lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, how am I supposed to vote on this? We have a subsidy scheme which should be the preserve of individual nations. This is taxpayers’ money being spent at EU level, but it is already in the EU’s hands, and this proposal could possibly make the scheme less bad than it is at the moment. So I supported some of the amendments, for example to make sure that it refers only to fresh fruit and vegetables and not to processed and chocolate milk and everything else that we have heard about this evening. Then I have to consider as well the UK’s interests, as it seems we are in the milk scheme but not in the fruit and vegetables scheme, yet it is all bunched together in one vote. So if I vote ‘no’ I do absolutely nothing to make a bad scheme better. If, on the other hand, I vote ‘yes’, then I am legitimising the idea that these things should be happening at a European Union level, not by individual nations. So what else can I do but abstain?"@en1
