What Marianne spoke about.

Mr President! European cooperation is based on the principle of free movement. It has created growth and prosperity across national borders for decades. But freedom of movement has also led to social setbacks, with many hard-working Europeans facing downward pressure on their wages and working conditions. Fortunately, this is not a law of nature. It doesn't have to be like that. Social backsliding can turn into progress. Freedom of movement can become fair movement. But it requires political will. In the municipality of Copenhagen, the political will resulted in an experiment with ID cards on several public buildings. This has eased the control of the authorities and brought fraud to light. In fact, it was so successful that the scheme is now permanent. Because even the companies were happy about it, because the easy control wiped out all the fraudster companies. But social dumping is not a problem we can solve with a "vupti". It is the long, tough haul of organisation, legislation and control that can slow down progress and ensure decent wages and conditions for employees. Still, an ID card has proven to be low-hanging fruit that we haven't picked yet. Therefore, we should follow in the footsteps of Copenhagen and their experiences. We should follow suit at European level and introduce an ID card for all the many Europeans who work in a country other than their country of origin. This will make it easier for authorities to check compliance with the rules. This will lead to fewer people being scammed by gruesome employers. And thus we can put an end to the downward pressure that hard-working people experience on their wages and working conditions. That is why I hope that a majority in the European Parliament will help to put pressure on the European Commission so that, with an ID card in the toolbox, we can begin to make it free. Movement is fair.

Mr President! By 2035, up to 35 million buildings will be subject to energy renovation in the EU. There will be a wave of green renovations that will lead to major energy savings. But if we are not careful, the renovations will also cause a wave of cancer cases. A wave that will cost the lives of thousands of Europeans, because the buildings contain deadly asbestos. We have a limit today, yes, but it is not high enough. We have a screening effort, it's just too bad. We have legislation, yes, but there is a lack of enforcement. This means that there is still life-threatening asbestos dust. It gives workers cancer that takes their lives. That is unacceptable. We need to lower the threshold. We need to improve the screening of buildings before renovations begin, and we need to ensure that there is more control. It is not right for people to risk their lives to do their job. Asbestos already has many lives on its conscience. Let's make sure it ends now, before the next generation loses its life.

Mr President! For more than 100 years, employees all over Europe have fought for the right to a good working life, but unfortunately many of the major achievements are being rolled back. Platform companies like Uber, Wolt and Deliveroo have not only brought innovation and innovation with them, they have also brought in precarious working conditions that most of all look like something from the old days. This has affected the transport industry so much. When drivers and couriers drive around without insurance or safety equipment, they expose themselves to serious dangers. After all, when thousands of people are stuck on unpredictable zero-hour contracts, they lose the opportunity to plan their own everyday lives, lives and finances. This is simply not good enough. We can do much better. But now platform companies dream that we create a so-called "third category" between employees and employers so that they can continue to avoid ordinary employer responsibilities. This kind of 'employee light' category will be poisonous to Europe's social labour market model, and we as a Parliament must distance ourselves from this. We must avoid A and B teams and make it clear that a worker is a worker.
