"Mr President, in this European Parliament, whatever the matter being debated, all roads lead to the same place: further and deeper political and economic integration. In the early days of what was the EEC, we were told that there was freedom of movement of labour: the right to work in other countries. If work could not be found, or if one’s job disappeared, people would come home.
We are now moving towards freedom of movement of claimants. This coordination is portrayed as a safety net for hard-working, enterprising, self-employed people who fall on hard times. In fact, its motivation is to support not people but a political objective: the maximisation of the movement of people to undermine national identities. In the words of the rapporteur, without such coordination, there would be a risk that freedom of movement would be inoperable. In this field, as in all others, the measures are not designed to satisfy an autonomous demand or the desire of self-employed people to work abroad. It is part of a long-term plan to create and empower that demand."@en1
