European Parliament
Fatuzzo (PPE-DE ).
(IT)
When I woke up this morning, Mr President, I thought I was Mr Rothley and, on my way to Parliament in the car with which we are provided, I thought, ‘I want to table an amendment to my report’ – speaking as Mr Rothley – ‘which gives Members of the European Parliament a salary which is twice as large as that paid to judges’. When I got to Parliament, however, I looked in the mirror and saw that I was Mr Fatuzzo. I had no hope of succeeding and so I had to resign myself to voting for the motion: it is better to be half a judge than to be a nobody.
