CGIL appeal for social cohesion: 'On the streets against inequalities'

An appeal for the convening of a square "to combat inequalities and injustices and to build a more just society, which recognizes itself in the values ​​of the Constitution, to make it apply and to make it live". It is the one launched by the CGIL of Milan, which gives an appointment to "civic, social, trade union and political forces" and to "all those individuals and associations who work daily for social cohesion" for tomorrow, at 6.30 pm, in Piazza della Scala in Milan.

"The events that hit Milan on Saturday and Sunday are very serious - we read on the union's website -. The destruction, acts of vandalism and looting are unacceptable acts, to be condemned, which cannot have anything to do with dissent, freedom of expression and social protest. The violence of these hours has also affected those who work. Seeing scenes of devastated places and things, but above all of workers brutally beaten leaves us petrified. We will always be on the side of the dissent, but we will never be able to defend those who express it with violence. Our solidarity goes to those who have unjustly suffered violence. The right-wing government does not invest in any way in social cohesion, in wage growth, in policies that support work, young people, the right to study, the right to live, it is only capable of crying foul when social tension explodes. inadequate for the cost of living".
