lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, at the core of these proposals is the creation of yet another European Union control body, this time to manage Member States’ customs authorities. Now, as always, the European Union is dressing up a power grab, and I emphasise ‘a power grab’, as something beneficial – in this case, to prevent illegal and counterfeit goods entering the Union. But the reality is that Brussels is looking to extend its control and to reduce again the sovereignty of Member States. Remember that the freedom of movement, people, services and goods is in place as a key pillar, and yet it seems at odds with what we have been voting on this morning. The salami tactic for power-grabbing has been going on for years, and I am very glad that, once Brexit finally takes place, the United Kingdom will not have to cede yet more power and more control to Brussels – to yet another EU body – in respect of what should be a Member State competence."@en1
