"Mr President, I am acting in this Chamber as the spokesman for pensioners and old people throughout the whole of Europe, who, once again, have said to me: ‘We do not have time to wait for the European Constitution. We are eighty, ninety, one hundred years old: there is no time!’ So, I would ask the Irish Presidency to bear this in mind or, better still, remind all the other presidents of it. In particular, if this cannot be done, I would suggest, as an alternative, that more time be given to old people and pensioners. How? Given that the President of the Council, Mr Berlusconi, appears to have grown ten years younger – as a result of plastic surgery, it is said – I would ask that all pensioners and old people in Europe be allowed to go down the same route, at the State’s expense, so that they can also become ten years younger and have time to wait for the European Council to eventually give us the Constitution."@en1
