"Mr President, I will not say thank you or express my gratitude to Anni Podimata. What I will say is: very well done because, at a time when the euro is very sick, she has borne the burden of giving the European Parliament an own-initiative report which suggests a cure. The cure it suggests includes a financial transaction tax.
I have heard a lot of people say ‘no’: some have said so politely, others have said so directly. However, I have not heard any alternative proposals and I think that we all want to defend the European Union and the euro. I have also heard talk of a study: however, when I hear proposals for a study, I know in advance that the answer is ‘no’ and that we are just buying time. Do not buy time, Commissioner. Do something straight away. To close the catch-the-eye procedure, I say to you: catch the tax."@en1
