"It is unacceptable for the European Union to demand that each of its Member States reduce its deficits and spending, while at the same time proposing an increased budget. While the Member States are instructed to make cuts in every area and to lower their budget deficits accordingly, the European Commission wants to increase the 2013 budget by 6.8%. There is no question that this must be rejected. Even if a lot of money is supposed to flow back into the countries through programmes to promote growth and new infrastructure projects, the Commission’s plans do not exactly show it to be willing to make cuts. I can quite understand the criticism levelled by some countries, those that are absolutely against this, who say that their own contribution to the EU budget is too high. We all have to make cuts and keep our budgets in order, and it is therefore unacceptable for the EU bureaucracy to become even more inflated and for even more spending to arise. Calling for budget increases in this difficult situation is not beneficial, which is why I, too, voted against the multiannual financial framework."@en1
