ETUC – 24 March 2011: European Day of Action in Brussels
Trade union demonstrations and rallies will take place in Brussels on 24 March, as part of the ETUC’s European Day of Action. The aim of this Day of Action is to highlight trade unions opposition to the European economic governance proposal which will be examined during a European Summit on 24-25th March.
Several actions will take place in Brussels on 24 March, to say ‘no’ to austerity plans in Europe, no to cuts in wages and pensions, no to insecurity + unemployment, no to deregulation of labour standards and social regression, and no to rising social inequalities.
European trade union mobilisation will continue beyond the 24th, as a day of action is planned in London on 26 March and a Euro-demonstration will take place in Budapest on 9 April. Other actions will take place in France on 22 March, with the participation of German Confederation of Trade Unions (DGB), in Spain on 22 and 24 March, in Germany with the participation of French trade unions on 24 March, and in the Interregional Trade Union Councils (IRTUCs).
