". Whilst it is said that employment is one of Europe’s ambitions, the primacy of monetary policies, and in particular the Stability Pact, prevents us, regrettably, from prioritising jobs. In fact, the opposite is true; all we have are statements of intent to please the public. Where, indeed, are the practical measures to achieve full employment, to improve job quality and productivity and to enhance social cohesion and integration? Unemployment continues to rise in the European Union – by 1.5 million between 2002 and 2003. The number of multinational company relocations continues to rise, a phenomenon, which, in Portugal, has already led to thousands of job losses. Poverty and social exclusion continue to rise. Social inequality continues to rise, caused by liberalisation and privatisation, which have speeded up following the adoption of the Lisbon Strategy, especially in Portugal. Against this backdrop, we could not vote in favour of this report."@en1
