"Madam President, I understand that you will shortly be announcing the decision of the French Government to terminate my mandate as a Member of the European Parliament.
I believe that this is a grave injustice and a penalty which is out of all proportion to the minor incidents which served as a pretext for it. I received no notice in order to prepare my defence. I was not permitted to waive my parliamentary immunity and I did not have the benefit of any of the defences that even a guilty party would have.
I believe that the European Parliament has the opportunity in this case to, perhaps, demonstrate its ability to come to the defence of its own dignity."@en1
