lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, in the eyes of the EU all rights are equal but some are more equal than others. In any democracy the political rights – freedom of expression, freedom of assembly and electoral rights – should be pre-eminent. Why? Because they are the key to all the others: their recognition, their extent and their limitations. Indeed many of the personal rights were established only with the exercise of these political rights. However, the EU regards the personal rights – chosen or determined behaviour, freedom from constraint, prohibition of discrimination, freedom of movement – to be paramount. If there should be a conflict between, say, freedom of expression and one of these personal rights, freedom of expression would be the loser. What they are really saying is that the political rights were simply vehicles for campaigning for their range of personal rights. Once these have been elevated to the status of having self-evident virtue, the political rights have served their use and have become redundant."@en1
