lpv:translated text	". We are all forever deploring the fact that Parliament suffers from an obvious lack of reputation and credibility. As if it were not bad enough that there is no such thing as a ‘European people’ and that it is impossible to transpose the Member States’ current parliamentary practice to the European level, the federalist majority insists on burdening us continually with fulminating reports, which – as I have said many times before – do untold damage to the image of this House. This is true of the annual reports in the EU on human rights, and the report before us this year is no exception. Member States’ police forces are portrayed as ‘militias’ made up of potential torturers; governments are suspected of controlling and manipulating information; there is condemnation of policies aimed at strengthening control of illegal immigration and the inexorable rise of racism and xenophobia. The picture painted by this report is simply astonishing, not to say ridiculous. Add in the fact that the report argues in favour of homosexuality and euthanasia, and it is hardly surprising that reports of this nature do such damage to our standing in the eyes of the citizens."@en1
