lpv:spoken text	". Mr President, since my party, the UK Independence Party, came to this Parliament in 1999 and returned in more force in 2004, we have established the first genuine opposition to the process of European political integration. My concern is that the proposed measures may be used to try to stifle the voice of national independence and opposition to the European Union. If that is the case, it will not succeed. However, I should like to offer some constructive suggestions to improve the proceedings. Firstly, the presiding Presidents should ensure that speakers are kept to their allotted time: pro-EU speakers are given much more leeway to overrun than anti-EU speakers. Secondly, during the vote some presiding Presidents need to slow down a little. In that way we might have time to vote properly. At the same time, the Presidents might not make so many glaring mistakes in estimating the vote and there would be less call for electronic checks."@en1
