"I abstained on the resolution on the modernisation of VAT legislation in order to boost the digital single market. Such modernisation is based exclusively on a reduction in VAT on digital cultural goods, of which there are few consumers. Unfortunately, this proposal is based neither on a desire to disseminate works as a public service, to allow as many people as possible to access them, nor even on the principle that VAT is an unfair tax that should be reduced in order to have less of an impact on the income of the poorest. Rather, this resolution is based on the desire to boost the digital single market, with cultural goods being viewed as a commodity like any other. Moreover, the negotiators who put this compromise together did not even deign to address our political group."@en1
