". In its legislative work programme for 2003, the Commission has set itself three priorities: enlargement, strengthening security and stability, and the economy. We are not satisfied, from an essentially budgetary and accounting standpoint, with the way in which these priorities have been handled, and we are appalled at this programme’s lack of ambition and breadth of vision. On enlargement, the main preoccupation is the restricted integration of the Community acquis in the name of the single market. What the new Member States need, however, is solidarity, democracy and public services. On security and stability, in the name of the dogmatic fight against terrorism, the Commission will continue with its plans to destroy freedom and to criminalise immigrants. In addition, the European Union’s policy on the Middle East, to seek a fair and lasting peace, has not produced much in the way of results. A different policy is needed, one that is based on opening up of borders, combating dictatorships, abolishing tax havens and supporting of oppressed peoples. As far as the economy is concerned, despite the admission that the Stability Pact is ‘stupid’, the Commission is continuing its policy of budget austerity, deregulation of the market and privatisation of public services. The Europe that the Commission is building is not the Europe that its citizens want. I voted against this programme."@en1
