"Owing to the inclusion of several points that are extremely harmful to Polish sovereignty, the Solidarna Polska [United Poland] delegation within the Europe of Freedom and Democracy Group was unable to vote in favour of the motion for a resolution. I believe that nobody whose aim is for Poland to retain its sovereignty and to cooperate within the European Union on an equal footing can, in clear conscience, support measures that will lead to the creation of a single European superstate. Including through the introduction of a requirement to allocate as much as 20 % of expenditure to tackling climate change. The EU’s current policy in this area (the so-called climate and energy package) will lead to a twofold rise in energy prices, a loss of competitiveness for Polish industry and the disappearance of several hundred thousand jobs, and may jeopardise Poland’s economic growth. There is a lack of any clear provisions concerning the reform of the common agricultural policy, in particular as regards ensuring equal conditions of competitiveness and equal payments for farmers in Poland and in other Member States or on the introduction of a new European tax to provide direct EU financing, without going through the Member States. The motion for a resolution merely calls for the introduction of a European Financial Transaction Tax. The introduction of an EU tax is a step towards the creation of an EU federal state."@en1
