lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I want to express my admiration for what I thought was a stylish and rather teasing address from Mr Roche on whether there has really been considerable movement on the IGC issues. We have been reading about the Spanish and Polish Governments possibly shifting their positions, with similar reports about the German Government. The UK press is now saying that Mr Blair and Mr Berlusconi are writing joint letters together – there's friendship for you! – and now we understand that Mr Blair is travelling to Dublin tomorrow for talks with the Taoiseach. As Mr Napoletano said earlier in the debate, it is all very frustrating and unclear for those of us who are outside. All this underlines the importance of restating the demand for democratic legitimacy, something which was conceded by Vice-President Kinnock in the course of his address. I see that as coming through the process of a referendum. Mr Barón Crespo told us that 51% of UK citizens want this Constitution. I might doubt that but, unlike his Labour allies, I am very happy to have the matter tested in a referendum. I can tell you, Mr President, that more than 80% of people in my country agree."@en1
