"Mr President, the debate on modernising labour law, where it was a substantive debate rather than a pretext, was an important opportunity to illustrate the radical differences between the right and the left wings.
The right wing interprets high rates of unemployment and poverty as a result of the inflexibility of labour law. It considers the black market as more or less inevitable and, in order to legalise all this, talks of flexibility with security. And what better than the Danish model? However, it can only be applied if there is full economic, financial and fiscal harmonisation between the Member States.
The report we are to vote on improves the initial draft on numerous points, thanks to the socialists’ global counter-proposal focusing on protection for workers, which is neither the cause of unemployment nor an act of charity. It is simply one of the most important pillars of economic growth and social justice.
Let us not deny the truth! In the face of the historically unprecedented increase in produced wealth and its dangerous unequal distribution for the benefit of employers, we must deepen the concept of labour law."@en1
