lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the summit of summits has turned out to be the flop of all flops. All the summit has led to is a schism within Europe. The United Kingdom has now turned its back on Europe, and that is a serious step that the UK has taken. Moreover, we have agreed sanctions for countries that are failing to repay their debts. They will, obviously, not be able to do that for a while yet, because it is a bit difficult to repay your debts in a recession. What I would like to warn you of is the fact that the European Union is about to become a union of unemployment. Ladies and gentlemen, 2012 will be the year of truth, because this union of debt has had it. Economic growth in the Netherlands, one of the strongest economies of the Union, has now moved into recession. Unemployment in the Netherlands is increasing fast. Economic shrinkage next year will be around half a per cent and, I repeat, the Netherlands is one of the countries that is supposed to be repaying these debts, at least that is what this House has asked it to do time and again. That cannot go on forever, ladies and gentlemen. This House can say that the Netherlands ought to allow more unemployed Poles onto its labour market, and that we should let Bulgarians and Romanians flood into our country, but the Dutch people will not put up with this any more. If unemployed Greeks come to the Netherlands, that will only create more unemployment in the Netherlands. The Greeks do not even want to go to the Netherlands, because they want to work in their own country and we ought to make sure that they are able to do that."@en1
