"Madam President, yet again, we are debating the same old story. We talk about unemployment, but nothing happens. The numbers continue to illustrate that. One in five young people under the age of 25 in Europe is unemployed. In Greece, one in two young people does not have a job and the statistics are steadily getting worse.
In my opinion, this proves that we need to very carefully review both the programmes and how they are financed and the flexibility that we demonstrate on the question of take up, especially by Member States in difficulty due to the austerity packages imposed on them.
I worry about life outside this Chamber. When I asked a young unemployed person in Greece to tell me what to say in this debate in Parliament, he looked at me and said sarcastically, ‘Don’t say anything at all; you have never been unemployed and therefore have no idea what it is like to want to build a life and family and not be able to’."@en1
