"Mr President, I have three points to make. Firstly, public finances are still in a mess. We have to stop wasting taxpayers’ money so it can be spent where it is needed. The EU should be leading by example, but instead it is still throwing money at vanity projects. So let us stop them.
Secondly, we need to stop just talking about growth and competitiveness and take action. We have to cut bureaucracy for businesses, but instead the EU puts barriers on our businesses, costs on our consumers and impediments on our investors. Let us stop them.
Thirdly, the economic crisis started in the financial sector. Four years on, this week, the share prices of some of Europe’s biggest banks are still tumbling. The ECB’s EUR 1 trillion sticking plaster is not working. Reforming financial services is not a political toy. Our Basel commitments are vital, but measures that force our largest services industry to relocate overseas must be stopped."@en1
