"I abstained on this non-legislative and non—binding report because my fellow MEPs and I do not oppose actions to tackle the very serious issue regarding child poverty. However, we do oppose calling for any more EU initiatives and interference as the EU is completely undemocratic and the only people that should decide how we tackle child poverty should be our own elected government, not bureaucrats in Brussels. The EU’s own policy on this is a failure, as they have admitted they are very unlikely to hit their own target by 2020 on poverty and social exclusion. Also, if the UK didn’t pay £55 million a day to the EU, we could do so much more to help children who are in poverty. The EU is one of the problems, not the solution."@en1
