    Default Turmoil in Portugal

    Diario Socialista

    Translated from Spanish
    🇬🇧 Portuguese Parliament rejects the Government's labor reform

    The initiative, which triggered two general strikes in six months, failed to pass the first parliamentary hurdle after the surprise rejection by the far right.

    Today, the trade union workers' movement with general strikes has toppled the neoliberal labor reform in Portugal. They paralyzed the entire country with massive demonstrations. For those who say that fighting is pointless.

    After two general strikes in Portugal, they have managed to paralyze the labor reform that harms workers.
    Media blackout in Spain so that the example doesn't catch on, and shame on the major yellow unions of this country

    The Portuguese right wanted easy layoffs, 50-hour workdays, and a cheap and precarious youth. But they ran into general strikes, unions on their feet, and a parliamentary defeat.

    The old working-class custom of ORGANIZING is still working.

    In Portugal, with a right-wing government and support from Chega (neofascist), the labor reform has not passed. And it has been thanks to the action of the majority of the Portuguese working class in two general strikes.

    And here Sumar/PSOE without repealing the 2012 dismissal

    Incredible! I'm an informed guy, I watch news for many hours. Newspapers, X, Instagram, etc. It's the first news about this that I've seen. I haven't seen it on TV, nor on the radio, websites, nothing. The information is being held hostage.

    Tiago Oliveira is a mechanic and general secretary of the General Confederation of Workers in Portugal. He has led two general strikes and after 11 months of struggle they have defeated the right-wing neoliberal government.
