Belgian general strike Monday, ITF comment

27/01/12

Commenting on Monday’s planned Belgian general strike, ITF general secretary David Cockroft said: “On Monday in Belgium, transport stops. Planes, trains and ports will all be affected. All part of a day of protest by the country’s workers and unions, who are saying no to further cuts being forced through by a government acting dangerously recklessly under pressure to meet EU targets.”

ITF president and chair of the ITF dockers section, Paddy Crumlin, said: “Transport workers are playing a vital part in this strike. Belgium’s docker unions will also be in the frontline, protesting against plans that could strip them of legal protections under the guise of ‘austerity’ and ‘modernisation’.”
