Note sent by YS full:

Archena Socialist Youth has welcomed the outcome of the vote held today at the European Parliament, "which has resulted in the dismissal of the Working Time Directive, and the denial of the right's attempts to cut more conservative rights citizens, and to place the rules of the market over the welfare of the Europeans. "

"Once more social Europe and the citizens, political capital, which has defeated the European Union seek to build a purely mercantilist and remote from citizens," said the Secretary General of Archena JS, Michael Ruiz, who has stressed that the outcome of the vote in Parliament is the result mainly of citizen mobilization, "which has been shown by all means available to their rejection of a bill that would have been a huge step backwards in terms of labor rights."

Ruiz also wanted to highlight the attitude of the PSOE, "which from the outset has been mobilized against this directive, helping the European Socialist Party had a unique and combative stance against the working hours of 65 hours per week, and forcing many representatives of the European right, among them the Spanish PP, to make public the meaning of his vote against legislation clearly regressive and contrary to the interests of the vast majority of citizens. "

For the young socialist the result of today's vote demonstrates the need for citizens to remain vigilant and mobilized, "because conservatism is always outstanding, and seeks to exploit the slightest neglect to introduce measures to cut rights, and alienate European Union values and principles that have always defined as justice, solidarity, or the extension of social policies. "

In addition, Mireia Ruiz said he expects the outcome of this vote shows citizens the importance of their vote in European Parliament elections, and serve for the next June the Europeans come out in droves to vote for that European institutions to consolidate a political majority to uphold the rights and interests of most social and civic. "

"If anything positive can be learned from what happened with the Working Time Directive is that it has served for many citizens to realize that the work done in the European Parliament affects them very directly, and to a greater extent some want to convey.

Hopefully this will translate into increased participation and interest of citizens in all matters having to do with the European Union, and greater control of their work in our Union representatives. "
