"Mr President, I am already thinking of my press release and I think I shall start by speaking ‘to a packed House’ – although maybe I should just say speaking ‘to a packed interpretation booth’. I appreciate the interpreters for staying on, missing their lunch and listening to these things.
I am an English soccer referee and I therefore fear every Polish politician in this House who wants to kill such a person. However, I was thinking, after watching the football last night – especially the France-Italy game – that maybe the French team should do what their political masters do and completely ignore the result and turn up at the quarter finals anyway, because that is what we are going to do with the Lisbon Treaty in this place.
The reason – and, Mr President, you might wonder how I am going to get to the report, and so do I sometimes – we do not need the Lisbon Treaty is proved within this report. The EU will not grind to a halt without this Treaty. Today we successfully voted on a massive change in institutional organisation in this place – and we did not need an extra treaty to do it."@en1
