PAME calls on all unions, associations, federations, the Regional TU Centres to continue more vigorously their action. To proceed with confidence to the working class the discussion on organizing GENERAL NATIONWIDE STRIKE on November 27th to escalate our struggle.
The road has been opened through the preparation for the rally of November 1st. The organization of the working class, the coordination of forces must continue with a new dynamic, nationwide, in every sector, in every region, in every work place.
The forces of PAME at the meeting of the Executive Committee of the GSEE, insisted that a prerequisite for the organization and militancy of the working class is the context of the demands. They are required to meet the modern needs of the workers, the unemployed, youth, and the women. They must demand increases in salaries and pensions, measures for the relief of the unemployed, to be against the government’s plans for new attack on social security. They must reveal the cause that creates the suffering of the working class, the direction and orientation of the movement in line of conflict with the interests of the monopolies, the EU and the governments.
On the other hand, the leadership of GSEE remains committed to demands based on the “strength of the economy”, the needs of the monopolies. That is a line that undermines the movement and creates conditions for illusions, waiting and finally submission.
We urge all unionists who have sincere concerns and anxieties, any trade union that is interested in the progress of the labour movement and that is fighting against the policy that impoverishes the people, to take all measures for the organization and the success of the General Strike.
By our actions, our struggles and our demands depends our “salvation”, our decent life, us having steady, full time jobs, with rights.
With faith in our right and our power, the General Strike to be an even more strong message of resistance and demand.
We do not accept the conditions of modern misery
Do not settle with bread crumbs
We demand the life that we deserve
