High time to deliver on the Single Market, providing certainty and predictability for EU businesses and quality jobs (continuation of debate)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, today we are debating in this Chamber on certainty in the single market for European businesses. Well, let's talk about certainty; the certainty that only four of the world's 50 largest technology companies are European, the certainty that real income per person has grown almost twice as much in the United States as in Europe since 2000 and the certainty that 72% of this gap is explained by a single word: productivity. And what has been destroying European productivity and competitiveness for 20 years? Guess what: bureaucracy, regulation, interventionism, ideological costs of its European Green Deal... that is, Brussels. And the reality is that while 3,500 laws are passed in the United States in five years, here in Europe we passed 13,000. More than 60% of European companies already point to hyperregulation as a direct barrier to entry for investment. And what is this House's response to this dire situation? More Brussels and more regulation, because, through their "One Europe, One Market" plan, what they are demanding is the same as always: more centralisation and more control. I mean, it's more of the same thing that brought us here. Ladies and gentlemen, you have been applying the same wrong medicine for 20 years: European workers and businesses do not need a Commission to tell them how to hire, how to invest, how to produce or how to compete; what they need is legal certainty, affordable energy, less administrative burdens and freedom, freedom to innovate. The only thing companies need from Brussels is one thing: to have their feet removed from their necks at once.

Presentation of the Fertilisers Action Plan (debate)

Thank you for your question, Mr Nardella. You say we don't have any proposals. I think we are constantly putting forward proposals that would solve all the problems you create for our farmers. First, eliminate the CO tax market2, remove the ETS system, remove the CBAM. Because all these are costs - as I have told you - that the producer has to bear, while the rest of the world does not have to bear those costs. Fifteen times – I don’t know if you heard me: 15 times more – our producers have to pay compared to what producers abroad have to pay. If this seems to you to compete freely, I think you should review how you compete freely so that it can really be profitable for our producers. And finally, we have said it hundreds of times: Eliminate the European Green Deal. If it does not seem sufficient proposal, I think it is very clear.

Presentation of the Fertilisers Action Plan (debate)

Madam President, Commissioner, just a year ago many of us in this House warned that imposing tariffs on fertilisers while maintaining climate taxes was going to skyrocket the costs of the European countryside. And that's exactly what's happening today, we've seen it, the result is out there: hundreds of farmers demonstrating in front of this same building because fertilising their farm today costs them 70% more than just two years ago. The problem is not just war. The problem is not only external dependence. The problem is, above all, that Europe has decided to burden its own industry with energy and environmental costs that the rest of the world does not have. So that it is well understood: for every euro a foreign competitor pays in CO taxes2, the European producer pays 15 times more. But, yes, then we ask them to compete and sell at the same price. You call this climate policy, we call it industrial suicide. Today they had a golden opportunity to correct the course, instead this plan arrives late, without guaranteed money and without facing the main problems that continue to penalize our production. So, Commissioner, while we are debating here Europe is losing the ability to feed itself and there is one person responsible: You guys.

Women’s entrepreneurship in rural and island areas and outermost regions (debate)

Of course I believe that, in this society, women and men in Europe have equal rights. Of course I do. And if at some point – most importantly – a woman sees that her rights are not being fulfilled or are being violated, she has a constitutional guarantee in Spain, for example, and throughout Europe, to go to justice and denounce that her rights are not being fulfilled. You are here trying to manipulate the fact that there are injustices in society, that there are injustices, that there are machismos, that maybe some women have difficulties because of their personal circumstances. You are using these circumstances as if there is no guarantee here in Europe that these women can achieve their goals with all the guarantees in the world, because there is justice and a legislative framework that protects it. So what it cannot be is to use those situations to generate an ideological discourse that has nothing to do with being male or female. It has to do with the policies that from this Parliament you push to boost your ideological discourse, basically.

Women’s entrepreneurship in rural and island areas and outermost regions (debate)

Madam President, Commissioner, imagine a woman getting up before dawn to be able to carry out her exploitation. Now imagine that that same woman is listening to us here today talk about gender-sensitive infrastructures, talk about intersectional financial literacy. What do you think that young farmer would think? For this is exactly what is happening here today. We have a suffocated field, abandoned, with a lack of infrastructure, with funds that do not arrive, with bureaucracy, with a lack of generational renewal and they intend to make us believe that all this is a gender problem. Really? Do you really think that not all these problems are also faced by a young farmer or a young farmer who is struggling to get his farm off the ground? Ladies and gentlemen, the problem is not being a woman, the problem is her ideological policies: with more costs, more rules, more bureaucracy and, of course, with the unfair competition that both the People's Party and the Socialist Party like and encourage. And as the countryside unites, you respond with quotas, intersectionality and a gender perspective - even in the form of lettuce - when you should be talking about land, costs and access to credit. A farmer, Your Honor, does not need quotas, she does not need more ideology, she needs to be able to live from her work and she does not need to be explained her problems, she needs you to stop creating them, because in the countryside there are no men against women, there are people working from sun to sun against their policies.

How to secure a sustainable future for the EU livestock sector in light of the need to ensure food security, farmers’ resilience and the challenges posed by animal diseases? (debate)

Mr President, Commissioner, first of all we congratulate Mr Fidanza on this excellent report, and of course we are going to vote in favour because he recognises something essential: that livestock farming is strategic for Europe. However, I recognize that this debate is looking more like a play to me than a parliamentary debate, because I am listening to grand speeches that applaud the farmer, while what the farmers really feel out there is that this Parliament and this Commission are their worst enemy. And why? Well, very simple: because here they have their mouths full talking about profitability as long as they keep increasing their costs; because they speak of generational renewal, but have allowed Europe to lose almost 40% of its farmers in 20 years; because they talk about avoiding animal diseases, but they open the door wide to imports that they know do not comply with one tenth of our health and environmental regulations; because they also talk about food sovereignty while negotiating agreements that squander our field; and because they even defend – they say defend – the European farmer while voting in favour of Mercosur to replace them with farmers from Brazil. So, socialist and popular gentlemen, to defend livestock is not to say it here in a speech, it is not to sell your head out there.

Preventing sexual harassment in public institutions: latest revelations and resignations in Spain and institutional responses (debate)

I do not think I am the right person to answer your question as to why you do that, since my fellow socialists and communists should answer that question, who are the ones who encourage this massive uncontrolled immigration from countries – as you say – where women are worthless, countries that despise women, stone women, rape women and treat them as mere objects. If we massively import people from countries where women are despised, in the end we have Algeria in Spain, Algeria in Europe, and that is what we do not want, indeed, for women. Therefore, from VOX we say that these migration policies are a serious attack on the security of women.

Preventing sexual harassment in public institutions: latest revelations and resignations in Spain and institutional responses (debate)

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the main problem in protecting women in Spain is called 'socialism' and it is called 'Pedro Sánchez'. The Spanish left, with its "sueltavioladores" laws, its agents of inequality, its migration policies and its anti-maltreatment bracelets that do not work, has turned Spain into a true paradise for aggressors and rapists and into a hell for women. And, even so, the socialists run to take the picture in feminist demonstrations to the cry of "sister, I do believe you" while in their party, day yes and day also, scandals of harassment and prostitution erupt, but there they no longer believe the sisters, there the sisters give them completely the same. Because, I don't know if they knew, but false denunciations exist, although only when the aggressor is from the left. This is the socialist MeToo: I'm pricked too, but the chair is sacred. The best fight against sexual harassment, Commissioner, is for rapists and abusers to be held in prison until they rot in prison; that the socialist gangsters and puteros are held accountable to justice for the damage they have done to the Spaniards; and that those who profit from gender bars start looking for work, because we are going to end their business and we are going to reinvest all that money in really protecting women.

Amending certain CAP Regulations as regards the conditionality system, types of intervention in the form of direct payment, types of intervention in certain sectors and rural development and annual performance reports, data and interoperability governance, suspensions of payments annual performance clearance and controls and penalties (debate)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, today the Commission presumes here to simplify the CAP, right? But let me tell you the real translation: acknowledge, late and poorly, that they have strangled the European farmer. This reform is not a success; This is proof that Brussels has been wrong for years while the countryside continues to pay the price for its ecosuicidal ideological engineering. What really hurts our producers hasn't changed at all. Its PAC keeps intact environmental obligations and budget cuts and, what is almost worse, gives carte blanche to an openly enemy government of the countryside, such as the Government of Pedro Sánchez, to continue subduing and ruining the farmer. In Galicia, half (half!) of its dairy farms, which produce more than 40% of Spanish milk, have disappeared in just a decade. But every year in Spain they close dozens of family farms drowned by this CAP and by the costs that you impose from here. So, Commissioner, the European field is not asking for any more aesthetic touch-ups. What he's asking for is courage. And when this Europe has the opportunity to demonstrate this courage, it simply decides not to. So this simplification is simply disappointing.

Outcome of the UN Climate Change Conference - Belém (COP30) (debate)

Your Honour, I do not quite understand what the question is, but well, given your reflection, I will tell you that we are precisely the party of coherence here, because we do not want to prevent you from going by plane. On the contrary, we want everyone to be able to go by plane or in the transport that they decide. Those who forbid the popular classes and the workers to go by plane and in their cars are you while you take your private plane, go in business and go to their homes and mansions full of security and with their electric cars built in China too, a country that is the largest emitter of CO2, as you know. So lessons here of coherence, none. Secondly, about the damage you mentioned: It is very easy for the left to continue blaming climate change instead of taking responsibility for the policies that have led precisely to the increasing frequency of these phenomena. Why? Because you do not build watersheds and you establish policies that unprotect citizens and farmers.

Outcome of the UN Climate Change Conference - Belém (COP30) (debate)

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, today we are talking about your annual eco-posture gala, the COP30 gala: the red carpet - sorry, green - grand speeches and, of course, hundreds of private jets to return home fighting hard against climate change. But, if the show is really embarrassing, it is even more so that they come here to boast of having compensated the 130 000 tons of CO2 which you yourself generated with your Summit. This is equivalent, to be understood, to 80 000 European cars circulating for a whole year. But, yes, all this show to point out the worker who is driving to his work, to point out the farmer who produces food and, of course, so that the green and popular and socialists continue to ask for more climate ambition with a gender perspective or even a Treaty, as we have just heard, against fossil fuels. Meanwhile, the Commission itself recognises that 70% of European primary energy depends on these fossil fuels. Prohibit what sustains the European productive and logistic industrial fabric: Of course, this genius could only come out of you, gentlemen of the bipartisanship. In your climate metaverse these delusions may work, but in reality they don't, so keep on your green carpet that we will continue to defend those who produce and sustain our nations.

Gender Equality Strategy 2025 (debate)

Madam President, let's call things by their name. This Gender Equality Strategy is neither a strategy nor an equality strategy, it is an ideological tool to control European policies with a single purpose: destroy everything that makes women strong, such as family, identity, effort, unity and freedom. Where are the proposals here in this report that do help women? Where is the support for work-life balance, motherhood, access to housing, job stability? Where are they? Well, they're not, they don't exist. This left that presumes to be a feminist does not even know how to answer such a simple question as what is it to be a woman? It is limited to writing reports on malespheres, while they try to erase our biological reality and turn us into a kind of ideological construct that they themselves do not know how to define. They speak of abortion, moreover, as something liberating, when true freedom consists precisely in having all the tools to be able to choose life and not be pushed to destroy it. The left claims to fight for equality, but in reality, it massively imports cultures that deny that equality and, moreover, quiets mercilessly when the aggressor is an immigrant. So their feminism is not such, it is simply an ideological idea that aims to turn women into that, into a political tool to get a political return from them. On the left the woman does not hurt, it serves her.

Common agricultural policy (joint debate)

Mr President, Commissioner, it has been almost a year since you and Mrs von der Leyen promised that this would be the legislature of the dialogue with farmers; that, after years of normative asphyxiation, the field would once again be heard and respected. But the reality they offer is different: skyrocketing production costs, sunk prices and unfair trade agreements such as Mercosur, which threaten to wipe out entire sectors. We only had the CAP left, but even that: the Commission signed its death certificate in July with a cut of more than 22%, a success here of the popular and socialists who govern in Brussels. And, Commissioner, we have told you on countless occasions: we will support all those measures that benefit our primary sector, yes; No, we do support written and transparent contracts to give more security and bargaining power to those who need it most. We do support the revision of long-term contracts so that no farmer sells below their costs. We do support strengthening cooperatives and producer organisations so that they can negotiate under the best conditions. And yes, of course, we support more incentives for young people, because without generational renewal there is no future for the European countryside. What we are not just going to validate is its rectification policy after verifying that its ecofanatic policies and its European Green Deal only lead us to misery, abandonment and depopulation. The simplification of the CAP must be real and complete. So, Commissioner, bring back to the field the three words that Brussels has forgotten: productivity, profitability and competitiveness.

Summer of heatwaves in the EU: addressing the causes and providing adequate housing and health policies to address record-breaking temperatures (debate)

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Commissioner, you, from the Commission, have turned climate into religion and fear into politics, because every heat wave is sold here as if it were the apocalypse, when really, for example, in Spain the worst heat wave took place more than 20 years ago, in 2003, when more than 13 000 people died. You mentioned here figures that do not reach 2 000 people. Therefore, the heatwaves - this apocalypse that you want to present to us - are nothing new. Heat waves have repeated over time, with different frequency and with different intensity. What is new is not the climate, but its European Green Deal, which has been running since 2019. In this demonic European Green Deal you ban clearings, pursue grazing and have turned the mountain into a gas can, waiting for a spark to catch on. And here we have the result. In Spain this summer we have had - as you know - more than 200 fires, of which it is true that a third of them have been caused by arsonists, yes, but all of them fed and aggravated by their "ecofanatic" policies. So the criminal lights the match and you, with your policies, fan the flames.

China’s unjustified decision to impose duties on imports of pork products from the EU and the need to support European farmers and workers (debate)

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, once again, our farmers are once again the target of geopolitical disputes that they have not provoked. This is what has happened, for example, with the United States, where they have accepted a 15% tariff on our exports while the Commission opened the market wide to vulnerable sectors, such as nuts. But they are also currently suffering from the negotiation of Mercosur, where the Commission – with premeditation and treachery – is trying to close a trade agreement that it knows, in advance, will be lethal for our countryside and for our rural areas. And now, in addition, China, because our farmers are hostages of an unfounded investigation in retaliation for the European tariffs on the Chinese electric car. And we owe all this to Mrs von der Leyen, a successful European Commission negotiator who is unable to defend, firmly, those who produce, today, the best pigmeat in the world. Every negotiation in Brussels ends with the same result: The European countryside is the one that pays the bill, and each bill is another step towards the ruin of our farmers and ranchers. That is why we say, Commissioner, that you are not building Europe: They're digging it.

Electricity grids: the backbone of the EU energy system (debate)

Mr González Casares, I think that to say that renewables had nothing to do with the blackout is to lie and be a little irresponsible, because that day, precisely, 71% of electricity generation in Spain was renewable – 58%, specifically, was solar: asynchronous sources without the ability to stabilize the network when the frequency fell. And Vox does not say this, I do not say it, the government's own report says it: There was a lack of synchronous generation and firm technologies that could maintain the system. So, indeed, renewables are not the enemy. The problem is to impose them at any price, without planning, without a clear strategy, without backup and without a network that supports it. That's what caused the collapse: its ideology and its energy policy, tremendously ideological, without any strategy, planning or common sense.

Electricity grids: the backbone of the EU energy system (debate)

Madam President, this report confirms exactly what VOX has been denouncing for years, which is that they have put millions of Europeans at risk with a tremendously ideological, accelerated and technically unfeasible energy transition. Your energy model has been designed, ladies and gentlemen, to fail: because they have replaced firm, synchronous technologies, such as nuclear or hydraulics, with intermittent, asynchronous generation without sufficient backing. They have demolished our energy sovereignty, that of all Europeans, in the name of the European Green Deal. They have turned this Pact into their climate religion, and we saw the result on 28 April, when Spain went dark, when at least ten people died – my condolences from here to their families – and when we suffered more than €1.6 billion in losses. Fifty-one days later, the Government of Spain has limited itself to handing out blames as pamphlets, while we have had to witness here the embarrassing situation of a former minister of energy ruin and her current commissioner, Teresa Ribera, who ran away, fleeing the debate of the blackout. The network has not failed, ladies and gentlemen, its ideology has failed. You've failed, again.

Deliberations of the Committee on Petitions in 2023 (debate)

Mr President, this Parliament today has a historic opportunity to live up to the principles it claims to uphold, because what has happened in Spain with the amnesty law is a frontal attack on the rule of law and on the equality of citizens before the law. This report mentions, for the first time, the treason involved in amnesty for criminals convicted of violating the constitutional order in exchange for the handful of votes that Pedro Sánchez needed to be able to continue clinging to power, so this Parliament can no longer look the other way: If it is indeed the home of European democracy, today it must unambiguously condemn this infamy, out of respect for Spain and the Spanish people. And although we know that the Socialists are extremely stingy and embarrassed about this point, for VOX it is so crucial that our final vote will depend on it; Because today not only one report is voted on, it is voted on whether this House stands with the citizens and justice or with those who trample and twist the law to remain in power.
