EU’s role in promoting ‘gay’ agenda is exposed
The EU Commission is a major force in promoting the homosexual agenda in Europe and further afield, a European human rights lawyer has revealed.
In the years 2007 to 2010 the Commission doled out almost E4.2million to the European branch of the International Gay and Lesbian Association (ILGA), according to legal expert J.C. von Krempach.
ILGA is an international organisation promoting acceptance of homosexual behaviour and campaigning for a variety of homosexual “rights”.
In 2004 the group played a leading role in the notorious campaign against the appointment of a Catholic, Professor Rocco Buttiglione, as EU Commissioner for Justice.
Last year alone the EU Commission, using taxpayers’ money, provided the vast bulk of the funding for ILGA-Europe, or more than enough “to pay a very decent salary to 20 full-time employees.”
In 2011 the Commission provided 68.7% of ILGA-Europe’s funding, with a further E50,000 coming from the Dutch government.
The remainder, according to von Krempach, came from three wealthy individuals, George Soros, Sigrid Rausing and an anonymous donor.
“ILGA receives funds from the EU for projects for which they use hardly any funds of their own,” wrote the lawyer.
He added, that “the money is not granted for any specific project, but can be used for whatever ILGA believes might serve the purpose of ‘fighting social exclusion’.”
The arrangement has led to the extraordinary situation where the EU Commission is the largest single funder of a group set up to lobby the Commission itself and the European Parliament.
“There is no trace of any significant financial support from the gays and lesbians whom ILGA-Europe claims to represent,” said von Krempach, writing in the foreign policy blog Turtle Bay and Beyond.
He also looked at the organisation’s budget forecast for 2012 and found a total expected income of €1,950,000. More than €1 million of this will come from the European Commission and €334,000 from the Dutch government.
ILGA is also looking for a further EU grant of E384,000 per year, for the next three years.
Von Krempach suggested that ILGA-Europe is, in fact, an unofficial EU agency. “We might call it political ventriloquism: through this ‘advocacy group’ the Commission speaks to itself,” he wrote.
But the funding also raises questions about ILGA’s standing at the UN where it is accredited to the Economic and Social Committee.
This body requires that “the major portion of the organisation’s funds” should come from non-government sources.
