"Despite the artifice of a ‘State of the Union Address’, we are not yet the United States of Europe of which you dream. In view of the results, you will need to come up with much more convincing arguments and projects to try and establish any democratic legitimacy. Your only message, despite being put to the test, boils down to the ultra-liberal and globalist approach of ‘still more Europe', while continuing to subject us to an increasingly speculative and reckless international financial caste. Furthermore we have destroyed the social progress that our people fought so hard for over the centuries, the euro and federalism form a sacrificial religion that stifles farmers, artisans, small and medium-sized enterprises and industries, who are the movers and shakers in our society, in other words, the real and living economic force. Instead, together we should be introducing a mechanism, as soon as possible, enabling an effective exit from the euro rather than suffering the catastrophic consequences of its impending collapse. For this reason, I call for the introduction of referenda in France and in Europe on these crucial issues. Lastly, I call for early European elections to be held given the rapid decline of our respective countries, which are being dragged down precisely because of the ‘state of the European Union’."@en1
