lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, I have voted against this report, as it called for the Commission to bring in a compulsory quota system for women in the workplace. As an MEP who was elected onto my party’s list without a quota and then elected without a quota by the public, I find this demeaning and insulting to all hard-working women up and down the UK. We should live in a meritocratic society where women are encouraged to achieve their goals, and we should address the issues that are keeping women from reaching these goals. We should not treat women as just another number in EU stats, and we certainly should not be forcing businesses and parliaments to have mandatory quotas."@en1
