From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wojciech Wierzejski (pronounced [ˈvɔjtɕɛx vʲɛˈʒɛjskʲi], born on 6 September 1976 in Biała Podlaska) is a Polish politician and former Member of the European Parliament for Warsaw with the Liga Polskich Rodzin, part of the Independence and Democracy group, and sits on the European Parliament's Committee on Constitutional Affairs.

Wierzejski was a substitute for the Committee on Culture and Education and a member of the Delegation for relations with Belarus.

One month before the 2006 Warsaw GLBT parade, he remarked: "If the deviants will start demonstrating, they need to be bashed with a thick stick."[1] He specifically threatened German politicians who might join the march. These comments caused public focus in Poland and throughout Europe.^[1]
