Abdala summoned “middle and small sectors, businessmen from the city and the countryside, whose work is adjusted by an adjustment of greater inequality of big capital,” he pointed out. “All popular sectors let’s join ideas for a program of solutions to this very aggressive policy for those of us who live from our work”, he stated.
Other axes of the main oratory will be pension reform and collective bargaining. “It is an instrument that we have and that today we are seeing that the Executive Power decides the announcements without convening the areas that really should do so for the different discussions,” explained the general secretary of the union central Elbia Pereira in dialog with Underline.
