"Mr President, I have seen and heard homophobia vaguely, on TV and so on, but listening to some of our Polish colleagues speak here today, especially Mr Roszkowski, Mr Pęk, Mr Giertych and Mrs Krupa, well that is homophobia if anything is! It is absolutely
stuff!
I am glad that I have a
of good, sensible, rational Polish friends, because if that is liberal history, then for goodness sake, I do not want to see what right-wing conservativism is!
Sorry about that. To me this resolution is about four things. It is about the fight against racism, xenophobia, anti-Semitism and homophobia.
First, we already have a resolution on homophobia, which was signed by all of the political parties, and I am indeed very glad about that.
Second, it is clear that racist violence has increased in Europe and we cannot just sit down and watch it. We need action. We need action from the Commission, as Mrs in ‘t Veld said, and we need action, as many have said, from the Finnish Presidency.
My third and final point is that when I came here I thought that the resolution should not name any countries or political parties. I am still trying to believe that it should not do so, but if someone wanted to put the country of Poland into this resolution, I think that after hearing this debate there is no question as to why it was done. Because I am a big friend of Poland, I still think it should come out."@en1
