"Mr President, I believe that, as my fellow Members, Mrs van der Laan and Mrs Malmström, have quite rightly said, this matter is, of course, eminently political. I have been an advocate of Strasbourg for many years, along with my radical colleagues, but I feel that the deterioration in transport links and a number of services now makes it impossible to support Strasbourg. It is a question of political dignity. Obviously, changes need to be made. The plenary Chamber in Brussels, which certainly looks more like a Supreme Soviet than a Parliament, will have to be taken down. We will also, however, have to take action with regard to the Parliamentary calendar for the coming year. The Brussels part-sessions must be given real dignity. We must ensure that they are of the same standard as our part-sessions here in Strasbourg. We must therefore at least double the length of the part-sessions, and we shall make every endeavour to ensure that that happens during the next session."@en1
