"I deplore the position that Parliament adopted this morning on the 2012 draft budget. I therefore voted against this resolution.
The budget, which is supposedly focused on growth, employment and innovation, proposes higher spending on security and controls at the EU's external borders (a policy that has already proven disastrous), on support for research projects with potentially harmful consequences for the environment and public health, and on support for large companies (with no social
), rather than on education, young people, citizenship and third-country development through equitable partnerships.
I also deeply regret the fact that MEPs, in seeking to streamline the resources allocated to administration, are willing to accept cuts in the budget for translation and interpreting, thereby imperilling the survival of the Union’s cultural and linguistic diversity, and also democracy, in which citizens must be able to understand the work of Parliament."@en1
