Nigel Farage talks about Vaclav Klaus's speech to European Parliament - 19.2.2009 www.reformy.cz
It's the first time in ten years here
that after a main speech from in front of chamber I have been able to stand up and cheer loudly.
Yea it was the visit of prezident Václav Klaus from the Czech Republic.
And he stood up today and he told it exactly how it is:
He made it clear that this European project had become something, whereby those involved
only recognize the "status quo",
refuse to accept that there could be any other ideas allowed
and that they weren't listening to what the people of Europe were saying
At this very point the British Labour Party
got up and walked out of the chamber - the idea that was not lost on me.
But he also went on to say
that if the European Union continues to go down the route like this
that it will begin to resemble the Soviet Union
that his own country had suffered under for so many years
So it really was a very strong stuff
Afterwards there was a lunch
and the group leaders were invited to lunch with the president
and at one point during the lunch
I heard the president of this parliament Hans-Gert Pöttering say to him
He said: "Mr President, your prejudices do not live up to your intelectual ability".
I mean that is just how arrogant, that is just how disbeliving these people are that there is any possible alternative view.
In fact what it did, was to validate the very speech that president Klaus has given.
I have to say, today is one of those unusual days, rare days
when it actually has been a pleasure to be in the European Parliament in Brussels.
