"Once again the summit has burdened the peoples with the weight of an aggravated anti-grass roots policy. Having attempted to overcome their opposition of secondary importance to the 'Euro-constitution', they turned their attention to the economy and the further development of repression and foreign relations and they did not fail to congratulate the Pope on his 25 years in service to God. As the leaders of the ΕU declared, economic recovery depends on speeding up structural reforms and increasing the flexibility of the labour market, in other words on even harsher conditions of employment for the workers. They also talk of 'modernising' the social protection systems and repeat that the pension systems are threatened by demographic developments, in other words by the increase in average life span. In order to invigorate the monopolies further, they have announced major new projects in transport and telecommunications networks. Again democratic rights are in their line of fire. On the pretext of controlling borders and immigration, they are introducing 'biometric' elements into visas and passports. They are calling for close police and judicial cooperation on the pretext of terrorism. They welcome the US-inspired decision by the UN Security Council on Iraq and have declared that they are ready to contribute to the 'stability' of that country."@en1
