"Mr President, concerning the Ugandan bill which has provoked such indignation amongst us, I very much welcome the fact that the Members of the different parliamentary groups in the House who have taken the floor on this subject have spoken with one voice. I believe this is indicative of unanimity across the Chamber. I have asked for the floor simply to add my voice to theirs before voting accordingly later. I support Mr Cashman, the authors and group spokespersons. My reasons are that the fight against intolerance, discrimination and, in this case, also homophobia and the death penalty, requires us to be very firm and call upon the Commission and the Council to be firm too. We must persevere until we succeed in bringing about the withdrawal of this iniquitous bill. Taking the bill forward would be tantamount to returning Uganda to colonial conditions."@en1
