"Mr President, please note that, a fortnight ago, a Chinese investor said that the problems occurring in European countries were entirely the product of a society in its death throes, built on socialist ideals. These encourage laziness rather than hard work. The system of incentives has gone totally off the rails.
The problem with the 2012 EU budget is, indeed, the socialist demand, made by the European Parliament and the Commission, that more and more money be spent when this is simply not possible. Social democracy is working to protect its own interests and that has led to totally irresponsible behaviour. This is reflected in the 2012 budget. This budget, which has been increased again, will only create more jobs for the established euro clique, which has divided the pie up between its members. Our citizens have ended up with nothing. No value has been added: on the contrary. The 2012 budget will not resolve our problems, it will make them worse.
The only solution which Europe really needs is to cut back on pointless things and focus on those things that directly contribute to the recovery of jobs, so that our citizens can earn their living honestly and meet the needs of their families. Yet, the EU will achieve none of that with the 2012 budget. The EU is failing and contributing to its own decline. That is obviously not what the Dutch Party for Freedom (PVV) wants, and it is, therefore, voting against the 2012 budget, on behalf of Dutch citizens."@en1
