European Parliament
Claudio Morganti  (EFD ),
in writing.
(IT)
I am very pleased that today, an absolute majority of the Members of this Parliament has approved the amendment that I presented, which highlights the impossibility of continuing to operate between two parliamentary seats. Therefore, I hope that this text will now come to the attention of the Council and the Member States as quickly as possible. We cannot continue to hide behind this excuse, speaking of cuts and reductions when we ourselves are complicit, despite ourselves, in the greatest and most absurd wastage of all.
Nevertheless, today, I would like to see two other amendments presented by my Group also approved through a vote in this Chamber: the first to put an end to the extensive and unfathomable financing of parties and European political foundations, and the second to allow the purchase of buildings by the European institutions.
Lega Nord
remains consistent, as always, in its defence of rigour and transparency, whilst other parties prefer to draw on European financing and be complicit in unclear manoeuvrings over properties between Brussels, Strasbourg and Luxembourg.
