10:31 am
americas and see corporate protests in boston with a fierce response from the police reportedly beat out war veterans taking part in a peaceful rally the movement that started in new york continue to engulf a growing number of us. by next year when we talk to. the former chief accountant for the european commission she says that brussels only cares about propping up the idea of the e.u. however much the budget grows the discussion is now. i'm talking to mark to address and he's now a member of the european parliament for the u.k. independence party but she was formerly the european commission's chief accountant while she was in that job she raised concerns about flaws in the commission's accounting system which she said left it vulnerable to fraud and dress and thanks
10:32 am
for talking to us today now were you a euro skeptic when you joined the commission as chief accountant no i was not the euro skeptic in fact i thought the euro project was such a project of cooperation i thought they were sharing solutions among the different member states so i was quite owners to be able to be part of the european union and also on or to be part of our reforms that they were undergoing what happened or what did you find out to make you change your mind when they found out that the have no control on the payments they were making out of the european union budget basically you know they didn't ask if people qualified to get the funding from the european union and i was responsible for the signature of the us so i had the highest responsibility and i thought i needed to know all playing to
10:33 am
the life person and for the right purpose and they just didn't care and they didn't allow me to make change use to be able to determine if we were making the right brain and so what does what does that all mean well this means that you funding it's going to people who do not qualify for these who do not need the funding and who you should for other purposes and this is really dangerous because you know there are many other purposes for which the money cunt you just. when they raised the money from the peon taxpayers they are short of saying this is going to be used for certain. it's. a certain extent they are lying to the europeans actually i thought i was working on behalf of the european taxpayer and my obligation was to make sure the payments were correct others didn't
10:34 am
see it like that they did that in fact he works for blowing the whistle do you think anything's changed since i don't think anything has changed i now see it in the budgetary control committees for the committee in the parliament that oversee the payments out of the budget and i see it in the budget committee that the committee that oversees the planning of the budget and in both committees i can see that they have no respect for european taxpayers' money and i don't see the fundamental changes that they should not have taken plates they don't want anybody who makes of payments in a normal rate. here that. would ask the question what is this pain and. what is the purpose and this question are not asked why they can touch. the solution is to blame the member states only gave the money to the u.k. so you craig was committing the irregularities well yes acute the money out that
10:35 am
you are the proper questions but they don't so for me nothing has changed a lot of window dressing but nothing in this and are you suggesting that the commission is being defrauded is and if so who by. well it's being the products to a certain extent. talking about fraud it's always very problematic because obviously you have to prove it and it's very difficult to prove fraud in places where you don't have adequate systems to control ok there is no all the tray so it's very difficult to to prove it but you know there are beneficiaries who are getting the money without being qualified to get the money that they say yes and so the situation but do you think brussels is capable of reform is there a will to tighten prices like that up you know i don't think that it's any will to tighten this track this is because they have
10:36 am
a different agenda they want to promote the european union project and to promote this project is going to be able to get the money to the people who will support it not the people who really care about their lives. in a proper way not the people who are going to use this to grow the economy for certain members but the people who will promote the european union project how deeply entrenched you think vested interests are and brussels who are the real power players well from my experience in the commission fundamentally but also now that i'm in parliament a powerful people in the you are the directors general in the european commission the european commission press the friend directorates with different substantive issues you happen by remained a part of me in agriculture and this direct to the generals are the ones with all
10:37 am
the part you know the commissioners come and go every five years but this director general normally have been there for decades and they hold the power they know who they need to give the funding to get the support where in times of austerity at the moment and members all. across europe are cutting their state spending is there any sign that brussels is doing the same now absolutely you know last night we spent six hours up proving in the budget committee the two thousand and twelve budget and they have what they are asking for a over four percent increase i won't even asking for the increases but fundamentally saying we should that least with the usually allowances for the any please and they want to review them. i think we should show the example and the areas we use them search don't want any reduction. and the council of
10:38 am
ministers at the size that they wouldn't give more than a two percent increase and here the parliament goes back and say no we want more than four percent please so i don't think there is no will and i am a lonely voice really in the parliament in quietly first reduction of the budget and ultimately it's your goal to as it were destroyed the system from where they're ultimately my role or my goal is to make people are in the u.k. i don't screw around the rest of you know the truth about the european union you know the truth about how their money is being spent this is my job and then it's up to people to react to this new information or to this information and it's not only for something you know we are now in the middle of a crises and people saying well the you've got youth has nothing to do with price
10:39 am
but i will give you an example grapes was brought into the european into the euro zone when he didn't qualify for it intrigue now people say greece lives while. in that account but. european commission process that this ticks off its uterus that who should have challenged the figures and they didn't challenge that side. ten years later they realise all something is wrong but they are there they have one thousand people working in you are stacked two are liason figures they should have come another thing the budget was used to grow the economy of all these countries that came into the universal. reef's got sixty billion pounds in the last twenty years out of the european union budget the question is were there the money to go because the economy has not grown so where did the money grow william
10:40 am
hague to get his foreign secretary says that the e.u. budget is now under control is that the truth and i think it's not the truth i have trial and. speech because he doesn't know. he thinks the sound control because he's asking for it in the budget but while he was talking about the freeze there was somebody in the budget committee was trying to vote in favor of an increase of four percent so it's not under control and also. you know we don't know exactly where the money is callie and i think we should know it's visible for everybody you know as i told you why you said that greece hasn't run its economy italy spain portugal. what are all the structural reforms that we have been paying for the last thing. you know it's not under control the members of parliament here in the u.k.
10:41 am
now look set to hold a debate on whether there should be a referendum on britain's membership of the european union do you think britain is hooked on the e.u. despite talking about wanting to lean. well i think that the government might be hooked to the european union i don't think that the country as a whole is hopefully i think. they do cade courtley european union negotiate another type of relationship when there are people who are very critical about what would happen how would the trade but the u.k. trade down existed before the european union try think it could go back to the days . they u.k. it's one of the biggest importers from the european union so forty two percent of the imports come from the european union so i think they you place in a very solid position. and i think it would be healthy not only for
10:42 am
the u.k. but for the rest of the member states because it would force a renewed association of the european union and all the trade agreements that we have i don't see of course this doesn't happen in twenty four hours i mean of course now we have seventy percent of the legislation coming from the you of course that would be interim period or the u.k. would have to develop new legislation of its own i mean of course it doesn't happen in twenty four hours but we first have to make the decision to leave and then. start the process euro zone countries are staring down the barrel of a gun basically what e.u. grantees are talking about is in forcing more fiscal union in in the face of economic collapse which seems like a desperate measure who stands to gain the most from keeping europe together i think it's the director is generally bureaucracy in brussels stunts the game is
10:43 am
this people who have been pushing the project all along and they want this european union who are they will hold the power over all the member states and finally as a euro skeptic do you feel any way vindicated by what's going on in the euro zone and moments. sadly yes i feel kate because you know if people had heard and had sort of responded to my claims that he was a go. maybe this wouldn't have happened so yes i think you've indicated that it's sad to say this because we could have prevented all that's happening today trying to us and thank you very much thank you. for the longest big game hunting history. he was trying to stall that day to.
