lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the European Parliament is now entering into a compromise with the Council of Ministers concerning the half-witted budget for the next seven years. More than a third of EU money goes officially to agriculture, but it does not reach the farmers. Danish farmers’ total net income for agriculture is only a quarter of the direct subsidy. That is madness. Farmers could obtain four times more by way of total net income if the various arrangements were circumvented and the money sent to farmers directly. Another third goes officially to regional development and the Structural Funds. The reality is that poor people in distant regions are direct net contributors to the EU budget. In Latvia, 80% of EU aid goes to Riga. Poor people living in the countryside pay a large contribution to the EU via their daily purchases, but the money is not returned by the EU to those who pay. It is Robin Hood in reverse, with the EU taking from the poor and giving to the rich. Instead, allow the new countries not to have to pay contributions. Focus Structural Fund aid on the poorest areas in the poorest countries and begin by putting a cap on agricultural aid so that no one can receive more than, for example, EUR 30 000. Begin rearranging the budget now by voting against the compromise on funding."@en1
