lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the motto that the German Presidency of the Council is ‘Europe – succeeding together’, and the new Treaty has been drafted in a transparent manner by the personal representatives of the Heads of State or Government, of all the national parliaments and by the EU institutions. Since this January, here in this House, the President of the Council said that there must, in Europe, be no tolerance for intolerance, our intention, at the Council, should be to say that there must be no tolerance for ignorance, be it for ignorance of one’s own signature, ignorance of what it means to be a community of peace, freedom, democracy and solidarity, or ignorance of the work of the members of the Convention and ignorance of the common political goals of the EU. Those who seek to weaken the European Union rather than to make it more transparent, closer to its citizens, more democratic and better fitted to act are weakening every Member State and every European citizen. I see the ‘Europe – succeeding together’ slogan as a firm renunciation of Europe, of two-speed Europe, of the so-called third chamber. Let me tell you why: the European Union can succeed only if it carries on down the way of mutual consideration, of action in solidarity and does not become a community of cherry-pickers. Those who divide the whole weaken it. The national parliaments will be strengthened by the subsidiarity proviso; participation in European law cannot do that for them. Let them at last, assume their European responsibility by monitoring the Council’s lawmaking activities rather than weakening the process whereby European law is made."@en1
