Strike in the public service of Ipar Euskal Herria
The draft budget of the French Government provides for a day of mobilisation to denounce the cuts in social security. The demonstration will start at 10:00 hours from the entrance to the Baiona station.
Disturbances will be present in transport, education, health and other public services. Specifically, the strike was convened by the CGT, CFDT, Unsa, FSU, Solidaires, CFE-CGC and FA-FP unions throughout the French State, as well as by LAB in the provinces of Lapurdi, Baja Navarra and Zuberoa. FO has not joined the call, as it says that it takes more than a day of strike to carry it out.
Seven months after the last call for inter-union strike for the civil service, the call for strike may be widely followed.
Basque officials have a day of protest against the austerity policies of the French Government. On the one hand, greater control of "civil servants absenteeism", the government plans to achieve savings of EUR 1.2 billion. How? Reduction of stop-of-work payments or abolition of some aids. "On the basis of false readings, the government's maneuver is particularly disgusting because it affects health and disease management." Trade unions will strongly denounce the objective of weakening public services: "Hidden behind a false message of equality, the government aims to empty the blood of the unprecedented public service."
Workers in the electricity and gas sector are also on strike, with the aim of putting pressure on wage negotiations. The farmers may also be moved, seeing that they have already resumed the protest.
French finances are in "crisis", as the planned public deficit for this year is 6%. As a solution to the dilemma, Prime Minister Michel Barnier has proposed tax increases and expenditure reductions for Greece.
Two weeks ago, the financing of the French radio stations was at issue, as the French Ministry of Culture intended to reduce subsidies to local associations by 35%. At that time, there were about 200 associations in the labour market, including Euskal Irratiak of Iparralde.
