On the occasion of Europe Day (9 May 2008), over 100 Romanian PES activists, academics, Romanian MEPs and the President of PSD, Mircea Geoana took part in a debate in Brasov, Romania. The Secretary General of PES, Philip Cordery engaged in discussion on the PES manifesto consultation.



The main conclusion was that the European left should come with an alternative solution to the right’s proposals that only split up the society. The left should counter it or adopt a mediating strategy. The activists showed great interest in getting involved in concrete actions to reshape the left and bring it in the forefront of the political stage. The left should better communicate its goals, thus by leaving out the too politically correct speeches and the 'wooden language'. The commitments and actions need to be expressed better, in order to reach the common people. The common language must be recaptured and allow the left to better connect to its electorate.
