lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, this is only the fourth point of order I have raised in nearly eleven years as an MEP, so I hope you will listen. I want to ask you and those others who preside over these sessions to be much more strict about points of order. We lost nearly half-an-hour this morning and many of the points of order that were raised then, and are often raised here, are things that Members have just thought of that they would like to share with others. That hardly constitutes a point of order. I suppose I feel particularly peeved because my own report on e-Europe, which is the only thing from this Parliament before the Lisbon Summit, has been squeezed off to a time when there will be a relatively poor attendance. I ask you – and I echo Mr Watson's point of order – to take those points back to your President and co-Vice-Presidents and ask them to be much tougher. It might make you unpopular in the short-run but I think it would make you loved and admired in the long-run."@en1
