"Madam President, I could not agree more with the observations made by Mr Wiebenga. The least we can do is to carefully examine once more how we have filled Fridays. But I would add – also because a number of misconceptions have made their way into the media – that I am not one of those people who would like to solve the ‘Strasbourg’ discussion via the back door, but that I do belong to the group of people who want to examine, via a vote, whether we can hold a proper sitting in Strasbourg on a Friday, which also involves our French delegates. I wanted to highlight these two aspects.
But that also means – and I must get this off my chest – that all those Members who criticised me last time because I had levelled criticism at them, must have left the Chamber before 12.00. (The last vote was held after 12.00.) That was very hurtful because, unfortunately, the activists, comprising pro-Europeans from my own country and a large number of anti-Europeans, had left by the time the roll-call vote was held. Reference can be made to the last roll-call vote for this.
Let us examine in a fair manner and through sound discussion how we can fill this part-session."@en1
