Hudghton (Verts/ALE).
– Mr President, with reference to Mr Poignant's report, I voted
against the notion that the EU flag should appear on all EU vessels. The
diversity of the European Union is something to celebrate and not to
eliminate. I look forward to the day when an independent Scotland will
have its flag on its vessels and in many other places, choosing if and
when it is appropriate to have the EU flag alongside. I do not believe
that this is one of the occasions when that is either appropriate,
necessary or desirable. |
