We will be voting against this new liberal theme tune. The ‘structural reform’ of the labour market that it advocates translates as increased insecurity in employment contracts. This is basically the policy conducted throughout Europe and, far from wanting to “continue and speed this up”, we want instead to put an end to it. We would not be against creating an “appropriate environment to foster investment” as long as this did not involve making even more profit, when it is private consumption by employees that enables investment to be sustained.
As for retirement, we are still on the front line, battling against these alleged ‘reforms’, which, in actual fact, signify a move towards private insurance schemes. We are also totally opposed to the liberalisation of the electricity and gas sectors and are, in fact, in favour of establishing a major European public service.
We are also voting against this report because it has been written in hypocritical, anti-democratic waffle and its dominant theme is that of an ‘economy of ignorance’. Given the situation of the British railways and the electricity industry in California, how can we possibly forget that privatisation is not synonymous with efficiency?"@en1
