"Madam President, I have heard a lot this afternoon about individual rights, democracy and democratic accountability, but when you look at the record of this place, this Chamber, this Union, they have ignored referendums, they have sought that democratic governments be toppled – and we need only look at the Portuguese election where, as Nigel Farage said, if you had replaced in the Brezhnev doctrine ‘socialist’ with ‘European Union’, it’s the same thing. This place has no right to lecture anyone on any of those principles, because you lot put the interests of the European Union first. You have the euro, which has created mass unemployment. You have the desire for ever closer union, which rejects democracy. You have created the borders crisis. You have no right whatsoever to lecture any of the governments or any of the peoples of this European Union, because if you keep doing that, we will break free. Britain will be free, and after that, many other nations in this Union will be free."@en1
