"The European Council meeting in June will simply have been a case of wool being pulled over the eyes of the citizens of Europe. The so-called Growth Pact and banking union have made precious little progress. The former is basically merely a reallocation of funds, and the latter allows solidarity to flow once again along a one-way track between the European institutions and the banks: those very banks which have still never been made to face up to their responsibilities. We always respond to the crisis of global capitalism by another dose of capitalism.
Social Europe and the green economy have been banished to the outer reaches of the realms of possibility in a complete lack of transparency and utter hypocrisy. Counter to what we have been told, it is still the same old story with this Council, we are caught up in the same vicious circle dictated by the financial markets. If you remain in any doubt about this, all you need do is read the resolution submitted and adopted by the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats), the Group of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe, the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialist and Democrats in the European Parliament and the Group of the Green/European Free Alliance. Once again those who have everything to lose are those who live from the fruits of their own labours in Europe. I therefore voted against this resolution."@en1
