The Italian trade unions Cgil and Uil confirmed the notice for Friday 17 November general strike against the draft state budget of the Meloni government.
This is essentially a response to today’s decision of the “public guarantee committee”, which called on the two unions to redefine their mobilization, mainly due to the fact that it does not concern the to the same degree in all professional branches and regions of the country.
The “Guarantee Committee” is made up of constitutionalists and labor experts, who are chosen by the presidents of the Italian parliament and senate. Its competence is to ascertain whether in every strike mobilization there are guarantees for the safeguarding of basic individual rights, as defined by the country’s Constitution.
“Employees, by striking, lose money. They decided to do it to help improve our country and we will defend, in every way, the right to strike”, underlined the secretary of the Cgil union, Maurizio Ladini.
The two Italian unions appeared until today willing to limit the strike mobilizationsonly in the aviation sectors and in what concerns the operation of the Fire Service.
The Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Matteo Salvini, said tonight that “his aim is not to create problems for millions of Italians who travel by public transport” and that “if necessary, he will sign a decision so that this sector is not paralyzed for an entire 24 hours” .
