lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, the European Union is all about peace and prosperity, and we have thankfully had peace on the continent for 60 years now. Prosperity has come in fits and starts: the recession obviously meant that an awful lot of people went below the poverty threshold. It is very sad for that to happen, especially in relation to young people. As has been pointed out, the consequences of child poverty is that a child does not get the opportunity to reach their potential. All of us here have had the opportunity to reach our potential; many, many children in Europe, and indeed across the world, do not have that opportunity. So it is incumbent on us – and it is good that we are debating this tonight – to ensure that we can do whatever we can to give them that opportunity. Maybe, in 30 years’ time, when we have another display out here on Erasmus, many of the children who are in poverty now might be lifted out of it and benefit from the Erasmus programme as well."@en1
