"I voted against this report as it is utterly inconceivable that Parliament should grant any discharge for even a part of the budget until the budget as a whole has been signed off by the Court of Auditors, something which has never to date happened without significant tweaking and deception. I also believe that it is a disgrace that Parliament continues to waste money during a time of strict austerity on projects such as a visitor’s centre, the House of European History, the LUX prize and other such awards designed to promote the EU’s erroneous values which simply function as vehicles to push forward Brussels’ agenda. As such, it is using taxpayers’ money to afford propaganda when hundreds of thousands of citizens in Europe are hostile to the machinations of the European Union in their home countries and suffering terribly as a result of the failed single currency project. It also brings about the subject of holding Parliamentary plenary in Strasbourg, which is not only a profligate waste of money, but goes against the EU’s purported carbon reduction values. The agreement to have Parliament in Strasbourg was to satiate calls from the then French Government, calls which are outdated and smack of preferentialism."@en1
