@omniscient232 that is against the freedom of speech and he has every right to speak out against her. She has never been elected to anything in her life but she has the power to dictate part of my country's foreign policy? A foreign policy i cannot vote for. She needs to be kicked out of her position and let the people of Europe decide whether or not they want to be in this political union or not in a fair and free referendum.

LOL, what an embarrassing twat!

[Norskal]

This is ridiculous...

@omniscient232 Since he was questioning her suitability to the post, I dont see what is wrong with it. It must be hard to remain calm and follow orders when you can see them screwing with everyone on a daily basis.

I think that if the chairperson has a button for cutting off chamber personnel, that all chamber personnel should have a button for cutting off the chairperson. Might make it a lot quieter in there. :)

@bbphnix

no it's necessary, because out of 750 people there only has to be one lunatic who can fuck it up for the rest.

that aside from whether it was appropriate in this occasion.

there is an EP rule that you cannot make personal attacks during a debate that is not about that person's qualification. I don't know if i agree with the rule, but since the rule exists, you can't blame her (the acting president) for applying that rule.

@allenco65

sexism?

[rugbyboy198127]

this will end in war - i'll be the first to fight - you eurocrats think you can take on england? think again - we're just arising from a deep sleep - not soon enough - we need to examine our (british) political system carefully to enable us to understand just how it has been possible for our politicians under new labour to give away our democracy, sovereignty and freedom entirely without so much as a wimper nevermind cross examination - it's an absolute disgrace - i'm for the 1st time ashamed!?!
