For the 16th year in succession auditors have failed to sign off the EU accounts claimimg that about £4 billion has been spent unwisely. Apparently farmers have been paid for crops that they didn't grow and animals have been double counted.
It is becoming an annual farce which, if the EU commissioners had a modicum of shame, would be addressed. The fact that they continue to ignore this embarrassing situation emphasises the incompetence which member countries should protest against.
If they can squander £4billion in a year then they have no right to ask for any increase in contributions. I still cannot believe that almost everyone of our leading politicians are quite happy to continue to support such a level of incompetence and waste. It is a modern day scandal.
