"This is one of three reports being debated and voted on today relating to the Internal Market and the consolidation of the Single Market. Although the rapporteur also tries here to gloss over the consequences of his support for liberalisation by advocating the social clause in all legislation on the Single Market, in line with Article 9 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, the truth is that he is not unaware that neither the Commission nor the Council comply with it. Many Member States do not comply with it either, as is the case with Portugal. There is more and more praise for free competition, and more professions of faith in the market, liberalisation and privatisation, one example of which is the insistence on implementing the Services Directive.
The link with the conclusions of the Council on 25 March and, above all, with the newly renamed ‘Euro Plus Pact’, is clear. Germany originally thought this up and dubbed it the ‘Competitiveness Pact’, and it declares war on workers, on their social rights and on the people in general, whilst denouncing the dependence of countries that have weaker economies and where civilisation is truly moving backward. We therefore voted against, as we did the two other reports."@en1
