"Madam President, it is a pleasure to see you back in the chair. We occasionally get these messages coming out of the Commission that the EU is doing enough. It should do less, but do it better, concentrate on the really big things. And then we have all these motions on things like what pets we are allowed to take where. I think there is an issue of proportionality here is there not? Countries have different national conditions. Our country is an island without land borders and we are perfectly capable of reaching sensible proportionate bilateral or multilateral agreements with each other. Do we really think that we would be better off creating a new administrative bureaucracy in the hands of the same geniuses who brought us the common agricultural policy, the common fisheries policy, the unaudited budgets and all of the rest of the apparatus of acquired EU law? Surely this is something that could be left to the Member States."@en1
