lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, I have to say I find these discussions about youth unemployment in the plenary increasingly frustrating because you have one in four young people unemployed, none of the establishment parties or the Commission can avoid saying something about the crisis, but none of them has an answer for the crisis. So what we have, again and again, is a peculiar mixture of crocodile tears, empty promises and policies that in reality amount to blaming young people for their own unemployment. This is a massive crisis for the young people who are out of work; it is a massive crisis for our societies, which are being drained of talents and skills with massive emigration; and it is a huge crisis for our economies where the cost of young people not in education, not in employment, not in training is estimated at EUR 153 billion. The central problem here is not a skills mismatch, as some would have it, which in reality is placing the blame on young people, and the answer is not work-for-free schemes like the JobBridge scheme we have in Ireland, or schemes we have in many countries across Europe. Just today, new figures came out that showed that the government itself in Ireland employed over 200 people in this work-for-free scheme and then afterwards did not employ a single one of them in a proper job. It might be a bit obvious, but the problem here is that there are no jobs for young people and the solution is quite simple: to break with austerity policies, to break with the cutbacks and to invest in education, in training and in jobs. It is really that simple. You can choose to go along with austerity or you can break with austerity and actually provide jobs for young people."@en1
