lpv:spoken text	"I welcome this report which calls for more funding for the proposed European programmes to combat poverty and social exclusion. Cooperation between Member States is crucial for tackling these deep rooted problems that exist all across the EU, but particularly in my own constituency in the North-West of England. Moss Side and Salford are amongst the most deprived inner city areas in the whole of Europe. We are sadly all too familiar with the spider's web of problems impoverished areas face – deprivation, social exclusion, unemployment, crime and drug abuse, but with the help of European schemes tackling social exclusion and European cash, local communities can begin to free themselves from this evil tangle. The British Labour Government has been leading the fight against poverty and social exclusion. Three years ago, the Prime Minister set up the Social Exclusion Unit which coordinates government action to reduce social exclusion by producing joined up solutions to joined up problems. It works with other departments which have a close bearing on social exclusion. I fully endorse this innovative measure that has benefited many young people in particular, through strong action on truancy and school exclusion, sleeping rough, teenage pregnancy and providing support to 16-18 year olds not in education, employment or training. This is a great example of the Labour Government delivering concrete benefits to ordinary people. With a new, radical approach, I strongly believe that we can, not only turn the corner, but reach the finishing line too and, one day, banish poverty and social exclusion from the North-West entirely."@en1
