lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I would say to the Taoiseach that words matter and the words that have not been quoted from his speech I will now quote. I think they reflect his standing and his government’s approach to the Presidency of the European Union: ‘We have discharged our presidential duty’. I think many in this House should listen to those words and reflect on them. I congratulate the Taoiseach and those on his team who have worked hard for the European Union and discharged their duties to very good effect. Because words matter, I think also we must reflect on the words of Ms Anderson. She may be wearing the green today, but it is only on the outside. I regard her comments with the contempt they deserve, and I go back to congratulate our Presidency: Minister Creighton, Tánaiste Eamon Gilmore, Minister Coveney. I was one of the few negotiators from this Parliament on the common agricultural policy, on which full respect was given to this Parliament’s new codecision powers and where we got a political agreement. In relation to the other policies, the Presidency worked meticulously to deliver for the European Union, so it should be proud of its work, but to those who are coming afterwards, to the Lithuanian Presidency, I would say do not worry – there is still a great deal of work to be done! That is exactly what the European Union is about: constant ongoing work for citizens. Do not mind the headline-grabbers like Cohn-Bendit, who did not even sit through the debate, or Ms Anderson, who was so negative; the Irish Presidency has done great work."@en1
