"Mr President, last year, EUR 107 million was paid out in macro-financial assistance. Since the scheme began the EU has paid out EUR 9 billion, all to countries which are not even members of the EU. From the point of view of the taxpayer, the scheme closely resembles pre-accession funding, another wasteful giveaway of our money. Not to mince words, it is simply a slush fund.
Last year, Kosovo, Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina got macro-financial assistance, three countries with deserved reputations for bribery, corruption and organised crime. The term ‘macro-financial assistance’ is simply EU jargon intended to conceal what is really going on: yet more British taxpayers’ money paid out by the EU to the wrong people and then wasted."@en1
