Simplification of certain CAP rules (C9-0120/2024) (vote)
Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to make a point of order under Rule 200 of the Rules of Procedure. Farmers have been protesting for months because they cannot make a living from their work, because they are subject to unfair competition, because they see agro-industry and large-scale distribution filling their pockets on their backs. We have solutions: end the Mercosur agreement, cap CAP aid to better redistribute it, reintroduce price regulation tools and introduce social security for food. Regrettably, this reform, voted on catimini, without debate, as a matter of urgency, far from democratic standards, at the limit of legality if I believe this note from the legal services, only emptys the CAP of its few nature protection measures. Colleagues, who benefits from your crusade against the Green Deal? In any case, not to the peasants, because without nature, more peasants and more food sovereignty. So, before this House does the irreparable thing, I ask, Madam President, for the vote to be postponed on behalf of the Greens/EFA Group.
