lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the Vaxholm conflict is a matter for the European Court of Justice. Parliament is no court, but nor is the Commission or any individual Commissioners. On 5 October, you succeeded, Commissioner McCreevy, in using a couple of sentences to challenge the whole of the Swedish trade union movement, the Scandinavian model of labour law, the European trade union movement, Member States and citizens. Does your statement reflect thoughts and ideas that really are discussed behind the Commission’s closed doors? In that case, it is good that we citizens, the Left and the trade union movement have now obtained proof that all the fine talk about social dialogue and the social dimension is just fancy words. The Commission has shown which side it is on when it comes to working conditions etc. You need to know, however, that you have issued a challenge to the whole of the Left and of the trade union movement. We in Sweden have the EU’s lowest share of working days lost to labour market disputes. We are a country that welcomes workers and service companies from other countries, but we can never accept discrimination and situations in which workers are pitted against workers. We refuse to accept discrimination in the labour market too. Employees’ rights are not for sale, not even in the EU’s internal market. Employees are not commodities. We are flesh and blood people, and we shall defend our rights. We on the Left and in the trade union movement have embraced the struggle before, and we are fully prepared to do so again and to take up the fight for solidarity and justice."@en1
