"Mr President, I abstained from the final vote on the Svensson report and I am therefore using my explanation of vote to say that I, too, find violence against women to be shocking and totally unacceptable. However, I abstained from the final vote because I believe that this report is absolutely teeming with violations of the principle of subsidiarity, which I cherish, and I do not believe that creating new European bureaucracy, observatories or other bodies is desirable – quite the contrary is true. I am also disturbed, by the way, by the political correctness that results in the failure of the word ‘Islam’ to appear even once in this report even though that faith, with its plethora of backward standards and principles, obviously plays a major role in discrimination and violence against women. That is true in the Islamic world, of course, but sadly also over here. Let us call a spade a spade and Islam, in its real and current state, backward and misogynistic."@en1
