"Madam President, I wish to thank my own group for allowing this resolution to come this far. It is not often that we discuss urgencies that might be able to change something for the better. We are always very reactionary and talk about things that we really cannot affect.
However, next month, before we sit again in Strasbourg, the European football championship starts. A number of problems have already been raised by people such as the Belgian Police Federation, and there have been many documentaries in various countries about various games and the security arrangements for Euro 2000. I know this is meant to be a human rights issue, and indeed it is about the rights of ordinary people. Every real supporter of football has the right to go to a football game and spectate, and then come away without a threat of violence, without problems on the streets and without being harassed unduly by people we do not particularly like to meet at any time: football hooligans. This is what this motion is about and I very much hope Members will support it."@en1
