lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, I have just voted against measures which would have effectively thrown open the doors of Europe to migrants coming here regardless of who they are. It would have become an effective common asylum policy, taking away sovereignty from the nation states, allowing people to come here with no regard as to whether they are genuinely seeking asylum because they are in danger, or whether they have just turned up on the shores. This is yet another example of a knee-jerk reaction to a major, significant problem. They refuse to deal with the real issues in this place and all they do is say: ‘oh well, it is difficult, let us just open it up’. I suggest that all the people who so passionately here today have argued in favour of opening the doors to everyone follow the example that Sir Bob Geldof has put forward – maybe they could offer to house many of these refugees, regardless of any checks on them, in their own homes, and then once they have led by example the rest of us could take them more seriously."@en1
