"Mr President, I feel that Mr Galeote has made personal comments about me, in my capacity as President of the Spanish Socialists in this House. I would ask him to withdraw his falsities and slurs. I really do not understand Mr Galeote. I do not understand why Mr Galeote is determined to turn a European debate into a Spanish debate. I do not understand why he provokes us, I do not understand this narrow nationalist attitude, trying to bring about a debate amongst Spaniards, when what we should do is resolve – as the Commissioner has said – a problem which is European and which should be resolved from a European perspective. However, Mr Galeote, from one Spaniard to another, I will define what I think of your attitude by means of two traditional sayings. The first is that ‘offence is not caused by those who want to but by those who can’, and the second, which is also very traditional and descriptive, because we all have memories and we all have history, Mr Galeote, is that ‘the thief believes that everybody is like him’. History has recorded what your attitudes have been and what our attitudes have been and still are, the attitudes of the Spanish Socialists here in this Parliament and those of the Spanish Socialists down there, in the Spanish Parliament."@en1
