"I would like to take advantage of Mr Böge’s report on budget programming for the current period to return to the Commission’s crazy proposals for the coming 2014-2020 period. With a budget of EUR 1 000 billion, which represents a 30% increase, the Commission is removing, for itself, the fiscal constraints that it imposes on the Member States. It is proposing to slash its
the common agricultural policy, whilst prohibiting its partial renationalisation, despite the issues of food self-sufficiency and safety being more important than ever.
It is promoting policies whose operation and effectiveness are increasingly being called into question by the Member States and even by the Court of Auditors. The same is true, in particular, for those policies that feed into the Structural Funds. Now, regional policy, with its requirement for cofinancing, is an incitement to public spending. Its objective is, above all, to grease the palms of local bigwigs and to destroy the Member States.
Finally, I wish to mention the very worrying 2% VAT proposal, a proposed new own resource to fill the coffers in Brussels. It is not clear whether it is 2% of the income from this tax that will be allocated to it, or 2 extra points from which it alone will benefit. In short, it is wholly unacceptable."@en1
