lpv:translated text	"Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, Europe’s call to tighten up its budget brings a moment of truth for countries who have squandered and badly managed their own resources. However, it should also be a moment of truth for Europe with regard to growing social exclusion, and the need to denounce and resolve it. It is enough to read the Caritas reports and speak to volunteers committed to tackling urban poverty to understand the extent of the phenomenon which now affects even those who never thought they would find themselves in a soup kitchen or a hostel. It is enough to look around. A few weeks ago in Paris, in Place de la Bastille, I saw a homeless couple sleeping rough, with a new-born baby between them. There were others in Rue St-Antoine – so we are talking about a wealthy part of Paris – another couple on the ground, on cardboard boxes, with two children under the covers as well. I stopped to look at the reactions of passers-by and, over the course of 15 minutes, no one even stopped to look. The indifference of a large portion of our citizens is another face of this emergency. Last year, I spent a night in Rome with Emmaus volunteers. I learnt a lot, but I also discovered that they were scandalously alone. With this report, which the Italy of Values will support, we ask that a problem which we often prefer to ignore is not forgotten."@en1
