Amendment to the European Budget Act
-
So here we have the example on how Reitzmag tries to make the European Union worst. And if anyone wondered, I agree with Councillors Falk and Firoux on every single word, and I'm explaining why.
Firstly, the European Budget is supposed to be made by the Premier Commissioner, who is Eilidh Whiteford. We all here know that you, Cllr. van Allen, hate the European Progressive Alliance, hate that your friend Atty. Winston aka European Destroyer lost the Commission Elections that took place on May and June and you hate to take part in projects you don't like because Mr. Juncker or Ms. Whiteford or even Mr. Reynels were the ones that made the proposals. The removal of their competences will just make the Commission to have stupid functions. Mr. van Allen, tell me the truth: If Atty. Winston would be the Internal Affairs Commissioner, would you have submitted this amendment? I imagine that you will answer yes, but as Reitzmag's politics are always upside-down, the real answer will be no.
Councillor van Allen, do you consider youself as democratic? If you do, then Clause 4 is completely opposed to your principles. Cllr. Firoux had to tell you that you were not going to vote the budget and you come with an amendment to stop the sinking of your boat. I think that the Reitzmic boats sank some time ago, but dreaming is very useful. And Clause 5, Cllr. Falk told what I really think about it, no need to repeat the words.
