"When this report states that the current economic, financial and social crisis has invalidated some of the progress made in the past, then it needs to be made clear that the crisis has merely further intensified a trend that has been developing for a long time. In the past, there was constant praise for the fact that more jobs were continually being created. However, the fact that most of the new jobs were part-time posts, filled by workers in limited part-time employment, and many people were forced into poverty as a result of ‘mac-jobs’ was quietly ignored.
If the EU constantly preaches that a good education is the guarantee of a job and believes that lifelong learning can put a stop to this trend, then it is taking action that is completely divorced from reality. One indication of this is the number of unemployed academics, who have been displaced by the cheap competition pushing its way in from abroad. To now impose even more flexibility on workers and increase the precarious situation is the wrong way to go and something that I reject in the strongest possible terms."@en1
