Strike Demonstration, 28/2, in Athens:
Massive expression of militant moods and the wrath of the people and youth, despite the will of the trade union leaders and the forces of subordination
Athens was flooded. Thousands of strikers and young people took to the streets demonstrating their anger against the barbaric, murderous, anti -populist and anti -labor policy. And this, despite the absence of a strike from the GSEE workers (who continue the subversive for their labor movement), but also against the forces of consensus and submission to "get out of the obligation" and preach and preach it. the end of the matches.
It was clear that the rage over the daily and escalating anti-labor and anti-populist attack is overflowing: the demolition of rights, the unprecedented precision, the attack on the future of the youth itself, in the crusader measures for farmers.
Especially when he coincided with the one-year completion of the massive state-of-state murder in Tempi, and the obvious operation of the concealment of the responsibilities of this rotten system and its managers. It was clear from the previous days that this would give even greater boost to the struggles expressed on the streets for weeks by students and farmers, and despite the rush of farmers to close (just a day earlier!) The agricultural mobilizations. And it was also clear that this mass "meeting" of these moods on the street did not fit into the character of the memorial that the forces of submission wanted to mobilize. Nor should it be disoriented behind the alleged "clarification" operation of the causes and those responsible through examinations and other state committees and bodies. Because the people are well aware that the key responsible for this crime is the bourgeois state itself and the policy of its governments. Policy that exploits, oppresses and murders!
Very massively, with the pulse of the classrooms and racing movements, the racing movements of teachers and the student resistance, promoting slogans of claiming labor rights, defending strikes and class union, defense of your youth struggles, but also solidarity with the fighting Palestinian people. There were a few times that these two composed blocks were applauded from the surrounding world.
The presence of the repressive forces, especially around the blocks that gathered in Havtia is very intense. Indeed, shortly before the end of the demonstration, they were attacking the concentrated and casting chemicals, which they did a little earlier without achieving the dissolution of the demonstration.
Today's strike rally can and should be boosted to the further establishment of the popular and labor movement, to continue the struggles of people and youth. The fact that government provocation continues with the submission of the bill on private universities shows that there is no room for repetition.
