As lead negotiator for the new EU Directive to combat
https://nitter.cz/search?q=%23VAW
I am disappointed & angry that
https://nitter.cz/EUCouncil
have decided to omit the crime of rape based on the lack of consent in this piece of legislation aimed at protecting women in Europe 🇪🇺-it is shameful.
My position explained ⤵️

R to @FitzgeraldFrncs: The European Parliament & my MEP colleagues from across the political spectrum find this rejection from the Council totally unacceptable.

The blame clearly lies with both the French & German governments who are not willing to vote in favour of the inclusion of rape as a crime.
