256 union members are currently the subject of legal proceedings for facts that happened within the framework of a general strike. They incur heavy fines or prison sentences. The CCOO and UGT unions are calling for mobilization across the country on July 9. They denounce a premeditated legal offensive against the right to strike and union freedom, aimed at deterring workers from exercising their right to mobilize by presenting the right to strike as a delinquent activity.
“They won’t hush us up.” This is the unions’ watchword, calling for a national day of mobilization on July 9 to protest against the “judicial persecution” of their activists, currently leading to a restriction of the right to strike.
