Jakub and David, who returned with the flag at **St Peter’s Square** several times last week, came to the Vatican from Poland to draw the Pope’s attention to what is happening in their country.

Jakub and David said: *‘Polish bishops call us paedophiles, they say we are a disease and even Covid-19 is a punishment for LGBTQ+ sins.*

*‘Our local authorities, inspired by the Catholic Church, create ‘LGBTQ+ Free Zones’ in Poland. We believe that all these actions don’t go along with Pope Francis’ teaching so we did it to encourage him to take action.’*
