"EU citizens attach high priority to the debate we are now having. As quite a few speakers have said in this House, we should have solved these acute problems a long time ago. That applies to the migratory flows to the Canary Islands and Malta, information updates for everyone waiting for permission to stay in the EU and better support for those fighting to be accepted as new EU citizens. We should have made more progress in influencing attitudes in our societies and combating segregation in working life, housing and education. In Sweden, we had elections two weeks ago, in which a xenophobic party won seats on councils in every third local authority. I am perturbed by their message that too many immigrants have been allowed in. They talk about that, but not about the responsibility we all share and the solidarity we all need to show. The EU’s population is ageing quickly, and there will need to be more of us. We must have a successful debate on this. We in Parliament must obtain increased powers, greater responsibility and access to more rapid decision-making. It is only by means of a common EU policy in this area that we can achieve results for EU citizens."@en1
