European Union (Finance) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Kelvin Hopkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 11 June 2015. It occurred during Debate on bills on European Union (Finance) Bill.

Returning to the issue of the structural fund income to Britain, would it not be easier if we had control of those funds? We could allocate them better, and we would be better off by not having to contribute to the budget. Would it not be more sensible to have regional funds repatriated to Britain, so our Government can decide what and where to spend?
