lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, I do not know whether I am in order or not. I have not made a written application for an explanation of vote. But if I may just very briefly reply to my good friend and colleague, Mr Heaton-Harris, I think we all have our own points of view about the value of the European institutions, but I do not think it is fair to attack the European Union, national governments, local government, for being interested or disinterested in the question of the disabled and sport. I have many examples in my constituency where the European Union quite frankly has brought enormous benefits to people – disabled and, indeed, not disabled. I just think it is unfair to attack any institution in that way. I think all of us want to do what we can to encourage sport, to encourage everybody to take a fair part. Whether you are pro-European or anti-European, that is another issue."@en1
