The social democratic Spanish government, consisting of PSOE and Unidad Podemos (UP), has passed a draft law, known as "Trans Law", that will allow citizens aged over 14 to change their gender without evidence.


Under the proposals, citizens will be able to change their name and gender without the need for proof or witnesses. The administrative procedure will also do away with health reports and the need for medical and legal guardianship.

KKE strongly condemns the lynching of Zak Kostopoulos as an "act of barbarity"

In a statement regarding the lynching of social activist Zak Kostopoulos in downtown Athens, the Press Office of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece issued the following statement:

"The incident of Zacharias (Zak) Kostopoulos' brutal beating, which led or contributed to his death, is deeply disturbing. The "lynching", especially against a socially vulnerable person who didn't consist a serious threat to anyone, simply and solely for the suspicion of robbery, as it happened in this case, is not only an unacceptable and condemnable incident, but consists an act of barbarity".
