"Mr President, I would like to mention just one name. A Commission official by the name of Marco Buti made the following reply in an Ecofin meeting when he was told that the German banks had said that Portugal, Ireland and Greece would not be able to repay their debts in this way. Our colleague or comrade Marco Buti – an ayatollah, if you prefer that to the word Taliban, a neoliberal ayatollah, I am happy to correct myself – said: If anyone in my Commission were to submit these figures to me, he would be dismissed immediately. That is what I call an ayatollah. This is a person who puts religion before reality and many neoliberal officials in the Commission do just this. Reality is one thing, but with their ideology, they will destroy Europe. That is all I wanted to say."@en1
