Piacenza-emilia-romagnaItaly: The Capitalist Attacks Are Already Beginning
The following articles are translations of a statement and a leaflet issued by our sister organisation in Italy, Battaglia Comunista (Internationalist Communist Party).
Migrant workers in the TNT-FedEx warehouse in Piacenza (Emilia-Romagna) have been on strike for over a fortnight to simply win the same pay and conditions as other workers. Their picket line has been attacked by the police. As if this intimidation were not enough, the police have now resorted to dawn raids at workers’ residences, as the document here tells us. It is not the only such strike. Last week our comrades leafleted the Texprint laundry works in Prato (near Florence), where more migrant workers who work 12 hours a day, 7 days a week, are fighting against the gangsters who own the firm to get national conditions applied. Here too the police attempted to remove the pickets although no arrests were made this time. However, “unknown” elements later drove a pick-up truck at high speed at some of the pickets who had to leap aside as it smashed through the line. The rank and file union SiCobas has recruited many migrant workers in precarious conditions (workers the mainstream unions don’t want to get involved with) but the viciousness of the attacks of both the state and the bosses shows that we need to have a wider and more political struggle against the entire system.
