00:00A country in industrial decline, with the rights of workers increasingly denied, and an economic maneuver that does not act on wages and pensions.
00:13These are the reasons at the base of the general strike proclaimed by CGL Will, as explained by the Secretary General of the CGL branch, Antonio Di Franco.
00:22We are convinced that this maneuver does not look at the real conditions of the country. We are convinced that this government does not perceive the discomfort that workers are going through at the moment.
00:35Just look at some data. They continue to tell us about a country that is growing, but when we look at the numbers, they have taught me that when zero is a comma something, it is always zero.
00:49Industrial production is declining, we have many crises in the manufacturing sector. It almost seems that this country has lost its industrial vocation, that no one has the idea of what kind of development this country must have, what kind of productive centrality it must also have in the European and international context.
01:09I don't know in which country those who criticize the reasons that have led CGL Will to go berserk live. We have said one simple thing.
01:19Workers and pensioners have paid 17 billion more IRPF this year. We have asked those 17 billion to invest them in health, in schools and in further reduction of the tax cut.
01:34I think that social discomfort is in everyone's eyes and we will be in the square and we have called this strike for all these reasons.
