"Mr President, thank you particularly for taking all of us in the catch-the-eye. It makes us feel valued and makes it worthwhile for us to stay here for the entire debate.
Yesterday, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Mr Cameron, outlined his requests for reform within the European Union. He put emphasis on one point in particular: competitiveness. He is, of course, absolutely correct because, without it, we are not going to be strong in Europe, we will not have growth, we will not have jobs, and we will not have influence in the world. Certainly there have been many instances in the past where we have regulated – maybe in isolation, sensibly – but it did have a very negative effect on competitiveness, and that certainly needs to stop. He is right in that regard.
The other aspect is, in relation to the Semester, that it is an opportunity for us to ensure there is proper discipline in budgets, etc. in the Member States. For that reason, the first Member State that steps out of line must be dealt with because, if they are not dealt with and they get away with it, everything will fall apart again."@en1
