All I want for Christmas is an indefinite European General Strike!
Seven general strikes in Greece in a single year; the biggest
student movement Italy has seen in years and by far the largest one in
the UK for the last decade at least; riots raging through France;
thousands taking to the streets of Dublin, of Lisbon and most European
capitals…
Consent is over. There is little of a Christmas spirit in the air
this year, more of a spirit of rage and dissent. On December 15th,
mainstream trade unions across Europe are calling for a day of action
against austerity. A day of action is a start, but it’s not enough.
Austerity and the crisis are cutting through all aspects of our
everyday existence and our reaction should be as widespread, and as
wild.
We need an indefinite European General Strike.
Let’s take back our lives!
