"Mr President, if Mr Grech of the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament meant that this resolution is a call for economic growth, then he is under the mistaken belief that economic growth can be decided on politically. The Soviet Union came to this painful realisation after resolving on economic growth at every party conference. This resolution has exactly the same placebo quality.
We are currently running the risk of losing the credibility of the internal market in the eyes of Europe’s citizens. Nothing makes the failure of EU policy, including in the area of the internal market, quite so clear as the scandalously high unemployment figures. Which citizens have profited from this internal market? Those that have to fight harder every day to keep their jobs, the ever growing number of people who have to do two jobs in order even to survive? This resolution provides no answers in this respect. We are at risk of losing the positive aspects of the internal market because we have no answer to the unemployment that is rising daily, particularly among young people. Unemployment rates of over 50% are scandalous and demonstrate clearly the failure of your internal market policy and your monetary policy."@en1
