Draft opinion
Paragraph 2
2. Considers it regrettable that the idea that human rights are universal, indivisible and interrelated is a principle of law that remains more theory than practice, given that different aspects of human identity are treated separately in existing EU legal instruments; stresses that discrimination and hate do not manifest themselves separately, that human rights are indivisible, that our identities are plural and that we cannot split rights or indeed ourselves; emphasises that multiple discrimination is a reality for many individuals living in the EU, which needs to be recognised by EU lawthere is a lack of legal clarity and certainty regarding multiple discrimination, which needs to be tackled at an EU level given that existing rules and standards remain fragmented across Member States;
