"Mr President, first, in raising this point of order, I would like to congratulate you again on an excellent victory last month after a campaign in which I came to greatly respect you.
It is because of this respect that I wish to bring this point of order. In my candidacy for the office of President, I stood in part to protect Rule 20(3) of the Rules of Procedure and to ensure that the President of our Parliament would always be impartial. The Rule in question states that ‘The President may speak in a debate only to sum up or to call speakers to order. Should he wish to take part in a debate, he shall vacate the chair and shall not reoccupy it until the debate is over’.
Regardless of what was said yesterday to Mr Farage, some of which I do not necessarily agree with, I would like your firm assurance that you will respect Rule 20(3) in the future and be the President for all of us, every single Member, regardless of group or nationality."@en1
