"It is essential to combat undeclared work, particularly when this cancer of the economy is increasing, thereby curbing our growth and distorting competition on the internal market through social dumping. The first victims of this underground economy are the legal workers, the citizens of the Member States, whose legitimate economic and social rights are threatened. We could welcome this report for what it denounces. Unfortunately, it is one more opportunity for these relentless pro-Europeans to use as a social lever the option of large-scale economic immigration: emergency immigration, in their view, for the broken European economy and population. This call to replace the immigration of illegal labour with ‘legal’ immigration is unfounded hypocrisy. Moreover, it makes no economic, social or societal sense. France and Europe do not have to open up more ‘channels for legal immigration’ when they cannot even stop illegal immigration. In order to boost growth and regain control of the internal market we need to restore the citizens’ confidence through a family-oriented and pro-birth policy, through better training and guidance for young people and the unemployed, and, finally, through Community preference and protection."@en1
