Amendment no 134 to the EU budget has failed by 335 votes to 222. It would have prevented the EU funding countries and programs which perpetrate such human rights abuses as forced abortions and coercive sterilisations as part of a population control policy. According to Kathy Sinnnott's office some 20 British MEPs voted against Amendment 134".
