Comprehensive continuation of the second general strike against the reform of the retas in Iparralde
- The French Government wants to delay the retirement age for two years and extend the contribution years. Since introducing the reform on 13 January, thousands of citizens have mobilized in Ipar Euskal Herria in protest against the reform.
On Tuesday, between 13,000 and 15,000 people met in Baiona, according to the unions (10,000 police officers), on the first day of mobilisation on 19 January.
It has been called by the French State Interunion and LAB under the slogan "Bring this unjust reform". The LAB trade union has hanging banners outside the Société Générale. Here's the video of Maite Ubiria, journalist of Naiz.
The main French trade unions have published a joint paper denouncing that "under no circumstances can such a cruel reform be justified". LAB has warned that the changes the government intends to impose will harm the most vulnerable. They have focused on women, who receive pay rents and lower pensions part-time.
In addition to the trade unions, various social partners have shown their support in Baiona on the day of the protest, including Berdin Bizi! ecological movements, Aldak for the right to housing or the Pensioners' Movement of the Basque Country.
The organization has shown its intention to continue mobilizing. Among others, the CGT units of San Juan de Luz and Hendaia have called a concentration for February 2, starting at 18:00 in the Baiona train station.
