lpv:translated text	". Two years ago, when we debated the Charter of Fundamental Rights, we described it as useless and dangerous, pointing out that it lagged way behind international conventions and the constitutions of several Member States of the ΕU. We feared that it was destined to form the core of an imminent EU constitution which would pave the way for federalism. Our fears are being confirmed. The ΕU is becoming more and more autocratic, thanks in part to so-called terrorism. It is updating its armoury (European terrorism law, European arrest warrant, European army, European police force) so that it can deal with reactions to its policy. As for the so-called social model, the workers know all about that, with jobs being slashed, unemployment portioned out, the welfare and pension system dismantled and health and education privatised. Those who support the Charter, including the rapporteur, who feels it is in no need of correction, have totally ignored the hundreds of thousands of demonstrators who have protested at every single summit against the anti-grass roots and pro-monopoly system being set up. All they want is to exert pressure so that the Charter is incorporated into the Treaties and made binding on the institutions of the ΕU and the Member States. If it is, we shall have an even more conservative and autocratic institutional framework which will render the constitutionally protected rights acquired by the workers useless. That is why the MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece voted against the report."@en1
