lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the vote that we held here earlier today on the multiannual financial framework (MFF) was probably the biggest, possibly not the most important, but the biggest vote by far that we will hold as members of the European Parliament. Close to DKK 1 000 billion has been waved through here, because we pushed the buttons and decided how the money in the EU should be spent from 2014 to 2020. The interesting thing was to see the protest in the room against my group – the EFD Group – having insisted on the individual votes having to be on a roll-call basis and in public, naturally so that citizens can see who has voted for what, given that it involves approximately DKK 1 000 billion to be used over a period including the next seven years, which is longer than any Commissioner or any Member of Parliament generally sits, without having to be held responsible to the voters. It is telling of the way in which Parliament and the EU system generally work that the further away from citizens the decisions can be made, and the more secretly it can be done, the less has to be entered in the accounts, and the better it is. This is not worthy of any democracy."@en1
