English: Well, I rise to support the motion so rumbustiously moved by Darren Millar this afternoon. And, for me, Friday will be the culmination of a lifetime's work, as I joined the Anti Common Market League in July 1967 as a schoolboy in Ammanford, and it has been the skein that has run through my whole political life, which has, as Members know, taken often some surprising turns, perhaps not least to have brought me here. But the most surprising of all was when I was appointed to the EU Council of Ministers by John Major to represent the UK on internal market matters. I've never wavered throughout my entire life, and, indeed, in doing that job, from my belief that Britain - and that includes Wales, obviously - would be much better governed if those who are taking the ultimate decisions about our laws were elected by, and accountable to, the people. And this opaque unelected technocracy in Brussels, which is so worshipped by so many remainers, has always been a rather incredible fetish to me. I've never really understood why anybody would approve that as being the best form of government. Carwyn Jones mentioned Winston Churchill earlier on. Churchill famously said that democracy is the worst of all political systems until you consider the alternatives. And it is, of course, a calumny to say that Churchill's Zurich speech in 1946 was actually an endorsement of the European Union, because Churchill famously said - [ Interruption.] No, but this was the precursor of it, the precursor of the European movement, which was founded, I think, in the following year. As Churchill famously said: 'We are with Europe, but not of it. We are linked, but not comprised.' And he saw Europe as a unity in conjunction with the British empire, which we then still had - as being, together, two great forces for good in the world. But he never actually saw Britain as part of that European entity. And, over the course of the last 50 years, I have fought to achieve what we are going to achieve on Friday. So, it's actually a very moving moment for me, and what we make of it, of course, is entirely up to us. A nation ultimately succeeds or fails according to the strength and determination of its own people.
Welsh: Wel, rwy'n codi i gefnogi'r cynnig a gafodd ei gyflwyno mor gadarn gan Darren Millar y prynhawn yma. Ac i mi, dydd Gwener fydd penllanw gwaith oes, gan i mi ymuno â'r gynghrair a wrthwynebai'r farchnad gyffredin ym mis Gorffennaf 1967 yn fachgen ysgol yn Rhydaman, a bu'n elfen sydd wedi rhedeg drwy fy holl fywyd gwleidyddol, sydd, fel y gŵyr yr Aelodau, wedi wynebu troeon annisgwyl yn fynych, ac nid yn lleiaf yr un a ddaeth â mi yma. Ond yr hyn a barodd y syndod mwyaf oedd pan gefais fy mhenodi i Gyngor Gweinidogion yr UE gan John Major i gynrychioli'r DU ar faterion y farchnad fewnol. Ar hyd fy oes, ac yn wir, wrth wneud y swydd honno, nid wyf erioed wedi gwyro yn fy nghred y byddai Prydain - ac mae hynny'n cynnwys Cymru, yn amlwg - yn cael ei llywodraethu'n llawer gwell pe bai'r rhai sy'n gwneud y penderfyniadau terfynol am ein cyfreithiau yn cael eu hethol gan, ac yn atebol i'r bobl. Ac mae'r dechnocratiaeth anetholedig ym Mrwsel, sy'n cael ei haddoli i'r fath raddau gan gynifer o'r rhai sydd am aros, bob amser wedi bod yn destun syndod braidd yn anhygoel i mi. Nid wyf erioed wedi deall yn iawn pam y byddai unrhyw un yn cymeradwyo hynny fel y ffurf orau ar lywodraeth. Soniodd Carwyn Jones am Winston Churchill yn gynharach. Dywedodd Churchill y geiriau cyfarwydd mai democratiaeth yw'r gwaethaf o bob system wleidyddol nes i chi ystyried y dewisiadau eraill. Ac wrth gwrs, camgyhuddiad yw dweud bod araith Zurich Churchill yn 1946 yn cymeradwyo'r Undeb Ewropeaidd mewn gwirionedd, oherwydd dywedodd Churchill - [ T orri ar draws.] Na, ond dyma'i ragflaenydd, rhagflaenydd y mudiad Ewropeaidd, a sefydlwyd, rwy'n credu, yn y flwyddyn ganlynol. Fel y dywedodd Churchill yn enwog: Rydym ni gydag Ewrop, ond nid ohoni. Rydym wedi ein cysylltu, ond heb ein cyfaddawdu. A gwelai Ewrop fel undod ar y cyd â'r ymerodraeth Brydeinig, a oedd yn dal i fod gennym bryd hynny - gyda'i gilydd fel y ddau rym mawr er daioni yn y byd. Ond ni welai Brydain fel rhan o'r endid Ewropeaidd hwnnw mewn gwirionedd. Ac yn ystod y 50 mlynedd diwethaf, rwyf wedi brwydro i gyflawni'r hyn y byddwn yn ei gyflawni ddydd Gwener. Felly, mewn gwirionedd mae'n foment deimladwy iawn i mi, a mater i ni yn llwyr, wrth gwrs, yw'r hyn a wnawn ohono. Mae cenedl yn llwyddo neu'n methu yn y pen draw yn ôl cryfder a phenderfyniad ei phobl ei hun.
