lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, if the social pillar is to be successful and deliver on its stated aims, it has to represent what the citizens of Europe need and want. I hope that through the contributions made by Parliament, social partners and civil society, the social pillar can be aligned so as to guarantee social rights in the manner that citizens deserve and in a manner that will address poverty, income inequality and other serious social injustices. We need to work towards a situation where social policy is not considered a burden to economic growth, but rather that the two are considered to be symbiotic. We must stop the subordination of the social to the economic. It is a chance for the EU to move in the right direction: to prove that it is capable of change. Therefore, I urge the Commission to seize this opportunity and to not let the citizens down. However, if ‘business as usual’ continues, then citizens will suffer and the rise of euroscepticism will continue."@en1
