". We voted against the candidature of Mr Barroso and the new Commission because they stand for the continuation and hardening of the anti-grass roots, autocratic, warmongering policy of the ΕU. The withdrawal of the proposal and the change in certain Commissioners were to do with internal oppositions and the effort to find people who will implement the same policy more efficiently, in order to give a 'democratic' pretext for a new agreement between social democrat and conservative parties. That is why the debate focused on the people rather than the policy of the new Commission, in order to disorientate the people. The statements by the new Commissioners designate confirm our estimation that they will serve the interests of big business with passion. They defended the promotion and application of the reactionary Constitutional Treaty, the autocratic – and for the workers – terrifying Hague programme, the speeding up of new anti-labour measures under the Lisbon Strategy and the escalation of the imperialist aggressiveness of the ΕU. The Socialist Group, the Greens, the liberals and anyone else celebrating the change in certain Commissioners as a victory for democracy, are deceiving people about the policy and character of the ΕU. We MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece are voting against the Commission and we shall help to develop the grass-roots fight to reject and overturn the anti-grass roots policies which the election of the new Commission marks with the 'blessing' of all the governments of the Member States."@en1
