lpv:translated text	". This is a logical consequence of the single market: citizens can take out loans in a country other than the one where they reside. Precisely because of this opportunity, a Member should indeed be concerned about the protection of a consumer who has benefited from this opportunity but who confronts practices which are, certainly, similar to those in his or her own country but which are, nevertheless, special and strange. The problem is that there are not many cross-border loans, because of the language barrier and the lack of any personal relationship with the lender. That is just common sense. Consumers, who often regard bankers, together with insurers and mobile telephone providers, as the top three crooks and thieves, are not enthusiastic about doing business with one of them who does not speak their language and is not very clear about the clauses that cause problems. In this context, the Commission’s desire to allow practices that do not interest anyone seems dogmatic. It amounts to abandoning people’s common sense in favour of a utopia. This is why, despite everything, I abstained in defence of the consumers you claim to be protecting."@en1
