Endnu en gang har Parlamentets medlemmer ignoreret, at de er repræsentanter for Europas borgere, har ladet deres opfattelser styre af deres staters regeringer og er paradoksalt nok endt med at blive overhalet af de ansvarlige statspolitikere.
Once again, the Members of the majority in this Parliament have ignored their responsibility as representatives of the European citizens, have subordinated their positions to those of their governments and, paradoxically, have let themselves be bested by the political representatives of their own States.
