"I welcome this resolution and was proud to vote for it. Yesterday's debate clearly illustrated how far we have still to go in establishing equality of respect within the EU. Many people have expressed their concern at the homophobic feelings voiced in Parliament’s Chamber. Fortunately, the vast majority of this House rejected these statements and has given a strong voice to criticism of at least two Member States and to racist acts in others. This is a welcome step. Politicians have a crucial role in establishing a climate that rejects violence and hate speech: it is part of establishing an inclusive society. As we are confronting politicians who promote prejudice, we must also do the same when this is done by the media and our institutions. We must face up to the human rights abuses in the EU. This positive vote today is part of that process."@en1
