lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, in the early days of what was the EC, the words ‘free trade’ rather than ‘single market’ were used. The word ‘free’ is, of course, an emotively favourable word that gave the idea an attraction, but misled many about its reality. The freedom enjoyed by this traded good is paid for by that person’s job, or the other firm’s factory. This person’s free movement is that person’s lost job. The rapporteur refers to the alleged need for Member States to transpose and implement the laws of their EU masters. He calls upon the Commission to pursue swiftly infringement proceedings against countries that have failed to remove minor impediments to a single market. He calls rather ominously for greater monitoring of Member States by the Commission. Back in 1973, when the UK joined, many of us warned of the Orwellian double-think that lay behind nice words like ‘free’ and ‘freedom’. We can now hear the chilling and repressive reality falling from the lips of the Eurocrats."@en1
