lpv:translated text	"Madam President, this year marks the fiftieth anniversary of the European Convention on Human Rights. I feel that the present Charter is nothing but a poor imitation in that it raises legal concerns such as the point in Article 2, Paragraph 2, where it states “No one shall be condemned to the death penalty, or executed”. But how can anybody be executed if they have not first been condemned to death? The phrase is excessive, superfluous, absurd! Then it mentions religious rites without establishing any restrictions. For example, the Italian Constitution lays down the limits of public morality and the European Convention lays down the limit of the rights of others and public safety. Are satanic or orgiastic rights permitted or not? This is not clear at all. Then, on the political side, it fails to recognise the right of the self-determination of peoples, and there is no clear definition protecting the natural family. Finally, I feel that, while this procedure which prevents not only any parliament but also the European Parliament amending the Charter, and even prevents it amending the draft decision, on the one hand proclaims the citizens' rights, on the other, it denies the rights of the citizens' representatives, of the Members of this Parliament, who are not even allowed to table an amendment. This is why, since I am in favour of the Europe of the citizens, I do not feel fully represented by this Charter, and I will therefore not vote for the motion."@en1
