lpv:spoken text	"I voted in favour of this report from the TAXE Committee. Aggressive tax avoidance and evasion is a problem across the EU, as the committee has shown. Billions of pounds every year are not being applied where they should; the individuals who are involved in this activity are taking all the advantages of being a part of a society and not contributing their fair share. This is billions which could be invested in schools, hospitals and public services, and for too long, governments and multinational corporations have been involved in a race to the bottom on tax, which makes ordinary people who do pay their taxes the losers at the expense of the super-rich. It is now time for the governments of the EU – especially the Tory government of the UK – to listen to the will of the people and actually do something to end this completely unreasonable practice."@en1
