"The EU is constantly described as one of the wealthiest regions in the world and it donates aid amounting to billions of euro to developing countries. At the same time, estimates indicate that more than 80 million people in the EU are at risk of poverty and some of them are the working poor. In this context, it is clear that the increase in so-called ‘Mac’ jobs and the practice of forcing employees into bogus self-employment are becoming growing problems. The EU is still failing to come to grips with these issues. Combating poverty is, in principle, a matter for the Member States, which is why national reform programmes are needed. A European platform would, on the one hand, swallow up additional funding and, on the other, increase the bureaucratisation of the EU and its centralising tendencies. Therefore, I have voted against this report."@en1
