".
The rapporteur steered a straight course towards this one-sided and partisan assessment of the situation as regards human rights, choosing to ignore the common interest and the institutional assessment which should guide work in this area. He has fostered an alliance of isolated, minority claims, on the pretext, as convenient as it is vague, of combating ‘discrimination’.
The multifarious libels with which he besmirches the Member States lack any kind of foundation in truth, and are at one with the over-inflated verbiage spouted by organisations of doubtful credibility, engaged in the messianic task of replacing the current social model with a different one.
We are looking at a castle which has been razed in the interests of the widespread obsession with elevating political correctness to the status of a science.
This annual report has been hijacked in order to trumpet causes which unite no social consensus, which contradict and assail eternal principles and values with deep roots in Western civilisation. That means that its presentation and the debate on it have become an exercise in propaganda, a mere glossing and recapitulation
of a sort of template of irresponsible ideas, devoid of the dignity and reflection demanded by the seriousness of this subject. This is a deplorable annual ritual which the European Parliament will have to abandon some day if it wants to retain a minimum level of integrity and responsibility.
I could do nothing other than vote against this report."@en1
