"Madam President, I am just going to address one item in the budget, and that is the instrument for pre-accession funding. In seven years from 2014, the European Union has budgeted over EUR[nbsp ]14 billion to be paid to countries who are not EU Member States. These countries get the money because they are candidate countries. They are a former Yugoslav Republic, Iceland, Montenegro, and the one that gets the most money: Turkey. And Turkey especially will cost us even more in cohesion funds should it become a Member State. Bizarrely, the establishment parties in the UK are all cheerleaders for Turkey to join the European Union. And let me be crystal clear: any political party that supports, let alone vociferously supports, Turkey’s candidacy can have no credibility when it comes to controlling, let alone cutting, the vast and wasteful EU budget."@en1
