lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, when I was European Commission Chief Accountant back in 2002, I pointed out huge flaws in the accounting systems. Today it is still just as bad – or even worse – than it was back then. Yet MEPs will grant discharge to the budget, despite a hole of EUR[nbsp ]6.2 billion in the accounts. It is now clear to me that the discharge procedure is a pantomime. There is no longer proper scrutiny or any holding to account for taxpayers’ money by MEPs. What an anomaly! Those who approve the budget are the same voices asking for budget increases, year after year, for the same Member States they blame for the irregularities. We should instead be cutting the EU budget by a minimum of the same level of the error. In May, taxpayers should call to account all the MEPs who approve of this ludicrous situation."@en1
