lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, I would like to thank all the rapporteurs. The warm words that we have heard this evening from colleagues have been really touching. I would like to say to Mr Kelly that we do all this work and get very little recognition, yet tonight we are trying to save lives. That is something that the few of us who are in this Chamber this evening should remember. Why we are here, even at ten minutes to midnight, is really important. On the value of the single market, Ms Ford is absolutely right that we work together, we come up with a compromise and then we sit at the table. If UKIP had their way, they would have us leave the EU, have no say and we would still have to pay for the privilege. It is not a workable solution. We need to make sure that the UK remains in the European Union, that we have our say and that we influence policies that influence the single market. I think it was the previous Dutch Presidency, all those years ago, which described the EU as this beautiful thing, this beautiful piece of process, but something very precious and something that we need to make sure we keep working upon. The fact that we have a single market with 500 million consumers, covering 28 countries, and tonight we can sit and make decisions that impact all of those people in a sensible, positive way, is something that is very precious and worth defending. Thank you for your time this evening. Thank you for all your support. It has been a privilege working with people who want to make sure the single market works for our citizens."@en1
