"Mr President, I do not wish to take up too much of your time. I simply wish to remind my fellow Members of an event of major European significance that began on 23 October 1956. I am referring, of course, to the revolution in Hungary. Unfortunately, it is sometimes misused by extremists, such as today’s demonstrations by Jobbik and by Nick Griffin, a homophobic extremist from the British National Party. This was a major and very important event in European history, along with the Berlin uprising and the Prague Spring, of course. We should not let this day pass without remembering all those who fought bravely in a revolution which, tragically, was crushed by Soviet troops. Even so, it was an important symbol of freedom in Europe. As the European Union is now a Nobel Peace Prize laureate, it is important to commemorate this day."@en1
