". Under the pretext of reinforcing the operational capacities of Eurojust in the fight against various forms of crime, this proposal’s main objective is to pander to the obsession with political correctness of proponents of the thought police. The thinly disguised aim is the monitoring of all remarks under threat of penalty, whether they are made in writing or spoken at meetings. Various speakers in this House have already called for the adoption of a framework directive to condemn as criminal offences alleged acts of racism and xenophobia and, with a view to ensuring the speedy transposition of such a directive into national law, to establish a single European Public Prosecutor – the EU’s new Torquemada of ‘political correctness’. Regrettably, the more the European Parliament, an institution which proclaims itself to be the temple of democracy, gains decision-making powers, the more fundamental freedoms – particularly the freedom of research, opinion and expression – are flouted. In fact, this totalitarian Europe is far more dangerous than the ‘monsters’ which it claims to be fighting. The primary objective of the proponents of Euro-globalist and immigrationist ideology is to rid themselves of troublesome opponents by adopting repressive European criminal legislation. We do not accept this."@en1
