Euro MPs' expenses and pensions are so lavish that they can earn as much as £1m (1.13m euros) on top of their salaries over their five-year term in parliament, a British campaign group says.
Corruption is rife at home in our Parliament, and corruption is rife in Europe. It beggars belief that MEPs could vote not to disclose an audit report to the public, whom they are supposed to serve. It begs the question, what is the point of having an audit to monitor costs and then not be aware of the balance sheet? Imagine going to a cash point and tapping in your pin number, tapping the "balance" request button and the on screen or print out says "mind your own business, we're not telling you anything!"?
