lpv:spoken text	". Mr President, I believe this report is a long and drawn-out justification for the creation of a European public prosecutor. Indeed, judging by Mr Casaca’s tone, he is positively affronted to find that the law of a Member State should ever prevail over the Commission: heaven forbid! According to this document, to get round the problem we should create a law officer with authority to overrule the laws of Member States. This is to be done ‘in the interests of a more joined-up procedure’, and the other vital reason quoted is to help reduce complexity. As a staunch defender of the national state, I strongly oppose the creation of a European public prosecutor and anyone in this Chamber who sincerely believes in democracy rather than just paying it lip service should oppose it too. I particularly call upon MEPs from my country to stand with me in defence of British law."@en1
