lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, we pretend we are on the side of the people but produce a report which conspicuously avoids support for popular ratification of this recast constitution. Indeed, such is the determination to rush this report through that we abandon due process in this House to a degree that would make a despot blush! We demand of Member States that they abide by the IGC mandate but declare our unilateral intent to go beyond it by using the European flag and the anthem. We declare our determination immediately we get these constitutional changes through to demand more. This is the elephant trap of this agreement, because it permits self-amendment, which for most will mean never again having to consult the people about whose constitutional status we would make changes."@en1
