"The European Globalisation Adjustment Fund does not work. This application, from the Commission, for funds to cover the cost of technical assistance, is essentially EUR 200 000 of taxpayers’ money to be spent on EU ‘propaganda’. Videos and information leaflets will be produced to highlight the ‘wonderful’ work of the EGF and how its proliferation will help protect the European Union from the realities of globalisation, including EUR 250 000 to be spent on networking activity, or, in other words, a chance for interested parties to have a nice meal at the taxpayers’ expense. The most destructive force placing a stranglehold on European business in the context of a global marketplace is the deluge of regulation emanating from Brussels. I would rather the money be spent on a thorough evaluation of the fund. I will continue to vote against any further EGF funding."@en1
