"Mr President, I have been a socialist in Italy and in international organisations for 30 years. When I was re-elected to this Parliament in June 1999, I naturally joined the Group of the Party of European Socialists. On 30 June 2000, at the end of a meeting of the
Bureau, of which I was a member but where a few close colleagues discussed my case, in my absence and without my knowledge, Mr Barón Crespo informed me that I had excluded myself from his group. I did not even receive a courtesy reply to my protest. Clearly, Mr Barón Crespo feels that Italian Socialists may not be part of the Group of the Party of European Socialists. One must either be a former Communist, such as Veltroni, or the satellite of a former Communist, such as Boselli. This is the story of the Italian left, the story of the cuckoo: the ex-Communist cuckoo which, when its world crumbles, lays its eggs in the nests of other birds and, thanks to the mother's failure to care for her eggs, is able to eat the eggs which were originally in the nest."@en1
