"The European Parliament has spoken out again on the European budget through the Multiannual Financial Framework, a kind of EU five-year plan.
Now the EU, which requires what can be very demanding sacrifices of Member States, in no way provides for the application of this good advice to itself. The proposals contained in this text are unrealistic and are nearer to mind-numbing mantras; waste and bureaucracy still have a bright future ahead of them.
Worse still, in order to escape ‘blackmail’ by Member States, which are naturally reluctant to increase their already very high contributions, Parliament once more raises the issue of own resources for the EU, or, in short, a European tax. ‘Do as I say and not as I do’ could be the new European motto."@en1
