Primero de Mayo, 2011 This place has a social context especially acute in our luchas country and the world.
Managers of neoliberalism, which is the contemporary version of capitalism, have decided to use the crisis of the capitalist system to intensify the exploitation of workers and peoples of the world. Try to recover the rate of profit at the expense of cutting the wages, the decline of social achievements and limitations of democracy.
In Spain, the number of unemployed and stops is at the edge of the 5 million, according to data from the latest Labour Force Survey. Meanwhile, big business, with the complicity of the Government (gestated in Zapatero's meeting with big business, but Minister of Labour made its protest "mouthpiece" and insignificant action), dares to make public measures that, until recently, had been considered unimaginable and hidden from public view. Thus, Telefónica, has announced the layoff of 6,000 workers while getting the highest profits in its history and rewards its managers with more than 450 million euros in extra compensation. And this is only an example.
The labor reform has reduced call termination and, instead of providing permanent recruitment has become an exception that does not exceed 9% of total contracts.
system reform pension age is an unprecedented attack on indirect wage workers and aims to pave the way for private pension funds and secure the resources needed to address the external debt of the English banks, mainly generated in the process of speculation property.
With the same objective is available to financial capital to manage half the country's savings through privatization of the Savings Banks.
Not a single measure taken by the Government of Zapatero / Rubalcaba, with the excuse of combating the crisis, which is not directly or indirectly on behalf of banks, whose debt situation is a real obsession for the Executive of the PSOE and on whose behalf you are willing to sacrifice employment, social services, pensions and public investment.
addition, the planned reform of collective bargaining seeks to liquidate the militant unionism and class, check out workers and roll back even the limited content of social and economic democracy of the English Constitution.
already have enough experience to find that the measures being taken off the crisis, driven by the European Commission and the IMF, and required by the neoliberal governments of central EU countries are failing and generate high costs for workers, both employed and self-employed, and for the vast majority of citizens. It is recognized, market shame are those who rule over the people's will. Markets, but you want to hide, have names and surnames: owners of large banks and large corporations, hedge fund managers.
But the people who live in our work or are unemployed do not accept this situation as if it were a divine punishment. Pay for the crisis that we have not established who is not a necessity, but the best advantage of those who generated it and have found it outrageous profits.
We rebel against that convenience unjust and exploitative.
We rebelled against right-wing policies of the PSOE government and rebel against the economic and political right (well represented by the PP and right-wing nationalist parties) because they fundamentally agree: sacrifices to the world of work and benefits to the world of capital. UNITED LEFT
to the crisis remains a coherent and combative. We were the first to raise a general strike against government action and we remain committed to a comprehensive package of measures to open a social outlet to the crisis, focusing on creating jobs and boosting the productive economy.
our position firmly planted in Parliament, through legislative proposals, and on the street by convening meetings and demonstrations. We stand resolutely against the pension reform, despite the agreement to which the unions have failed to come in the same way that we are committed to the success of unions in the People's Legislative Initiative to defeat labor reform imposed by the Government. UNITED LEFT
remains firmly with the people on the left, with the workers.
Twenty days after this May will take place local and regional elections. Participate in the demonstrations called on the International Festival Workers is more necessary than ever to vote in the forthcoming elections to ensure that municipalities and autonomous regions are real defenses against the right and right-wing policies is the best guarantee for a social outlet for the crisis.
FOR EMPLOYMENT BY THE SOCIAL AND TRADE
IN DEFENSE OF PUBLIC PENSION
