lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I had not intended to ask to speak today. Political freedom involves allowing the expression of opinions that we find disagreeable. Today, I hear speakers who are unwilling to hear a Member of this House say what his electors expect of him. I think that Mr Gorostiaga has been elected to show that there is another side to what others are saying concerning the Basque country, and that is what he is doing, whether we agree with him or not. I might add that I have not heard him inciting people to commit murder, something that marks a line which none may cross, but I do plead for tolerance for divergent opinions with which we do not agree. It is only on that basis that Parliament is able to function."@en1
