"I voted against the Joint Motion for a Resolution on the Commission Work Programme for 2017 presented by the Liberals (ALDE), Socialists (S&D) and Christian Democrats (EPP). There were a small number of positive proposals in the resolution such as the call for the swift introduction of a pillar of social rights. However, the majority of the proposals were aimed at deepening the pro-austerity economic governance framework, and the pro-integration agenda. The resolution accepts the European Semester and the Stability and Growth Pact rules, and calls for the completion of the Economic and Monetary Union in the way outlined in the Five Presidents’ Report. These proposals all aim to further deregulate financial markets and increase competition in the single market, without considering the negative impact this will have on working people and peripheral economies such as Ireland’s. I also proposed an amendment to the joint motion calling for the North of Ireland to be enabled to remain within the EU either by Irish reunification or special arrangement. I voted in favour of an alternative resolution presented by GUE/NGL which called for an alternative economic strategy based on redistributive policies that promote sustainable growth and social wellbeing."@en1
