So, over these months, we have been on a wild goose chase.

Experience shows that if you chase your own shadow, you will eventually fall down exhausted and die.

I condemn such a conservative ideology.

I strongly condemn these murders.

I deplore and condemn this.

We must condemn these practices.

We strongly condemn recent violence.

30873 Hence the worrying decline in meat consumption.

This is why people decline the office of mayor.

Such strategies would lead in the medium term to stagnation and decline.

The truth is, indeed, that we find ourselves in a time of democratic decline.

There are many reasons for the decline in the railways.

I fundamentally disagree with that.

I disagree with him on this.

I beg to disagree with him.

I happen to disagree with these critics.

I defy anyone to disagree with that.

Every year, we discard a huge amount of cars which contain many dangerous substances.

Healthy waste products from the abattoir are valuable providers of protein which we should not discard.

It is too early to see one system as a universal panacea and dismiss another.

Furthermore, we should not dismiss the result of this trial run of the codecision procedure.

Everyone pays, whether they dump their waste in the sea or dispose of it elsewhere.

But they have a responsibility if they only intend to dispose of the waste item.

Secondly, all ships, regardless of the flag they fly, have to dispose of their waste.

I think that we agree that ships have to dispose of waste and residues in port.

These smaller companies either dispose of their cargo or mix it with other cargo, which causes problems.

Everyone pays, whether they dump their waste in the sea or dispose of it elsewhere.

The cooperation includes exchange of information and mapping of munitions dump sites.

We refuse to believe this hypothesis.

But we refuse to talk about such things.

I refuse to choose one side or the other.

Please do not refuse this request, ladies and gentlemen.

It will not be us who refuse these new resources.

I must refute this assertion.

I simply want to refute that our sole aim would be to disturb proceedings.

I have to refute what you have said because none of it is true.

We reject government by officials as much as we reject government by judges.

We energetically reject it.

I emphatically reject such insinuations.

I emphatically reject that proposition.

We shall reject these amendments.

On their return, the transporters must send back completed route plans to the same competent authority.

We should not, however, throw away the baby with the bath water.

Tens of thousands of people live and sleep a stone's throw away from the runway.

To scrap these successful schemes now would be to throw away the baby with the bath water.

We have acquired a powerful tool.

A computer is only a machine, a tool.

This will be a very important tool.

Any new technology is just a tool.

Ensure too, that training becomes a management tool.

Stalling tactics are used to withhold and delay information.

I am convinced that none of the countries withhold essential information.

If there were a breach of the environmental legislation, we could actually withhold project money.

An attempt is being made then to withhold information on the grounds that consumers are ostensibly stupid.

Publication must be our presumption and the onus placed squarely on those who seek to withhold it.

-- We will now adjourn the vote and resume after the formal sitting.

We will now adjourn the debate since we must proceed to the vote, which will take a while.

Let me cite just three examples.

I cite qualified majority voting as an example.

14911 Everyone could cite examples of this.

18107 I shall cite the most significant here.

I should like to cite two examples here.

We do not need to defer it any longer.

We will therefore have to defer this experiment until the next plenary sitting.

Their future commitment depends on whether or not we are willing to defer.

It is not acceptable for them to ask us to defer our own regulations.

Unfortunately, however, we have now reached the point at which we can no longer defer this discussion.

The delay is unacceptable.

Parliament will not tolerate delay.

They must be implemented without delay.

We can delay this no longer.

So there is no reason to delay.

I support his refusal of discharge.

We shall therefore grant the discharge.

Closure is a condition for such a discharge.

Yet we are obliged to give discharge.

In that year, we voted against granting discharge.

The settlers have opened fire.

It is aiding and abetting fire.

So we are playing with fire.

Today, our house is on fire.

We experienced this at first hand because our group came under fire.

A more balanced economic policy mix is required.

I do not think we can mix things up in this way.

We no longer have any need for elected representatives to devise the right policy mix.

The common position lacked any vision whatsoever; it was a pick - and - mix with something for everyone.

The energy mix will no longer be the same.

To postpone them once again would be a setback.

We are continually having to postpone the discussion of reports.

3913 I would therefore ask, also on behalf of many others, to postpone the vote until tomorrow.

And then we say we will postpone it to whenever.

I think we can postpone this vote out of respect for him and the work he has done.

Fifth, the fees should reflect costs.

The various reports reflect this mainstream attitude.

They reflect a very large measure of agreement.

So our policies have to reflect that.

All four pillars should reflect aspects of equality.
