EUROPEAN NEURODIVERGENT AND DISABILITY RIGHTS ACT Version 2
-
And once again Mr Trympov lies or either misunderstands about the bill. There is no stopping people getting hearing aids or treatment to help deafness for example and there has been an amendment proposed to solve the issue for those no mentally capable of voting which of course he ignores and you won't have to adapt every private residence but developers will have to adapt their properties to disabled if its possible which is essential to ensure access to good quality housing for the disabled.
On consulting disabled and neurodivergent and minorities this should always be done anyway to ensure discriminatory policies do not get passed accidentally or indeed on purposely.This isn't about dividing people into groups it is however about ensuring people get their needs met and are not discriminated against based on a disability or neurodivergence they are born with or gain, it is often said a society is to be judged by how it helps its downtrodden and those with extra need, I am afraid Pravoslaviya has found itself wanting on this aspect.I suggest Pravoslaviya needs to join the civilised world that treats minorities, lgbtqia+ and women with respect as several times now they've opposed any protections for those groups

Excuse me. Quiet.
You know what, you are probably the single worst person in this chamber, OK? You're actually worse than the Austrian councillor and Van Halen, and believe me, there's a lot of material there.
Pravoslaviya is the most civilised country in this region, because actually, we treat people all equal, all the same, OK? We love everybody, except maybe globalists, but that's fine. We judge our society on how we treat everybody, not just special interest groups. What Johnson Farage and the globalist elite want is special treatment, protections, for different groups, so we're all separated, and we all have different politics, based on what our groups are. It's migrants and minorities first politics, folks, and it's so wrong, and it's going to tear our regions apart, and our countries apart. We can't have it.
And folks, you look at this bill, OK? Johnson Farage says you can still treat disabilities like deafness. The bill says 'member states shall ban the use of conversion therapy on neurodivergent and disabled people'. What does it say 'conversion therapy' is? It says 'therapy used to purportedly cure neurodivergent and disabled people of their neurological conditions or their disability'.
And then, Johnson Farage says oh, homeowners won't have to make their houses accessible for wheelchairs, just developers. And folks, I'm a property developer, I know how much that costs, and trust me, you don't want to know, and your taxpayers really don't want to know, OK? But what about homeowners? You've got what Johnson Farage says. And then you've got the bill, that says, and this is even after we pass the amendments, 'all public facilities and commercial areas, offices, and residential areas, public or private, shall be required to be accessible by wheelchair'.
If we pass this bill, we can't use Johnson Farage's words to say oh, actually, the bill doesn't mean what it says. It's there in law, the words are written down, and the courts have to decide on that, and doctors and homeowners have to take that into account, OK? Johnson Farage keeps calling me a liar, folks, he's the real liar, you understand? We cannot pass this bill.
