"We are obviously in favour of Britain receiving money from the European Union as a contribution to the cost of floods last year. We therefore support this motion.
However, we take this opportunity to place on record that we do not favour this arrangement under which Britain must apply to the European Union for assistance.
The UK is a large net contributor to the EU budget. Rather than having to plead for a small amount to be returned to us, we should prefer to retain our funds and decide for ourselves how they are spent."@en1
