Tens of thousands of people marched in Warsaw's Pride parade on Saturday to demand equality for LGBT people ahead of Polish elections.

The country's right-wing government, which is seeking re-election, has focused on opposing what it calls "LGBT ideology" in previous campaigns.

But Warsaw's mayor vowed that the LGBTQ community would "always be safe".

"And I hope that you all will be safe in Poland," Rafal Trzaskowski, from the liberal opposition party, told crowds.

"We want to show that today diversity, minority rights means Europe that is open, Europe that is tolerant," he said at a press conference before the march.
