"We have been talking for years now about creating a single permit for nationals of third countries who wish to live and work in a Member State. It was a commendable initiative at the beginning, but the text as it is contradicts the stated goals: it is both discriminatory, because the basic principle of equal treatment for all is not respected, and restrictive, since several categories of workers are excluded. Despite the improvements made since December 2010, there is a continued fear of social inequality among nationals of third countries. What is more, by voting in favour of the proposed ‘single permit’ for third-country nationals, the European right is voting for an immigration policy that is both discriminatory and restrictive. The text as it stands does not provide for equal treatment for all workers in terms of working conditions and social rights. It creates different categories of workers, by nationality and by type of contract, and this is simply unacceptable. We cannot compromise on equal treatment. We should say ‘yes’ to a common immigration policy, and ‘yes’ to a genuine single European permit, but we do not want a policy that is restrictive and therefore discriminatory."@en1
