Presenting my #AnnualReport2025 @coe.int @pace.coe.int, I warn that we risk losing our invaluable treasure of #HumanRights. In part, their survival depends on how we support #Ukraine 's people, manage migration, and protect civil society & marginalised groups👇

On 5 May, the ERRC urged North Macedonia’s Interior Ministry to answer for the femicide of Ramajana Asan — a young Romani woman killed by her partner after repeated pleas for protection were ignored. Romani women deserve safety. We demand justice. #RomaRights #Justice #femicide

From Ballymena to Bucharest, Europe’s Roma face firebombs, forced evictions, & segregation. Politicians call it “order.” It’s really Europe’s oldest policy of exclusion.

Roma: Europe’s Unwanted Citizens
Anti-Roma violence isn’t isolated. It’s systemic, cross-border, and centuries old. This narrative maps the patterns of hate—from UK riots to French evictions to Czech segregation—and asks: when will Europe truly defend its Roma citizens?

Romania must fucking confront systemic racism against Roma people. Equal access to education, healthcare, and justice is a RIGHT, not a privilege. #RacialJustice #RomaRights

A fair chance benefits everyone.

Roma in Europe still face exclusion—80% live at risk of poverty, and 1 in 4 reported discrimination last year.

📢 Europe must move beyond promises and act.

Glad to exchange with the General Rapporteur on Roma and Travellers, Georgios Stamatis, on the need to raise awareness of the #HumanRights situation of Europe’s largest ethnic minority. Securing sustained commitment and partnerships to advance equality is crucial. #PACEwinter2026 #RomaRights

Bulgaria ignored the European Court of Human Rights and bulldozed Roma homes.
This isn’t just lawlessness—it’s economic sabotage.
Without housing, Roma people can’t plan, save, or thrive.
If their rights fall, yours may be next.
