"The basic argument in this report is that the best way of addressing unemployment is to promote worker mobility. It takes the view that workers who lose their job as a result of the crisis and of the austerity policies imposed throughout the EU, and to an even greater degree in countries such as Greece, Portugal and Ireland, simply need to migrate. Despite the fact that there are currently too few jobs available at European level, the report fails to understand that promoting worker mobility at all costs conflicts with regional policy and cohesion policy. The purpose of cohesion policy is to support endogenous economic and social development in the poorer regions of Europe, so that people can stay and find work there.
The only way to address unemployment in Europe is to reverse the current policies being applied, which are the cause of mediaeval practices and flexible forms of employment and which are putting wages and pensions at risk. As this particular report has failed to properly map the true causes of unemployment and propose radical and fair ways of reducing it, I voted against today’s motion for a resolution."@en1
