"These amendments to the Rules of Procedure, promoted by the majority in this House – the holy alliance between the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) and the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament – do not make the institution more democratic. Quite the contrary. The amendment to Rule 48(2), for example, seeks to limit the political groups’ opportunities for involvement in tabling amendments, requests for split votes and roll-call votes on points in own-initiative reports, if these are only carried out under the short presentation procedure.
The aim of this is to assert the role of Parliament in interinstitutional disputes within the EU, seeking to make own-initiative reports look like a consensus, making it a feigned consensus. It is regrettable and reprehensible that they are trying to limit the political groups’ involvement and, in particular, that of the Confederal Group of the European United Left – Nordic Green Left, which indisputably offers an alternative to this EU: that of a social Europe, a Europe of the workers and peoples."@en1
