description: "Cyrus Engerer is a former Maltese Member of European Parliament representing the Labour Party. A gay rights activist, he was a spokesperson for the Yes campaign at the 2011 Maltese divorce referendum. In 2021, he was tasked with negotiating the European Parliament's historic resolution on the declaration of the European Union as an LGBTQ Freedom zone, in reaction to the establishment of so called \"LGBT-Free zones\" in Poland. Engerer later went on to write the European Parliament's resolution which condemned the laws in Hungary which effectively banned \"LGBT propaganda\" in the vicinity of schools. From 2014 till 2019, Engerer was the Prime Minister's special envoy to the European Union. He was elected as a Member of the European Parliament in November 2020. After he joined the Labour Party, the Police of Malta opened an investigation against him, leading to his father's arrest, the opening of a court case against him on spreading pornography, and the arrest of his mother on election day. He himself was convicted for spreading revenge porn and received a suspended two years term imprisonment. He is the partner of Malta’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations in Geneva, Ambassador Randolph De Battista."
