". I am not going to get into a dispute over figures in order to explain to you why I voted against the reports by Mr Böge and Mrs Sousa Pinto, both of which relate to the financial perspective. The advocates of this compromise, which they themselves describe as 'tolerable', will not hold it against me, I hope, if I harbour a different ambition for Europe and its citizens to theirs. I do not want a Europe that is reduced to being a mere free-trade area copied from the Anglo-Saxon model, but rather a Europe founded on the values of solidarity and of sharing among nations, something that has always been the vehicle for European progress. This financial perspective is tragically lacking in ambition for the future of the European project and merely helps to promote intergovernmentalism. With a 37% reduction under the heading of growth and competitiveness, and a 10% reduction in the Cohesion Fund, the financial perspective destroys any notion of a revival of Europe and precludes any new policy for seven years."@en1
