"Mr President, I have risen to speak about discrimination against Polish workers who are legally employed in Belgium. I repeat, who are legally employed. I am not talking about people working on the black market, but about people who are officially entitled to work, and who had contracts of employment with well-known companies in Flanders. These contracts have been terminated, and all because of pressure from trade unions.
This demonstrates that both the law and people’s mindsets need changing in this European Union of ours, which I almost referred to as a common European Union. Access to the labour and services market is not the only element that needs changing. I repeat, people’s ways of thinking must also be changed. The idea of a common European Union and a common Europe has not yet become a reality for everyone. I would hope that the concept of European solidarity becomes more than just an empty platitude bandied about in order to drown out a very different reality."@en1
