lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, the whole purpose of a free market is to swap on the back of differences. The purpose of the European Union is to have exchange through comparative advantage, but in this report, we see measures being proposed to protect and stimulate European manufacturers at the expense of those elsewhere. You would have thought, with everything going on in the world at the moment, that we would be aware of the dangers of repeating the mistakes of the 1930s and adding to a downturn with protectionism. The tragedy is that Europe, by cutting itself off from the bits of the world that are still growing, is not only impoverishing consumers directly but is making itself economically irrelevant. We had an awful lot of talk yesterday about Britain being isolated and standing aside. I would be very happy to rejoin the wider world when it is the EU as a whole which is isolating itself."@en1
