"Mr President, I would have been tempted to follow the example of Mr Cox and abstain from the vote on Mrs Stauner’s report, but, in all honesty, I have to say that before I left to come to Strasbourg, some pensioners asked me what I was going to do here. When I told them that my tasks included voting on the postponement of discharge, which we are discussing today, they asked me to remind the President of the House that the pensioners and their party, which I represent, consider that expenditure takes up too great a part of the European Parliament’s budget. They therefore call for expenditure to be halved and the resources freed up in this way used to increase the pension funds of the 15 Member States, which have been in serious difficulties for too long now."@en1
