"Paying tax is a duty that no citizen should be able to shirk. This has been pointed out to Mr Brok. The purpose of immunity is not to offer protection from criminal offences but to protect freedom of expression. I am therefore pleased that he has rectified his mistake.
The report is nonetheless unpleasant on more than one account. Mr Speroni, EUR 5 000 is not a negligible amount, and no one forced Mr Brok into this situation. Therefore, the accusations of persecution for ‘the accidental omission of a minor sum’ are, to my mind, completely uncalled-for. I shall vote against."@en1
