lpv:translated text	"The policies promoted by the outgoing Commission had an adverse impact on the working classes and grass roots sections of society. The militarisation of the ΕU proceeded at a fast pace and the EU participated in or tolerated imperialist wars, interested only in its share of the spoils. Using 'terrorism' as a pretext, it reinforced and created new mechanisms to repress human rights and freedoms. It adopted the US doctrine of 'preventive war'. The Commission contributed to and promoted a deeply reactionary Constitutional Treaty, which will create new ordeals for the workers. The ΕU took action to increase the power and profits of big business. The consequences are unbearable for the working classes and grass roots sections of society. The 'miracle' of EMU signalled new austerity programmes and new programmes to reduce the purchasing power of grass-roots families, massacre the social and political rights which the working classes have fought for, keep unemployment high and cut social spending under the Stability Pact. The implementation of the Lisbon strategy confirmed the objective of increasing the profitability of big business by reducing wage costs and creating conditions of insecurity and uncertainty for workers. Mr Barroso has stated that he intends to continue at a fast pace with the same anti-grass roots policy. The grass-roots movement in Europe is growing stronger and is putting up resistance. This is where the people's hope lies for a Europe of peace and grass-roots rights, a socialist Europe."@en1
