Europarliament Debate on EU Response to World Crisis :
| Written by Ralph T. Niemeyer |

 Ralph T. Niemeyer
That our present system is as rotten as the past socialist one becomes obvious when one scrutinises the supply - demand relation. Never before has industry produced such an incredible amount of low quality goods, useless or superfluous products! |
On 18th October antiwar demonstrators demanded the shutting down of the military bases of Creta(Suda) and Aktion. Over 1500 demonstrated in Chania and 300 in Preveza. These demos were organized by Stop the War Coalition Greece in cooperation with Trade unions, student unions and environmentalist.
In Chania the teachers union with its general secretary Serafim Rizos played a decisive role to broaden the campaign in student and school kids. The students of Polytechnic University were there in big contingent and also students from Rethymno and Heraklio. The president of fire brigades Union was their wearing his uniform despite the fact that in Greece this is a militarized body. Also soldiers who are serving in the 115 army unit in the military bases sent a message of solidarity.
The leader of the revolt of Polytechnic University against Greek colonels 1973 Dimitris Papachristou spoke representing the Campaign 60 years of NATO are enough and invited the demonstrators to participate in the international demo in Strasbourg.
In Preveza hundreds demonstrated. Workers from Labor centres and students.
The meetings that followed the demonstrations decided to joon the campaign and to send delegates for the Balkan Antiwar Conference in Athens 29-30 November.

GENERAL STRIKE IN ITALIA 17th OCTOBER :
An absolutely extraordinary day!
An absolutely extraordinary day, the biggest strike ever organized by Cobas and grassroots Trade Unions (Cobas, Cub, Sdl) with a maximum peak of participation in schools, where, in the main cities, we had the 60%-70% strikers, with half of the schools closed.
Very good results also in the public sector, transports and many private sectors.
A massive demonstration in Rome, with 500.000 people marching for 4 hours an more, from Piazza della Repubblica to Piazza San Giovanni, the historical place of trade-unionist gathering, now full of strikers.
Wide presence of the school sector, with students from all school grades, teachers and all school workers, parents and simple citizens against the distruction of Public School , against the massive cuts of 200.000 work places in schools,against the cuts of schooltime, against the restoration of the anachronistic “maestra unica” ( only one teacher in primary schools ) against the infamy of the segregation of migrants in separate classrooms and against the restoration of the school of the ‘800: a school that discriminates, threaths and divides.
The square was full of workers who believe unacceptable that after decades of triumphant liberalism our state admits it has no money and, at the same time, declares that is going to invest money in financing and defendings banks and fraudulent bankers.
Let’s invest this money- workers say- for raising the wages, for adequate pensions;
let’s invest it and cancel the plague of precarious work, giving stable work places;
let’s reestabilish the wage indexation system ;
let’s reinvest in Public School and in Public Health Service.
This is the message of struggle and hope coming from the enormous demonstration in Rome.
Starting from tomorrow we, Cobas, Cub, Sdl, will together restate this message through Italy.
Piero Bernocchi

TRADE UNIONS ? :
One shouldn’t be surprised about the French Prime Minister F. Fillon to argue as he does: he is from the political right.
But, the fact that the trade unions of Europe are still in bed with the other side and follow the wage-dumping logic of the Lisbon Strategy ought to raise eyebrows.
No wonder, we don’t see general strikes and industrial action!
The Banks are, for the moment stabilised, but what about the hedge funds? There is still a liquidity bomb hanging over us and to continue with the Lisbon Strategy means we will speed up and crash against the concrete wall.
Then, at least, we will be able to build a new economic system, but without those who brought this one down, and without unionists who betrayed the cause.
Good luck from the Press room at the EU Summit.

PS Narkozy gave us all a present: a grey jacket. One size fits all, women and men wear the same clothes now, like in the good old days of Mao’s China. I wonder where are we marching?!

Hard to tell what way out Britain in reality has.
Either the new regulations are not applied or the impact will be felt in The City.
Prime Minister Gordon Brown repeats his mantra of The City not being at stake, but that would either mean that his own proposals were not meant to be taken at face value or that he leaves us in the dark about the future of the once leading financial centre in the World.
