Annual report on the financial activities of the European Investment Bank (debate)

  David Coburn (EFDD), blue-card question. – You represent the South East. Well, how are you going to explain to the people who elected you – the ordinary working people of Britain – that you do not want our EUR 35 billion back? That’s a lot of hospitals, that’s a lot of infrastructure, that’s a lot of nurses. How are you going to explain that, Sir? They have decided to leave. Try and explain it to me, Sir. I’d love to hear.
