"Mr President, an initial observation: there is one Member who sits on these benches and who speaks a language which is not his own. He could surely do with some English lessons, so that at least somebody may understand him. But what I wanted to refer to, Mr President, was the issue which Mr Barón Crespo, President of the Socialist Group, mentioned, in other words, the event of the seventh. We have seen today that the Council has taken a unilateral decision to organise an event to launch the debate on the future of the European Union on the seventh. And it has done so, as we have seen today, without the knowledge of the President of the Commission, and taking his name in vain. The President said that she was going to consider the issue, and I believe that, in view of what has been heard here, it would be better if the European Parliament did not attend that event, which is nothing more than a marketing stunt, and I would also ask the Commission not to attend. If we wish to debate the future of the European Union – that great public debate which must take place – we must do so from the outset on the basis of a consensus between the three institutions."@en1
