Yesterday, the European Parliament voted on the joint motion for a resolution on the scheme for food distribution to the most deprived persons in the Union. The resolution deals with the gradual decrease in aid down to the recently established budget level, which I have nothing against as such. The reasons why I voted against the resolution as a whole are instead paragraphs 7 and 10, which I find problematic. Paragraph 7 gives an erroneous description of the right to food, which is serious because it risks undermining the legal value of human rights, which in the long term may have far-reaching negative consequences for people right around the world. Paragraph 10 stresses that European farmers need to be guaranteed a certain level of income. To guarantee a minimum wage for self-employed people – which is of course what farmers are – in any sector is neither reasonable nor politically desirable."@en1
