EU splashes taxpayer cash 'on lipstick lessons and lacy lingerie for men'
The European Union spent almost €1 million funding drag queen shows and other diversity projects aimed at "blurring" traditional gender roles, The Telegraph can disclose.
The bloc’s taxpayers’ stumped up some €892,050 to help finance the schemes, which promised to tackle issues such as “toxic masculinity'' and to establish LGBT-friendly schools across the Continent.
The battle over woke ideology has become a key political divide between the EU's founding members and the nationalist governments in central and eastern Europe.
The cultural split has left Hungary and Poland at loggerheads with the European Commission and Western member states, prompting fears in Budapest and Warsaw their EU funding could be cut in the row over conservative policies on LGBT rights and abortion.
The revelation over the spending prompted accusations that Brussels is “hell-bent on pursuing a woke agenda”.
