"Mr President, firstly I want to say by way of introduction that the relationship between Ireland and the United Kingdom is now better than ever and will hopefully continue to be so. But I must respond to Mr Farage’s rather patronising reference to little Ireland being bullied into voting twice on the Lisbon Treaty. We were not bullied. It was the decision of the Irish Parliament to hold a referendum and of the Irish people to accept it. Secondly, there was a fundamental difference between Lisbon I and Lisbon II. In Lisbon II each Member State got a Commissioner. Different entirely to Lisbon I. Now in reference to today, I would like to compliment President Barroso for his eloquent speech. He referred to the need for Treaty change to put an end to the piecemeal solutions we have as of now, but because Treaty change would take such a long time, how are we going to put an end to, or at least prevent, piecemeal solutions at this particular time?"@en1
