"Mr President, I wish I could thank the rapporteurs for the report but, yet again, they have not confronted the elephant in the room: Islam. The most comprehensive study of British Muslims – and I would say Muslims in Europe, actually – ever conducted, by Trevor Phillips, the former chairman of the Commission for Racial Equality, draws some very disturbing conclusions, particularly for the Socialists in this House and the members of the Committee on Women's Rights and Gender Equality.
39% of British Muslims say that a woman must always obey her husband and submit to chastisement from him. More than half of Muslims think lesbian and gay relationships should be illegal. More than 100 000 British Muslims said that they had sympathy for people who take part in suicide bombings. Only one out of three would report to the police if they knew someone was supporting terrorism in Syria. A quarter would like Sharia law to take precedence over English law. We are currently not talking about a tiny minority. Unfortunately, these are widespread views among the Muslim communities in the UK. I think the so-called refugees on our borders need to be repatriated to Muslim countries, as their values are clearly incompatible with our liberal western democracies. This will avoid the current clash of cultures that denigrates the achievements of Western civilisation and flouts the protection of women, the gay community and vulnerable children, who are being attacked by Muslim gangs and migrants who deplore our way of life."@en1
