This report emphatically welcomes the European Semester process, endorsing all of the regressive and socially unjust policies of the European Commission. It asserts, for example, that it ‘acknowledges the Commission’s emphasis on labour market reforms with a view to increasing the competitiveness of the euro area’ and ‘considers that wage increases should be kept in line with productivity’. What we are talking about here are the recommendations made within the framework of the European Semester that impose a reduction in public investment, privatisations and, in several countries, such as Portugal, a reduction in wage levels, as part of a ‘coordinated’ strategy for the supervision of macroeconomic policies. In other words, we are talking about the imposition of policies that recommend more recession, more unemployment and more poverty, policies to which the majority of this Parliament, by approving this report, is necessarily committed. It is also committed to an attack on national sovereignty by preventing elected sovereign bodies from deciding the fate of their own countries."@en1
