Fermoy has threatened to sever its twinning relationship with a Polish town over the latter's anti-LGBT+ stance.

The north cork town's municipal district council has told its counterpart, Nowa Deba, that it has suspended the twinning relationship between the two and will sever it entirely if it does not change its position by mid-September.
