The Party of European Socialists has adopted a common manifesto for the European Elections at its Council in Madrid. This manifesto was adopted by all the leaders of Europe’s social democratic and socialist parties.


The PES manifesto “People first: A new direction for Europe” features concrete proposals including:

•    A European strategy for smart green growth to create 10 million new jobs by 2020
•    New financial market regulation covering all players including hedge funds and private equity
•    Climate-changing emission reductions for industries such as transport and construction
•    A European Pact on Wages for decent minimum wages in all EU member states
•    Stepping up the fight against the trafficking of women and children for sexual exploitation.
