lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, the rapporteur has said that legal migration will increase the EU’s competiveness, but she is just a little bit coy about explaining how. Let me help her out. Flood the market with any commodity – and of course labour is seen as a commodity by globalists – and the price will be driven down. As I have said repeatedly, the only way in which an unprotected developed world can compete with the Third World and emerging economies is by pushing the wage rates of our workers down to their levels. We need protection for our industries and workers and not competitiveness built on the back of our workers. The rapporteur goes on to seek to justify immigration by reference to demographic change in Europe, falling birth rates and ageing population. However, birth rates fall in response to economic demands in the home and can be reversed by imaginative social policies. Furthermore, if you bring Third World immigrants to Europe, they do not become substitute Europeans. They bring the Third World with them."@en1
