"I voted against the motion for a resolution on the multiannual financial framework and own resources as the report supports the slash and burn policies in the Member States of the EU that hit ordinary workers. What is more, I do not support the EU budget being funded by own resources by means of an EU levy on goods (VAT) or a tax on financial transactions. Own resources would limit the democratic control of the EU’s budgets and limit the redistribution of resources from rich to poor regions. I support a version of a tax on financial transactions – the so-called Robin Hood tax – where the income goes to the Member States to support the funding of welfare and to combating climate change and poverty in developing countries. I also support Parliament’s role in the process, and my vote in no way represents support for the Council’s proposal."@en1
