On 9 April, we all strike and demonstrate in the General strike, picking up the thread from the great General strike of 28 February and the biggest strike demonstrations ever organized in Greece. We are continuing and escalating our strikes to put an end to this gang of unrepentant murderers in government.
The Mitsotakis government, after the vote in parliament on the motion of censure, pretends that it has 'heard the message' and therefore the mobilizations are over, 'you have shouted, you have shouted; now back to business as usual'. The government's reshuffle has shown that they remain determined to escalate their attacks on the working class and its rights.
The main orchestrators of the 'bazaar' remain unmoved with Florides in Justice and Chrysochoidis in Public Order, and the same goes for Adonis Georgaides, the man who is destroying the National Health Service on a daily basis. Even worse, Voridis goes to Immigration in a direct challenge to the movement demanding that the murderers of Pylos be punished.
Mitsotakis and his gang are preparing a new round of escalating attacks. They are aligning themselves with NATO to increase armaments to 3% of GDP as demanded by Trump and the EU, announcing a ferocious program of tens of billions of euros in new armaments, but at the same time declaring that the economy cannot afford to give wage increases, nor the 13th and 14th wage in the public sector.
Hospitals, schools and municipalities are suffering from a shortage of staff, but Mitsotakis' answer is not the recruitment and the regularization of thousands of contract workers, but the evaluation in the public sector, the dismissals and the persecution of 2000 teachers.
These are unrepentant killers who have turned all workplaces into mounds, but at the same time they are hanging on by a thread, ready to collapse, because they are the weakest government, the most hated one that has gathered the wrath of all workers.
It is now obvious to all of us that motions of censure and parliamentary manoeuvres cannot overthrow them. On 9 April, we all strike and demonstrate in the General strike, picking up the thread from the great General strike of 28 February and the biggest strike demonstrations until today. We are continuing and escalating our strikes to put an end to this gang of unrepentant murderers in government
The strike on April 9 can be as big and massive as the one on February 28, and therefore it needs to be organized from below, by the grassroots militants.
In every workplace we should set up strike committees and struggle committees that will take on their shoulders the information and organization of the strike. With daily rallies everywhere and general assemblies in every union and every place. We will ensure that all workplaces will be closed down. Wherever security personnel are needed, the Union should pick them not the management. That they will guard the strike on 9 April and that all of them will come out en masse to the strike rallies of all colleagues.
We are fighting to overthrow the government of the murderers and open another perspective for the labour movement. A perspective that is not limited to the parliamentary solutions of the opposition, but instead puts forward the workers' way out. Workers' control in every workplace, and throughout society. Let the workers take the baton of society, so that we can put an end once and for all to the system that sacrifices our lives every day for the bosses' profits.
