26/01/2023 | 12:58:11 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) We need a new Nuremberg Tribunal. History is repeating itself in the evils perpetrated by Russia in the Ukraine just as Russia and others were the victims of evil perpetrated by the National Socialists of Germany 75 years ago. So let us repeat that history in the way we try the new perpetrators of evil. The Nuremberg trials did not come about by international consensus. No. Just four countries unilaterally declared that we would hold an... 25/01/2023 | 13:06:50 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) I commend the leader of the UK Delegation for this inspired report which deals with a very serious problem which we all ignore. Of course our top concern must be the loss of life. And we have to recognise the reality, as we are seeing in the Ukraine day after day, that armies, soldiers and leaders can be brutal and evil.

In my years serving in this honourable Assembly, I can say the report by Mr Fourat BEN CHIKHA is unique. Unique because I have never before seen such a biased, distorted, utterly wrong work of fiction than his comments about the United Kingdom. If it goes unamended, then we'll bring this Assembly into disrepute. The United Kingdom may not have been amongst the first to decriminalise homosexual acts and permit gay marriage, but we were decades ahead of some other... 21/04/2021 | 12:31:19 Mr President, First of all I am grateful to everyone who has spoken in this excellent debate and I particularly welcome the comments, the unanimous comments from members on my report. I wish to thank Ms Ingjerd SCHOU from Norway, Mr Tiny KOX, Lord George FOULKES, Mr Koloman BRENNER from Hungary, Mr Oleksii GONCHARENKO, Lord Leslie GRIFFITHS from the United Kingdom and Ms Laima Liucija ANDRIKIENĖ from Lithuania, Mr Pierre-Alain FRIDEZ from Switzerland, Ms Nicole TRISSE from France, Mr John...
