lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, the dramatic events of the weekend should not go unnoticed in this Parliament, so let us send our congratulations to the forces of the United States and Britain and other coalition countries whose valiant efforts have ensured over the weekend that the tyrant Saddam Hussein is now in custody. Those two countries and others have ensured that democracy and freedom can flower in Iraq, where perhaps in the past they would not have done so. Secondly, echoing the comments made by Mr Helmer, we should congratulate the Polish and Spanish Governments on ensuring that this wretched Constitution may be delayed. Perhaps that view may not get cheers inside this Parliament but it will get many cheers in the homes and streets of the countries we all represent. Let us welcome that move and congratulate them on their achievement."@en1
