".
We say no to the proposals tabled by the Commission and Parliament on the Financial Perspective 2007-2013, firstly because, politically and financially, they reflect the objectives enshrined in the so-called ‘European Constitution’, such as the primacy of competition, the reinforcement of ‘fortress Europe’ and the militarisation of the EU; and, secondly, because they are woefully inadequate in financial terms if we want to foster ‘social and economic cohesion’ and to meet the social, economic and environmental challenges of the enlarged EU.
We say no because we are opposed to any move to help the most economically developed countries – or rather their large economic and financial groups – to derive, once again, the lion’s share of the political and economic benefit from the EU, serving their interests ahead of the interests of Portugal and the Portuguese people.
We say no because what we need is to make a clean break from the EU’s neoliberal policies and, on the basis of cooperation between equal sovereign States, to foster sustainable economic development, create jobs and combat persistently high levels of unemployment, poverty, social exclusion and income inequality.
We therefore reject the report by Mr Böge. Instead we advocate the alternative resolution tabled by our Group on the Financial Perspective 2007-2013, containing proposals that defend Portugal’s interests."@en1
