"Mr President, since I became an MEP I have been fighting for a reduction in the EU budget. The economic growth promised by the Lisbon Agenda and financed by the current long-term budget has instead brought economic stagnation. I fully support the deal negotiated by the British Prime Minister at the European Council. It represents the first cut in the EU budget since 1993. I have therefore voted in favour of my group’s MFF resolution which endorses the agreement reached by the prime ministers of the 27 Member States early in February 2013. Like other political groups, the ECR emphasises the need to spend more efficiently, rather than simply spend more. It enshrines sound financial management as the guiding principle of the EU budget. I regard the rejection of the Council agreement by the other groups as a slap in the face of European taxpayers. We should lead by example and share the austerity burden; instead the European Parliament has shown its gluttony."@en1
