"Madam President, in my own constituency of London there are many people who feel that there is simply too much law coming from Brussels and far too much EU law. But they are also very upset by the fact that, when we have law, it is not implemented properly and that we implement the rules quite early but other Member States do not.
For example, we can look at the completion of the single market, which is essential if we are going to achieve growth in Europe, rather than simply tighten our belts and cut our spending – although that is also essential to get the budget under control. We want more growth and it is essential that we complete the single market to make sure that our companies can trade across national borders. At the same time, it is also important that countries that are fined by the European Court of Justice actually pay their fines rather than avoid doing so, as the French did when they were blockading British beef. So, if you want to talk about the application of EU law, make sure you are consistent and make sure we all stick to the rules."@en1
