lpv:translated text	". I emphatically voted against this report. Needless to say, we are all opposed to people being discriminated against on the basis of their disability, sexual orientation and such like. The question is only whether Europe should be involved in this. I do not think so. Measures to tackle discrimination should remain the exclusive competence of the Member States. Consequently, I voted in favour of Amendment 81 which observes that the relevant proposal for a directive seriously erodes the principle of subsidiarity. Quite apart from that, this report also contains many recommendations that run counter to the elementary democratic principle and the principle of the rule of law. To give but one example, while this report encourages people not to discriminate on account of belief, it allows explicit discrimination on the basis of political belief."@en1
