For the fifth edition of EP news, the web-magazine dedicated to European Parliament news, we will focus on the negotiations for the European Union Budget 2012, which take place this week at the European Parliament in Strasbourg. A vote will take place on Wednesday 26th October. It is a sensitive subject as this year the European deputies want an increase in European spending, and the Member states, advocating austerity, will strongly oppose this.
