The report 'on the protection of minorities and anti-discrimination policies in an enlarged Europe' contains everything except the basic fact that the discrimination in the EU against women, young people, ethnic immigrant minorities, the disabled etc. is the result of the anti-grass roots and unfeeling policies of the ΕU, on the one hand, and has a very deep, class-based nature, on the other. It does not cut across the social divide; it mainly affects the poorer, grass-roots sections of society. It refers to numerous forms of actual discrimination in the workplace against women and young people, but passes in silence over the high rates of unemployment and the inhumane, flexible forms of employment applied mainly to young people and women, as a result of Lisbon-type strategies. The report passes in silence over the scandalous discrimination against the Russian minority in the Baltic States, despite the fact that the Communist Party of Greece has repeatedly raised the problem in the European Parliament.
The people subject to discrimination should not delude themselves; only their fight, in cooperation with consistent, working-class movements, with the fighting grass-roots movements, can put the brakes on their marginalisation and exclusion from the social and political rights of which capitalism and its political exponents have deprived them."@en1
