lpv:spoken text	"While I support efforts towards a co-ordinated position in the UN among the Western democracies, and have long argued the case for institutional reform of UN structures, I do not accept that the EU should act on our behalf. Under no circumstances should individual members of the UN, still less members of the Security Council, allow EU usurpation of their right to put their own view forward. I reject the objective of "an EU seat in the Security Council". As a matter of principle therefore - and without in any way rejecting UN initiatives such as the Millennium Development Goals, or the 'Right to Protect' concept - I abstained on the report."@en1
