"I find it incredible, given the anti-Brussels hysteria of his UKIP allies, that Mr Blokland has managed to produce such an over-regulated monster of a report. But at least these proposals will allow the anti-European rubbish peddled by Mr Blokland and the UKIP to be disposed of in an environmentally-friendly manner. The aim of these proposals is to improve air quality and protect human health. Incineration is often the most effective and safe method of waste disposal. Sometimes, however, it can release dangerous chemicals, such as dioxins, into the atmosphere. It is therefore vital that these by-products are monitored and prevented from escaping into the environment. The technology for cleaning up fumes from waste incineration plants already exists. We just need to make sure that it is used. The sensible measures put forward by the Commission should encourage the utilisation of this technology. I find the UKIP's hypocrisy breathtaking. I challenge the UKIP to explain to their own supporters how they can be allied to such an obvious supporter of EU over-regulation. While pretending to be the Eurocrat's foe, they are clearly, in fact, the Eurocrat's friend. I fear that cleaning up the environment may prove to be a doddle compared to the task of persuading the UKIP to clean up its act. The losers, sadly, will be our own citizens."@en1
