PES activists are participating on the Vienna Forum to discuss the New Social Europe and to defend our values: democracy, freedom, Human Rights. We encourage everybody to spread the socialist point of views.
We should spread our voice. Improve cooperation between European and national Socialist parties is the solution. We want to build a New Social Europe based on the equity of opportunities and solidarity but to achieve it we need your help and support.
It is important to defend women rights. Being a woman should not be an obstacle. Women are intelligent, talented… Women have innovative ideas. We, women, have the support of the socialist leaders and politics. Socialists have the challenge to create a New Social Europe. They engage themselves to think and find solutions for people’s real problems. That’s why the manifesto2009 is being prepared.µ
We have the resources, the organization, people and our essential strengths: our values!

Voilà une idée
originale portée par les camarades du SP.a qui mériterait d'être
étudiée sérieusement et pourquoi pas reprise dans notre manifeste
électoral.
De quoi s'agit-il exactement ?
On sait que les forces de police sont coordonnées au niveau européen par EUROPOL pour ce qui concerne les questions liées aux trafics en tout genre, le terrorisme. Bien que cette institution naissante aurait besoin de moyens pour fonctionner efficacement, elle a le mérite d'exister.
Ce que propose nos camarades belges, c'est que dans le domaine social, une sorte d'inspection européenne du Travail soit mise en place et que celle-ci puisse contrôler le respect au sein des Etats-membres des droits sociaux dans le but d'éviter le dumping social.
Dans de nombreuses contributions, revient également l'idée d'une harmonisation vers le haut des droits sociaux. Parfois avec des variations comme celle sur l'imposition d'un salaire minimum européen. Le SP.a ne précise pas comment il l'imagine son application quand la Fédération de Paris indique qu'il doit être calculé en fonction de l'échelle nationale des...

The new “security package” in Italy risks to fuel tensions and increase the cases of violence such as the attacks on Roma-settlements around Naples and Milan.
As highlighted by the socialist MEPs in a hearing at the European Parliament on June 4, the new measures do not provide an equal treatment of individuals in front of the justice since for the same crime illegal immigrants will get an 1/3 higher penalty than the one established for nationals. Therefore, illegal immigration will become a crime itself targeted to asylum seekers, who usually run away from situations of war, extreme poverty and do not have other option than to arrive irregularly in a country.
According to the socialist MEP Jan Marinus Wiersma, rapporteur of the EP Committee on Employment and Social Affairs, Italy is shaking the principles of the Schengen system and the values of the European Union enshrined in Article 6 of the Treaty. Roma community is a European minority and as such it needs to be protected at European level.

Today I faced a
horrible event – one colleague of mine got beaten in the street
because he looked at the wrong car. Victim of an assault, he
couldn’t react or call the police because he was too scared that
the guy could get his home address – he seemed very dangerous and
with a lot of money.
