"Mr President, I have a very strong feeling of déjà vu today. Once again, this Parliament wants to increase its spending and, again, there is no political will to cut spending. Parliament has even succeeded in asking for more money than the Commission for certain things, such as EUR 3 million for the Turkish Cypriots, millions more for costly agencies, EUR 20 million for pilot projects, EUR 139 million for disastrous projects on issues like climate change, wind energy and ideas, an extra EUR 27 million for developing countries such as Iran, Iraq, Yemen and Latin America. And, as the icing on the cake, an extra EUR 100 million for the Palestinian Territories.
It is Parliament’s audacity here that so deeply saddens me. Always making more and more demands and, thereby, showing a total lack of concern for the citizens, who are going through some very difficult times. Fortunately, there is
ray of hope. Today’s result should be passed back to the wise and sensible Council, where the Netherlands will be able to exercise its veto."@en1
