"Mr President of the Commission, your manifesto – I am sorry, but I find that it has an acute neo-liberal slant. The failure to get close to the Lisbon targets is being used as an argument to compress the social and regional cohesion and environmental protection pillars in the name of competitiveness. We are opposed to the approach taken by Mr Kok's committee, because it leads to less Europe, especially in the cohesion and environment sectors, and to more social dumping, which dismantles the European social state. We need ambitious, not miserly plans for the unified Europe of the future. A substantial increase in own resources is needed in order to finance the new common policies demanded by the citizens of the 25 Member States now and the 27 in future. The Commission proposal is the minimum starting point for the financial perspectives. If you want, you have a brilliant opportunity, you just have to stop constantly going backwards. Everyone needs to understand at long last that a bigger Europe, more Europe, with less money is impossible."@en1
