"The issue of the mobility of workers within the EU is undoubtedly an important one. The report underlines the fact that little has been done to provide incentives for this practice which essentially, according to the rapporteur, benefits all. I would like to disagree on this point, because it is not true that complete freedom of movement only has positive results. In a period of major growth, it may be that inflows of workers compensate for gaps in production, but this is now a situation that belongs in the past. The present is made up of enormous difficulties for everyone, and it will certainly not be greater mobility that solves the problems; in fact, it could exacerbate them.
The arrival of foreign workers
in areas where there are problems could, for example, cause numerous problems, perhaps also leading to cases of racism and xenophobia. History has taught us this: if there is widespread prosperity, then there may be mobility, but otherwise it is better for everyone to stay in their own country. At this point in time, I do not believe that the conditions are in place for full European mobility, and therefore I decided to vote against the report."@en1
