MEPs Vote for Gravy Train
Andrew Osborn
The
Guardian
MEPs yesterday squandered their last chance to
rid themselves of their gravy train image before next year's European elections
by voting to pay themselves £73,000 a year and make themselves exempt from
national tax.
They also voted to do something they have
skilfully avoided since the parliament's first direct elections in 1979 -
justify their lavish expenses.
The fact that MEPs opted for such a high
common salary (a 30% rise for British MEPs and far more than Westminster MPs who
earn £56,358) means the package is certain to be rejected by EU governments.
That in turn means that the current expenses
system - which lets MEPs claim for business class flights regard less of whether
they actually fly business class - will be perpetuated.
Nor will the parliament's 626 MEPs have to
start providing receipts as proof of expenses incurred.
British MEPs voted against the new regime
arguing that it was too generous and would never be accepted by governments, but
a majority disagreed.
Controversially, a majority also voted to opt
out of national tax and be subject to a special low EU rate instead - something
the British government has said it will never accept.
If that was not enough to fuel Eurosceptic
fury, MEPs also voted to grant themselves sweeping immunity from prosecution,
deciding that a member's personal freedom could only be restricted if actually
caught red-handed.
Gary Titley, Labour's most senior MEP, said a
major opportunity to clean up the sleazy image had been missed.
"The parliament has made a real pig's ear
of this," he said. "Some people live in a bloody ivory tower and just
don't want reform. Nothing is more galling for people like me who work long
hours than for people to assume that we're on the fiddle and on the gravy
train."
Mr Titley said the £73,000 salary was
"too high" but noted that the figure had been inflated by the euro's
recent rise against the pound - when the proposals were first drafted the figure
equalled £62,000.
Part of the rationale for reform is
harmonisation. Under the current system MEPs receive the same salaries as their
national counterparts which produces massive dis parities in pay across the EU.
But, said Mr Titley, there were too many
vested interests at stake. "It's a classic problem. You're asking turkeys
to vote for Christmas. The Italians and the Austrians [the best paid] don't want
to take a pay cut while members from the poorer parts of southern Europe don't
want to reform the expenses regime because that is how they make up their
money."
Diana Wallis, a British Liberal Democrat MEP,
said: "The reform package has been sabotaged by a group of MEPs determined
to resist change who made an appeal based on naked greed."
· European Commission president Romano Prodi
called yesterday for the scrapping of the national veto, as EU states continue
to squabble over the shape of a new constitution.

The so-called 'oppression' of
women ...
click a picture
Western men die some five years earlier than
women. They suffer more from nearly every medical disease and ailment that there is.
And yet, far more money is spent by governments on women's health than on men's
health. Men are also nowadays educationally disadvantaged significantly compared to
women; with the curriculum, the teaching methods and the resources being
designed to cater far more for women and girls than for men and boys. Men make up 80% of the homeless. There are more of them in
social service care-homes as
boys. They are many times more likely to be wrongfully arrested, wrongfully imprisoned, mugged, assaulted or murdered. They are 5 times more likely to lose their
children when families break down, 4 times more likely to lose their homes, 4 times more likely to commit suicide,
20 times more likely to be killed or injured at work, 20 times more likely to be
imprisoned, and, probably, more than 100 times more likely to be demeaned, denigrated and ridiculed by the
mainstream media. Men also pay much more in taxes than women but receive far
less in benefits from the government.
In other words, when compared to women, men are
significantly disadvantaged when it comes to their health, their lifespans, their homes, their
children, their education, their families, the tax burden, the law, the benefit
system, and even when it comes to their
own personal
safety.
They are nowadays also being heavily discriminated against in the work
place.
How is it possible, therefore, that women are being 'oppressed' more than men?
In what areas?
Where?
