È evidente che la regola della doppia preferenza di genere impedisce a me di fare una corsa che possa avere una qualche minima possibilità di competere. Il materiale era pronto, volantini, manifesti, santini, roll up, e come sapete non mi sono risparmiato nelle ultime settimane a girare per il collegio per fare la campagna elettorale. Ma la mia corsa finisce qui. Prima del via ufficiale. Mi scuso con tutti coloro che ho importunato nelle ultime settimane. Ringrazio tutti coloro che hanno avuto parole di affetto e di stima nei miei confronti. È stato un onore rappresentare il paese e tutti voi nel Parlamento Europeo per 10 anni. Ho cercato di fare del mio meglio, tenendo sempre fede ai miei valori e alla mia coscienza. Ora si apre una fase nuova della mia vita…il bello deve ancora venire!" (Tweet) (in Italian) – via Twitter.
