 99. Protests are also planned by other groups, but they have not announced them to the authorities. "The march's goal is nothing but pressure About 30,000 join Czech health workers's strike - union ...
Former Czech Communist Party leader not to run for chairman ...
Putin defends missiles at parade ... on the majority.
The disgusting pressure aims to make society accept adoption of children by homosexual couples," the NS said in its statement. Tomas Vandas, chairman of the extreme right Workers' Party, has called on the Workers' Party Protection Units to be on alert. The gays' march will set out from the namesti Svobody square on June 28, at 14:00. It will go through the town centre and two hours later, it will return to the square. It is expected to be attended by about 300 people. "We are convinced that the march will be similar to the quiet Polish march, it will not be as full of dancing as those in America," organiser Jolana Navratilova has told journalists. The Brno march will be the first of its type in the Czech Republic. The "rainbow marches" were established in the USA in the 1970s.
