lpv:translated text	"It has taken a long time to get to the point where the speculators are to make a solidarity contribution to pay for the consequences of the crisis. It was precisely such risky business, detached from the real economy, which led us into the heart of the economic and financial crisis. The financial transaction tax should now put a brake on such short-term speculation, which has no added value of any kind for the real economy. Quite rightly, a broad majority of EU citizens are speaking out in favour of a financial transaction tax. In order to be efficient, the tax should be applied as widely as possible, and this applies both to the nature of the transaction – currency speculators must also be included – and to the number of Member States. I hope that a broad majority will vote in favour, and that Parliament will hold its own against the various financial lobbies and financial markets. I therefore voted in favour of the introduction of the financial transaction tax."@en1
