".
When a large number of parties on the extreme right start gaining power in Europe, or come within a whisker of doing so, it is high time we considered why this is happening and what disastrous consequences it will have for our democracies.
Nevertheless, the traditional political parties continue to follow their own agenda, without questioning what they do, while sharing out the top jobs amongst themselves.
Nevertheless, economists, governments and the European Commission continue their relentless pursuit of ever more liberalism.
Economic 'rigour' is not the right response, despite it being one of the conditions of having a global policy which is closer to the people.
Liberalism could have advantages to offer in some sectors, but only if it is managed and regulated.
Above all, today's broad economic guidelines need to be completely revised if we are to eradicate unemployment and poverty.
I do not recognise this objective in the documents we have before us."@en1
