"Mr President, Baroness Ashton recently went to the Commonwealth meeting in Australia at the taxpayers’ expense.
One of the reasons you gave, Baroness Ashton, was to speak with some Heads of State there. Could you tell us, did you speak to some African Heads of State, maybe Ugandan Heads of State, about homosexuality and its criminalisation there? Hillary Clinton has said that the US is going to give it its utmost priority. I just wondered, did you use that opportunity? And, by the way, how much taxpayers’ money did it cost to go there and why were you at the Commonwealth meeting which has nothing to do with the EU?
Also, I just recently visited Gaza and Ramallah. When I asked about the treatment of lesbian women, the corrective rape, police beatings, etc., they looked at me with disgust as if it was something I should not have asked them or that it was not the EU’s business. Bearing in mind the absolute fortune, the millions of taxpayers’ money from the EU that goes into Gaza, some of which probably gets to Hamas, etc., what are you actively doing to stop these corrective rapes of lesbian women in Gaza?"@en1
