"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, we support the dock workers against this directive, which is wrong for employment, wrong for their right to safety and wrong for the economy itself, because it proposes competition based on dumping. It must therefore be rejected, as it was in 2003.
We need to think about the kind of collapse to which free-market policies are leading. Dock work has a glorious, long-standing tradition, which has created rights and prosperity by linking trading activities with the towns that welcomed them. Without this noble work, which the directive would wipe out for the sake of free-market policies, there would be no future for Europe. The European social model is our chief resource, and this directive, just like the Bolkestein directive, is the negation of it. That is why I believe that the workers are right and that this Parliament should endorse their demands by rejecting the directive before us."@en1
