A major disruption occurred in the European Parliament when MEP Godfrey Bloom shouted the Nazi slogan "Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Führer" at German MEP Martin Schulz. The incident caused a "fracas" in the chamber, leading President Jerzy Buzek to demand an official apology. The hosts discuss the live translation difficulties and the irony of the EU's rigid rulebook being used to police speech during a heated debate.

### EU Parliament Apology Stand-off, Rule 9

- **Episode:** [255: Radioactive Butts](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/255-radioactive-butts.md)
- **Published:** 2010-11-25
- **Time:** 1:08:43–1:13:04
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/255-radioactive-butts/chapter/eu-parliament-apology-stand-off-rule-9.md

The confrontation between Godfrey Bloom and Martin Schulz escalates as Bloom refuses to offer a sincere apology, instead calling Schulz an "undemocratic fascist." The session is briefly suspended as leadership consults the rulebook (specifically Rule 9) to determine how to handle the insult. The hosts mock the "Starfleet Command" atmosphere of the proceedings and the obsession with formal apologies over substantive policy.

Godfrey Bloom is ultimately escorted out of the European Parliament by an official in "coat and tails" after refusing to leave voluntarily. Nigel Farage defends Bloom, arguing that the rules are not applied evenly since Schulz frequently calls Euroskeptics fascists without repercussion. The hosts note that this dramatic expulsion was largely ignored by mainstream news outlets across the European Union.
