Vsi vedo, da je to absurdno, saj spodbuja kreativno računovodstvo in prisiljuje evropske stranke, da svojih računov nimajo urejenih," pa je stanje opisal britanski liberalec Andrew Duff .
Luciano Bardi of the EUDO Observatory on Political Parties and Representation believes that limiting funding would place "huge limits on the possibility of developing new political parties".
Kako je z denarjem?
Politics - can the people be mobilised?
EU sicer letno za evropske politične stranke nameni 8,4 milijona evrov, pri čemer ta denar pod nobenimi pogoji ne sme biti porabljen za financiranje nacionalnih strank.
Annemie Neyts-Uyttebroeck , President of the European Liberal Democrat and Reform Party (ELDR), spoke of the challenges the parties face: "The ELDR is about to start a recruitment campaign as the momentum for encouraging people to become members of a political party is not as strong as it was until some time ago."
Evropske stranke ne smejo sprejemati anonimnih prispevkov, pri čemer donacije ne smejo presegati 12,000 evrov letno na donatorja.
Both Monica Frassoni (European Green Party EGP) and Eric Defoort , President of European Free Alliance (EFA), stressed the fundamental importance of "youth organisations" both on formative thinking and in creating the party.
Prav tako je prepovedano sprejemati prispevke od podjetij, v katerih ima država prevladujočo vlogo.
Pierre Laurent , President of the Party of the European Left (PEL) called for the "democratic development of European political parties and structures to allow citizens to participate".
"Če ne daste denarja strankam, še preden pridejo nekje v parlament, potem je to velika ovira za nastanek novih političnih strank," je komentiral Luciano Bardi , direktor italijanskega inštituta EUDO, ki spremlja delovanje političnih strank v Evropi.
Portuguese MEP Paulo Rangel (EPP) raised the issue of membership: "We should clearly accept the individual membership.
Sicer lahko evropske politične stranke do 40 odstotkov svojega proračuna dobijo od nacionalnih strank, evropsko financiranje pa ne sme presegati 75 odstotkov.
Probably there are some people in our countries who would like to be a member of a European party, but they don't want to be members of their national parties."
Obstajajo posamezniki, ki bi radi bili člani evropskih, ne pa tudi nacionalnih strank," je menil portugalski poslanec Paulo Rangel (EPP) , medtem ko je Eric Defoort iz EFA opozoril, da se je treba izogibati preveliki razdrobljenosti evropskega političnega prostora.

Agora državljanov o načinih zmanjševanja revščine v Evropi
People's Agora looks at ways of reducing poverty across Europe
Agoro je odprl predsednik Parlamenta Jerzy Buzek, ki je poudaril pomen izmenjave idej na področju zmanjševanja revščine.
Parliament's President Jerzy Buzek opened the Session and stressed the importance of the Agora in the exchange of ideas of how to deal with poverty.
Skupina brezdomcev se je v Parlamentu predstavila kot pevski zbor Au clair de la rue.
A group of homeless people and volunteers from France who have formed a Choir - "Au clair de la rue" - perform in the Parliament's Chamber.
Poslanka Isabelle Durant odpira konferenco konsenza.
Isabelle Durant MEP opening the "Consensus Conference": "The problem is that we don't want to see poverty and that is why it is hidden under the carpet.
"Težava je v tem, da revščine nočemo videti, potiskamo jo pod preprogo," je dejala.
We have concrete suggestions for what to do" she said.
Na konferenci konsenza se je srečalo 20 posameznikov, starejših od 60 let in z razmeroma nizkimi prihodki.
The "Consensus Conference" for those over 60 facing poverty brought together people from different countries across Europe.
Agoro sta odprla predsednik Parlamenta Jerzy Buzek in evropski komisar za zaposlovanje László Andor.
The Agora conference was opened by Parliament's President Jerzy Buzek and the European Commissioner for Employment László Andor.
"Prisotne je bilo veliko jeze, ne proti nam, ampak proti načinu, na katerega se ukvarja z revščino," je vzdušje na delavnicah opisala podpredsednica Parlamenta Isabelle Durant , ki je tudi menila, da je Evropa veliko naredila za gospodarstvo, pomanjkljivo pa se je odrezala pri zaščiti najbolj ranljivih.
Belgian Green MEP Isabelle Durant (who co-chaired the Agora) said in the press conference that "in the workshops there has been a lot of anger - not against us but in the way poverty has been dealt with - Europe has done a lot for economy but not enough to protect the most vulnerable parts of society".
Po njihovem mnenju bi se morale pokojnine usklajevati s cenami, oproščene pa bi morale biti tudi davkov.
They also discussed ways in which the Europe Union could help them.
Starejše ljudi bi morali aktivno vključevati v različne kulturne dejavnosti, ne pa jih iz njih izključevati.
One of the main recommendations of the groups was that pensions should be indexed to the standard of living and should be free from taxation.
Tukaj bi morala pomagati EU, še posebej invalidom, so bili prepričani udeleženci.
In addition they want the a change in the culture in the way elderly people are treated so they are encouraged to be full members of society rather than closed off and isolated.
Zavzeli so se tudi za več tečajev za uporabo informacijskih tehnologij in prost dostop do njih.
The group also thought that easier and cheaper access to technology such as telephone calls and internet access could help older people both financially and in terms of making they feel included in society.
EU bi morala omogočiti brezplačne telefonske klice in nižje cene za dostop do medmrežja, so poudarili.
Adapting tools for older people was also considered important.

Je WikiLeaks demokraciji v svetu dala krila, ali jo ogrozila?
Did the WikiLeaks incidents create more or less democracy in the world?
Poslanca Christian Engström (zgoraj) in Eduard Kukan WikiLeaks je na svoji spletni strani od leta 2006 objavila več kot milijon občutljivih , zaupnih diplomatskih dokumentov.
Swedish MEP Christian Engström (top) and Slovak Member Eduard Kukan debate the pros & cons of WikiLeaks.
Zaradi tega nekateri organizacijo slavijo kot borko za demokracijo, medtem ko drugi opozarjajo, da je z objavami ogrozila normalno delovanje diplomacije po svetu.
But has WikiLeaks strengthened democracy and will the disclosure of hundreds of thousands of secret documents change the way modern diplomats interact?
O tem smo se pogovarjali s poslancema, ki imata o WikiLeaks zelo različna mnenja: Christianom Engströmom (Zeleni/EFA) iz švedske piratske stranke in nekdanjim slovaškim zunanjim ministrom Eduardom Kukanom (EPP).
We asked two MEPs with very different views: Christian Engström (Greens/EFA) from the Swedish Pirate Party and former Slovak Foreign Minister Eduard Kukan (EPP).
Gospod Engström, švedska piratska stranka se je lani odločila, da bo na svojih strežnikih brezplačno gostila WikiLeaks.
Mr. Engström, the Pirate Party decided last year to host servers free of charge for the WikiLeaks website.
Ravno nasprotno, menimo, da je nevarna organizacija, posebej za korumpirane režime, ki imajo kaj skrivati.
CE: We do indeed consider it a dangerous website, especially for corrupt regimes that have something to hide.
Prav to je tisto, kar imamo pri WikiLeaks radi.
That’s exactly what we like about it.
Preglednost je nujna za odprto demokratično vladanje.
We think transparency is a very important part of an open democratic government.
Pomembno je vedeti, da skušnjave po prikrivanju informacij obstajajo povsod.
It's important to remember that the tendency to cover up things exists everywhere.
Da, WikiLeaks predstavlja nevarnost za vsakega oblastnika, ki želi kaj prikriti.
So yes, WikiLeaks is dangerous to anyone in power who has something to hide.
Gospod Kukan, predsednik Evropske komisije Barroso pravi, da WikiLeaks ne deluje vedno v interesu javnosti.
Mr. Kukan, according to European Commission President José Manuel Barroso, WikiLeaks does not always serve the public interest.
Meni, da nekatere informacije ne bi smele biti razkrite.
He thinks that certain information should not be disclosed.
Kaj menite o tem?
What is your position on this?
Verjamem, da je svoboda informacij temelj modernih demokratičnih sistemov.
EK: I am in favour of freedom of information as a cornerstone of modern democratic systems.
Vsi smo ljudje, če nekaj narediš, potem je vedno nekaj za tem.
However WikiLeaks' activities have had a damaging impact.
Pri tem sem prepričan, da namen WikiLeaks ni bil razkrivanje pozitivnih in konstruktivnih stvari.
And I don’t think that the intention of WikiLeaks was to disclose positive and constructive things to the public.
Ne verjamem, da so bili njihovi nameni žlahtni in spoštljivi.
I don't believe that the intention was noble and respectful.
Pri nekaterih vprašanjih je treba med partnerji izgraditi zaupanje.
On certain issues you need to create trust between partners, you need to believe in each other.
Ne zato, ker javnost ne bi imela pravice biti obveščena, ampak zato, ker morajo biti stvari pripravljene diskretno.
Not because the public has no right to be informed but because things need to be kept discreet.
Ko se diplomati pogajajo o sporazumih, lahko objava dokumentov podre celoten proces.
When diplomats are negotiating arrangements it can destroy the whole process if documents are published.
Uniči lahko dobre stvari, ki bi prišle iz uspešno izpogajanjega sporazuma.
It can destroy the good things which could come up as a result of the negotiations.
Nekateri menijo, da več preglednosti krepi demokracijo.
Some people argue that more transparency strengthens democracy.
Je WikiLeaks prispevala k prizadevanjem za več demokracije v svetu?
Do you believe that WikiLeaks has contributed to democracy in the World?
Engström: Mislim, da zelo, saj je preglednost eden izmed temeljev demokracije.
CE: Yes, very much so, since transparency is one of the fundamental points of a democracy.
Zakaj sploh imeti volitve, če se ne ve, kaj vlada in opozicija sploh delata.
What is the point of allowing people to vote, if they are not given any information about what the government or opposition is doing?
Cilj bi moral biti, da obveščeni ljudje sprejemajo informirane odločitve.
The goal in a democracy must be to have informed citizens making informed choices.
Cilj Wikileaks je sporočiti vsem vladajočim, naj ne verjamejo, da se bodo izmuznili, če prikrivajo stvari oz. o njih lažejo.
The larger goal of WikiLeaks is to make it obvious to all governments: Don't believe that you'll get away with hiding or lying about things.
Posredno s tem WikiLeaks prispeva k temu, da bodo vlade v prihodnje morda bolj pregledne in poštene.
The indirect effect of WikiLeaks is that governments will start to become more transparent and more honest.
Kukan: No, rad bi vam dal neposreden odgovor, da me ne boste obtožili diplomatskega izmikanja, ampak včasih takšnega odgovora pač ni.
EK: Well, I would like to give you a straight answer so that you don't accuse me of diplomatic pirouettes, but sometimes there is no such answer.
Do neke mere lahko imajo objave WikiLeaks morda res pozitiven učinek.
I can to a certain extent admit that the WikiLeaks' publications may have certain positive aspects.
V državah, kjer so na oblasti diktatorski režimi, je pozitivni učinek objav bolj očiten, bolj močan.
In those countries where there is a dictatorial regime, the positive things are more evident and more intense.
Tako da ne obsojam vseh objav.
So I am not condemning everything that was published.
Ampak mora pa obstajati meja med tem, kar je lahko objavljeno s ciljem zagotoviti kar največjo obveščenost za vse, in tistim, kar ne bi smelo biti objavljeno, saj lahko ogrozi diskretne, zasebne odnose med politiki in državniki.
But there should be a line between what can be published to expand the freedom of access to information for everybody and what should not be published in order not to damage discreet personal relationships.
Kdo je tisti, ki naj bi odločal o tem, kaj se lahko objavi in kaj ne?
But who should decide which information can be disclosed?
Naj bo to vodstvo WikiLeaks, ali naj se odločitve prepustijo visokim diplomatskim in političnim predstavnikom?
Should it for instance be up to the leadership of WikiLeaks or should such decisions be left to top level diplomats and politicians?
Engström: Slednjim jih ne bi smeli prepustiti.
CE: No it shouldn't.
To bi reklo tudi vodstvo WikiLeaks.
The leadership of WikiLeaks, would be the first ones to say the same thing.
Kar hočejo oni in kar hočem tudi jaz, je, da bi obstajalo več spletnih strani, na katerih bi se razkritja objavljalo.
What they want, and what I want, is many more sites where it's possible to leak safely.
Če bi obstajala samo ena spletna stran za te namene, potem bi jo morali nadzorovati, saj bi imela ogromno moč.
If there was only one leak site then they would be the powerful ones and we would need to watch them.
Če pa je takšnih strani več, potem te težave ni.
However, if there are many different sites then this problem goes away.
Kukan: Ljudje na WikiLeaks bi morali vedeti, kaj objaviti in kaj naj ostane skrivnost.
EK: The people from WikiLeaks should have the sense to understand what can go to public and what should be kept secret.
Ampak kriterije za to bi moralo oblikovati politično vodstvo.
But the criteria should be very precisely defined by a political leadership.
Mislim, da to vprašanje ni za referendum.
I don't think this is a good subject for a referendum.
Politični voditelji včasih zagovarjajo ideje, ki jih ljudje v popolnosti zavračajo, ker jih ne razumejo, a zgodovina nato pokaže, da so imeli politiki prav.
Political leaders sometimes come up with ideas which are totally rejected because people don’t understand them but afterwards the history shows that those politicians were right.
Bo afera WikiLeaks vplivala na prihodnjo strukturo mednarodnih odnosov in na način, kako diplomati komunicirajo med seboj?
Will WikiLeaks affect the future structure of international relations and the ways diplomats interact with each other?
Engström: Realnost se je preprosto spremenila.
CE: Reality has changed.
Vse vlade in veleposlaništva se morajo sedaj zavedati, da je lahko njihovo prikrivanje informacij neuspešno.
Governments and embassies and everybody in power have to take into consideration the fact that if you try to keep secrets you are now much more likely to fail.
Mislim, da je to dobro, še posebej, kar se tiče odnosov med državami.
I think that's a good thing, especially when it comes to relationships between countries.
Tisto, kar hočemo, je odprtost.
What we want is openness.
Odprtost vdihuje zaupanje in zmanjšuje tveganja.
Openness breathes confidence and reduces the risks.
Ko veliki igralci ne vedo, kaj načrtuje druga stran, to pri njih vzbuja sume.
When the big players are not entirely sure what the other side is planning they tend to be more suspicious.
To je bila logika hladne vojne.
This was the logic during the Cold War.
V splošnem bo torej odprtost dolgoročno zmanjšala mednarodne napetosti, kar bo pripeljalo do boljšega, bolj stabilnega sveta.
So generally speaking, openness will in the long run help to reduce international tensions and we will therefore see a better and more stable world.
Kukan: Menim, da bo vpliv na diplomatska pogajanja v prihodnosti negativen.
EK: I think that it's going to affect the future process of diplomatic negotiations negatively.
Tisti, katerih ime je bilo omenjeno, bodo zaradi te omembe bolj previdni in manj odprti!
Those who were mentioned by name will have it in the back of their minds and they will be more cautious and less open!
Diplomatsko in politično življenje po objavah WikiLeaks prav gotovo ne bo potekalo tako kot doslej.
So I agree with those who say that diplomatic or political life will no longer be the same after the WikiLeaks publications.

Poslanci bi z davkom na finančne transakcije brzdali trge in polnili proračune
MEPs push forward plans for financial transaction tax
Davek na finančne transakcije bi bil dobrodošel vir proračunskih prihodkov, obrzdal pa bi tudi špekulante na finančnih trgih. ©BELGA/EUREKA Davkoplačevalci bodo denar, s katerim so vlade reševale bankirje, da bi se tako izognile potopu finančnega sistema, vračali še dolgo.
Illustration image of stock exchange quotations ©BELGA/EUREKA The current economic situation, austerity measures and bank bail-outs have hit budgets, and in these hard times, there's a need to find new measures of financing at EU level.
Breme javnega dolga sedaj zahteva varčevanje na vseh področjih, proračunske luknje bodo države skušale zapolniti tudi z višjimi davki.
A non-legislative report on "Innovative financing" by Greek Socialist Anni Podimata backed by Parliament's Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee Tuesday (1 February) suggests an EU financial transaction tax (FTT) could help finance budgets, reduce public deficits and fight speculation.
Evropski poslanci pa predlagajo še eno rešitev: uvedbo davka na finančne transakcije.
In the aftermath of the financial crisis, the idea of taxing banks has been widespread, though not consensual.
Ta ne bi samo obrzdal špekulativnih finančnih poslov, ampak bi na letni ravni v proračune držav EU prinesel 200 milijard evrov.
While many countries have expressed a wish and need to tax the financial sector, suggestions range in scope and type of tax.
Tako pravi poročilo o inovativnem financiranju grške socialdemokratke Anni Podimata , ki ga je odbor Evropskega parlamenta za gospodarske in denarne zadeve sprejel 1. februarja.
After the vote, Ms Podimata said "now is the right moment for the EU, which has the largest financial market in the world, to give a convincing reply to EU citizens by achieving a clear position in favour of the introduction of a tax on financial transactions."
Razprave o davku že dlje časa
Small tax for a big impact
Parlament sicer ni prvi, ki se je zavzel za tak davek.
of between 0.01% and 0.05%, to limit the risk of transaction flows
Dogovora sicer še ni na vidiku, saj obstajajo različna mnenja o tem, katere finančne transakcije obdavčiti in na kakšen način.
Has clearly defined exemptions and thresholds, taking into account the needs of the retail sector and small investors and individuals.
Udarec za finančni sektor v EU?
Critics argue that introducing the tax only in the EU will negatively affect competitiveness.
Davek sicer podpira tudi Evropska komisija, vendar na globalni ravni, kjer bi prinesel do 650 milijard prihodkov.
Swedish Liberal Olle Schmidt said, "I believe that a large part of the European financial sector would simply move to other jurisdictions, and probably to less transparent jurisdictions than the European one.
Podimata je kljub temu optimistična: "Pričakujemo, da bodo države EU upoštevale mnenje Parlamenta in dale prepričljiv odgovor na njegove predloge."
Many different ideas on how the revenues would be spent exist within EU," Mr Schmidt said.
Dvojna dividenda: več denarja, manj nestabilnosti
However, the rapporteur is optimistic.
"Glavna prednost tega inovativnega finančnega instrumenta je, da lahko hkrati prispeva k doseganju več pomembnih ciljev, npr. stabilnosti finančnih trgov in večjih proračunskih prihodkov," razlaga Podimata.
"It is up to the Council and Member States to follow and give a convincing reply to Parliament's call for a tax on financial transactions.

Potrebni so ukrepi za olajšanje položaja staršem samohranilcem
Women's Rights Committee debates situation of Europe's single mothers
Več storitev za enostarševske družine in uvedba minimalnega dohodka bi bila koraka v pravo smer.
A recent survey of women called for more flexible working hours and easier access to childcare.
Italijanska poslanka Barbara Matera (EPP) , ki bo spisala poročilo o ukrepih na tem področju, pravi, da število samskih mater, ki se soočajo z revščino, hitro raste.
Italian MEP Barbara Matera (EPP) who will draft Parliament's report on the subject spoke of the "exponentially growing number of mothers in poverty".
Diskriminacijo na osnovi spola je treba odpraviti, je poudarila in opozorila, da morajo biti tudi očetje odgovorno vključeni v prizadevanja za boljše ravnotežje med družinskim in poklicnim življenjem.
She underlined importance of ending gender discrimination, ensuring responsibility of fathers and conditions for conciliating family and working life.
"Moj oče je umrl, ko sem bila otrok, mati je morala sama vzgojiti šest otrok," je svojo izkušnjo delila poslanka.
My father died when I was a child and my mother succeeded in bringing us all up – 6 children – to the citizens that we have now become”.
"To je zapravljanje družbenega in kulturnega materiala," je dejala.
“Lone parenthood is still seen as a deviation from the regarding classic model” she said "but if the potential of single parents is not used social and cultural capital is wasted".
Raziskovalka Laura Alipranti iz grškega centra za družbene raziskave pa je dejala, da poroka in starševstvo nista več tako povezana kot v preteklosti.
Laura Alipranti, from the Centre for Social Research (EKKE), in Greece provided evidence that "marriage and parenting are becoming increasingly disconnected".
Otrok, ki se rodijo izven zakona, je v EU že 37 odstotkov, medtem ko jih je v nordijskih državah že skoraj 50 odstotkov, prav Aliprantijeva, ki enostarševsko družino definira kot najmanj enega odvisnega otroka, za katerega skrbi en starš.
She pointed out those extramarital births now account for 37% of the total in the European Union and in some Nordic countries that figure is nearly 50%.
Tudi očetje morajo prispevati svoje
Father's should also be involved
