"This report is positive in several respects: it calls for a reduction in income inequalities; it underlines the damaging role played by the banks in the economic crisis; it advocates saving energy and an increased use of renewable energy, and it asserts that freedom of movement should be maintained within the EU.
However, these are good intentions that amount to nothing, since the rest of the report is an apology for an authoritarian, liberal Europe. It welcomes the establishment of the European Semester from beginning to end, and adheres to the approach of the Euro Plus Pact, though without saying as much. It explains that fiscal competition could be acceptable; it expresses concern over poverty among women and children, then hurriedly passes the problem on to non-governmental organisations (NGOs). It warns against protectionism and populism. These are all reasons that prevent me from voting for this text."@en1
