"Mr President, this morning the press tells us that you complained that you had to get up at 4 a.m. in order to get to Strasbourg to do business here. I do hope you think it is worthwhile getting up that early. I would like to know on behalf of my colleagues who have just taken the memorial last flight from London Gatwick to Strasbourg what you are doing about this situation? Baroness Ludford has already raised this matter. You have no doubt been in touch with the mayor of Strasbourg; many of us have written to the Mayor of Strasbourg. If Strasbourg is to be taken seriously as a place where the European Parliament does business, and welcomes not only Members from that Parliament and new Members but also business people and the press of the world, then it has to do something about the flights to Strasbourg from London. What is happening? Will we in fact find ourselves on the memorial last flight from Strasbourg to London on Thursday? If so, that is very sad, not least for Strasbourg itself, which has absolutely no hope of getting the backing of any British Members in its future role as one of the places where the European Parliament meets."@en1
