New York Gay Cruising Toilet

The City puts "sell" his property! From

The City showcases the real estate for sale. Tuesday, February 1 at 18, in the monumental complex of Abbadia a Isola, Monteriggioni of the City Administration will submit its plan for real estate sales, already approved by the City Council.

"I would call real estate marketing operation - suggests the mayor Bruno Valentini-precisely because this public meeting is to promote knowledge of the outside of buildings or land that the municipality intends to dispose of.

are pieces of non-strategic assets, which will be used to pay for new public works, especially to address the limitations imposed by the Stability Pact, which makes it difficult to pay suppliers promptly. "At the meeting were invited, through their trade associations, construction companies in the province of Siena, but participation is open to all and especially to the professionals the industry. "

disposal plan; real estate marketing operation, now the words have lost their meaning, I do this I call his name, you are of peasant stock, but I prefer to say "bread bread and wine wine "! This is more than a" sale and real estate marketing operation " first is a sale of land, territory and then, when there will be built on the land the houses. (since the recipients are mainly manufacturers of enchantment, enough to make one plus one that you understand what will be done on the land !)

Surely it is a road that leads to a dead end, since the sale of these assets is used to pay for public works and / or missing or reduced revenue from state corrente.Quindi in the immediate future, (better an egg today than a hen tomorrow), will be compensated for and covered the calendar works but for the future?

For the future we are not in good shape, the lost revenues this year will be no comparison to the cuts in coming years and the planned public works are many and expensive, and since the construction will take several years to cover the costs should be listed many other lands, and so ad infinitum, in a vicious circle, but land ownership are not infinite, then what will happen in the years ahead we will not know, but certainly if we do not stop this way of working we will not have land or property to sell and we may have to resort to loans, as did other municipalities, but even this road is uncertain, or devise some other financial alchemy to find resources, such as those already tested, where the Town Council in issuing the building permit, even with the "concession" mc in a few more, is ok to sign an agreement where you give the manufacturer one or more flats to relocate the property market free.

More than alchemy, call transaction of real estate speculation, given that the flats are put on the market at current price.

Or consider to reduce public works as "monumental and expensive" for less expensive but necessary.

But something else emerges, surrender more and more clear to use public property in the possession of common: now in the name of budget problems and lack resources, much of this heritage is (s) sold to private!

I Want To Masterbate To Hayden Panettiere

Fiat workers a chance to increase the weight of the left

interview Stefano Galieni to Roberta Fantozzi

After one week of voting Mirafiori much has happened.

It 's true, but that vote must go and must continue to emphasize the value, rejecting the attempts of ambition, to make it clear from the chaotic noise of the communication media. As has been pointed out, even at Mirafiori recententemente mobilizations were more difficult than elsewhere, the heavier the apparatus of control, the higher the average age of workers. That result, in the deadly blackmail fielded, is the demonstration of the level of awareness and willingness to fight that exists in the factories of this country. The awareness that we are at a transition "history" where in the largest post-war crisis, the attempt is to determine a regression in the materiality of the deadly work conditions and rights of the worker, making a clean sweep of both the industrial relations of the Constitution. The willingness to fight is the one that has arisen in the completion of this awareness, interweaving with the role played by the Fiom: the investment of trust gained in the field by Fiom in each step of these very difficult months, identify it as "the union" and more. Since it is clear that particularly since the October 16 demonstration, the ability to link movements to submit an alternative platform altogether determine the facts in a substitution role of policy: a policy that is on the wrong side or that, if is on the right side, not the level of effectiveness that would be necessary.

The act goes on attack in .

Statements of Federmeccanica which was followed by those of Confindustria explicit, without veils, what is the goal "System", a goal entirely understandable since the separate story on the contract system, which certainly has been a spurt Fiat extreme. It 's amazing that in the face of Pomigliano has said that this was an exception and that even after it is thought that after all the logic of the new company concerned large multinational corporations but not the whole company, as he tried to reassert Director General of Federmeccanica. The replacement of the national corporate contract, means the breaking of any interest to workers in small businesses and a butcher shop where the union is weak or nonexistent. Corporatization and individualization of the Reports work are the explicit goal, pursued by both Federmeccanica and Confindustria, the government and the labor legislation that was approved. Just think of the Linked Work and give the push that individualisation of the employment relationship. He said a companion last national activities, which is a good bet that the workers who will be individually summarized by the new company, the contract will also find the arbitration clause: that which refers to any dispute to arbitration and prevents access to the courts . While on the other hand the draft statute for workers, by which formally does not affect the rights, waived depending on the economic situation: the rights become legally dependent variables on the market! Corporatization and individualization of labor relations and set a clean sweep of the individual and collective rights, as recognized by law and the Constitution. The workplace and society, transformed into barracks, where those who work in small arms is in competition with other arms without autonomy, possibilities for organizing collective rights. Instead of giving rights to those who are uncertain, what is happening is an attempt to generalize, worsening the condition of blackmail that the instability requires dramatically today to millions of people.

How do you counter an attack of this reach?

There are several levers that must act. Fiom rightly said that now, since if you do not vote Mirafiori reopened the negotiations, would have covered all avenues, including the judiciary. The diktat of Mirafiori and Pomigliano to offer wide area, since there are still laws and Constitution. Non-application of regulations on the sale of a business - the foundation of the whole operation newco - sickness, right to strike and freedom of association: there is something for everyone! Then there is the trade union and political struggle. The strike and the demonstrations of 28 will be very important and extremely positive on that date there has been a convergence of grassroots unions, while the need for the CGIL Squaderno proclaim a general strike. There is no way that it does not conflict in a given field and durable, so all the conditions are, however, as evidenced by their willingness to fight the extraordinary in the vote of Mirafiori and Pomigliano before, in the increasing resistance that is determined in this country. As shown in the new movement of students and temporary workers. The management right of the crisis component of a social model that undermines the substance of the Constitution is an opposite movement of another constituent social model. Moreover, in many moves, multiply the answers: United by the crisis, the establishment of Labour and Freedom, the appeal of Micromega. There are conditions for the construction of a mass political movement against the return to 800 and for an alternative.

And politics?

The PD showed the point at which the mutation has arrived. Crippling coexistence of different lines is evident not only how heavy it had not challenged the social-liberal system, but the pieces of material interest that specifically refer to that party. This confirms the correctness of our analysis on the impossibility of a perspective government with that party and is Squaderno the need to rebuild a political representation in the workplace. A challenge for us in a process of reconstruction of the maximum possible relations unit to the left, with the arc of forces at Mirafiori said NO. Building relations unit, to accelerate in a political framework in which all the more opaque it is possible that the fall of the government is on the agenda and this is a lens decisive, but in the meantime there is the usual presence in the PD options different and, to listen to the interview of Enrico Letta a few days ago, the major priorities of research alliances with the third prong.
Rebuilding the political representation of world of work and the best cards with this objective reporting unit, means questioning on what project, which wires to pull, and the crisis in the specific features of Italian capitalism.

There are four nodes in my view, inescapable.
The first is democracy, because democracy means the set-up of power and therefore as the weight of the interests in society. The need for a law on union democracy, modeled on the proposal of the Fiom, goes along with the need to overcome the bipolar. The two things are held more than it is clarified. The necessity of reappropriation of workers to decide on their working condition, is the necessity of reappropriation of the citizens of the land of political representation inhibited by the majority today, that is, whether you build coalitions Islam by force as the main criterion is to take a vote more than others, by the type of deployments. Moreover, the bipolarity comes to proof by the institutional sphere of social conflict.
The second is the need to reform the world of work. With its implications on the ground of the contracts and the type of labor relations. Reunification of the categories, drastic reduction in the number of labor relations and reaffirmation of the centrality of the relationship of indefinite duration, the renewal of the false self-employment to the protection of employees.
The third is an initiative for a radical redistribution of wealth in a country where the gap is unsustainable levels. If the fifteen richest OECD countries the share of wages in GDP has declined by 10 percentage points between 1976 and 2006 in Italy fell by 15 in favor of annuities. So balance sheet, income taxation, tax evasion.
The fourth channel resources to public production of public goods: industrial policies, knowledge and welfare. Industrial policies, because the low labor productivity in Italy is the result of "small is beautiful" in past years, and absence of investment in product innovation, which radicalized the competition in saturated areas. Because the ecological crisis makes sovraordinante the conversion of the economy and industrial sectors. Public Policy: an audience to be renewed in the name of transparency and participation, to rebuild the capacity of intervention in the economy that it brings into question the dominance of globalized capitalism. Knowledge: to rehabilitate the productive apparatus, but also for a society of free men and women. Extension of the welfare state: income is on the ground that the enlargement of the sphere of social services in a country where young women experience a significantly worse condition the rest of Europe.

Not very unrealistic situation in which we live?

We know that the balance of power are very far from the possibility of achieving these goals tomorrow and that the processes, not least the heavy decline in the European context, are going in the opposite direction. What is to be built in the meantime, common sense is the knowledge that those policies destroy society and radicalize the crisis. The business model of industrial relations in the United States that you want to import in Italy, with the heavy compression of wages and rights that you have determined, is a cause of the crisis and therefore can not be the solution. We should be able to fix. It does something that the International Monetary Fund to notice in a report in late September last year, that unemployment is unsustainable as it is the growth of inequalities, the crisis is to demand and exports can not substitute for domestic demand, which countries that have introduced more flexible working are paying a higher price in terms of unemployment, restrictive fiscal policies that affect generalized recovery. This was not because, to quote Wallerstein, the IMF, has become "the spokesman of the world left." But it is clear that instability is very high given the crisis and it is equally clear that serves to identify a comprehensive program to rebuild a different common sense and therefore the subjective conditions necessary for a possibility of change.
add a final point, last not least. There is a need to build a framework that holds together these proposals. I think that should be discussed much more to the left what was called in the call this summer the 250 economists and Emiliano Brancaccio in particular has repeatedly made clear: the end of the hegemony of free-swinging, not through the recipe for political protectionist classic that are activated as well - although it is true that in the last two years were hired 332 new protectionist measures at international level - but the idea that it is legitimate to restore mechanisms controlling and limiting the movement of capital, on financial grounds, the investment and trade in goods, where there is sufficient remuneration of labor. A proposal can also be extended to the field of social and environmental protection, and also translated into a technically defined mechanism. If the neo-liberal globalization has been the freedom of capital to field a gigantic process of wage dumping and tax going around the world where it was cheaper, it is assumed that this must be questioned.

How do you combine a project of this type with the "here and now"?

I believe that good ideas are long - as it is essential to equip the strength across Europe - and together serve also practice court. Having a plan is essential to stay in the construction of the conflict and movements. And there are positive signs, even for what concerns us. This party that has spent lavishly in the construction of 16 October, is also strongly in the field now for 28 January. Commitment of partners at Mirafiori in Turin, 130 banquet held in the Veneto to support on 28, to the many ongoing initiatives. It is changing its skin. I was struck by a political committee devoted entirely to disputes in Emilia, the construction of movement, social practices. Many talented young people, and stories also loads of emotion. Like when a friend said that the money collected by orange metalmenccanica to support a dispute, were given by those workers to migrant workers employed by another company, in the factory for cleaning. As if to say to break the field divisions and in reweaving of solidarity, to overthrow the imagination of the scapegoat. Project, conflict, construction of a political and social alternative left.

derivatives, which are common in debt!

of Municipalities Verona and Venice still struggling with Merrill Lynch

If you close all outstanding derivatives contracts, the government of North-East should pay 99 million euro. In so much is the market value of such financial products purchased by 39 local authorities of the three regions.

The government does not have the resources today to do this, and some of them - Verona, Padua and Venice - are hung on the causes or subpoenas that block extinction.

In Verona, in particular, the town hall, led by Flavio Tosi will demonstrate how to Merrill Lynch, the investment bank that in 2007 the city signed with a derivative of 256.8 million, has applied hidden fees.

But the more time passes, it becomes more costly to maintain and even settle derivatives.

Data (Bank of Italy) also say that the Veneto is being, in this sense, among the most disadvantaged regions of Italy, in the territory since the ratio of total debt of the institutions and the market value of products above the national average (1.38% compared with 1, 1%). Better go, things in Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Trentino-Alto Adige (free of these problems).
'Classics derivatives should be closed as soon diminish their market value following the drop in interest rates - say experts -. In addition, advisory services are: the management of these contracts is at the limit of amateurism "

The cost of derivatives accounts for 99 million

The cost to be incurred to close once and for all derivatives contracts, amounted to a total of 39 governments involved in the North-East, 99 million €. The figure corresponds to the market value at June 2010, according to figures from the Bank of Italy. The weight loss of derivatives - contracts often used to fund "spot" in favor of the administration in office, and transfer costs "out" when the government will be to others - seems to be higher than the Italian average, particularly the Veneto, as the ratio of government debt involved and the total market value of the products purchased is higher than the national average.

In Veneto at the end of 2009, government debt amounted to 6.484 billion. In June 2010, if local authorities had closed its derivatives were switched on in the past had to suffer a loss of 90 million. The relationship between these two values \u200b\u200b(90 million and 6.484 billion) is equal to 1, 38 per cent. When compared to the result of this relationship with the national average (1.1%) one gets a differential (1.38% - 1.1% = 0.28%) indicates that, being greater than the national average, as the derivatives in the Veneto are producing more damage than the national average.

From December 2005 to June 2010 has also changed the cost the possible closure of the transaction related to "derivatives": it increased from an initial 18 million to 90 million. However, the significant increase occurred in recent months (higher cost of 30 million by the end of 2009 to June 2010). Spreading the cost of the number of public bodies involved can obtain the average figure for an institution: in December 2005 was € 621mila while June had risen to 3,000,000. Another interesting fact is the evolution of this cost than the national average. In December 2005 in the Veneto was 621mila € 1.709 million against the national average, while June was 3,000,000 against 3,300,000 national average. Thus the situation in Veneto is much worse compared to the average Italian.

Given the high cost that requires a possible closure of a derivative, governments are far from being able to do so. But there's good news from two judgments of the Administrative Court. On 5 November, the Tar of Tuscany has made a ruling that seems to offer the public the opportunity to tear up contracts on derivatives if it is shown that in the contract were not clearly specified costs or onerous clauses. The Administrative Court has approved - with retroactive effect - the annulment in self-defense by the province of Pisa, the two swap agreements in 2007 with lenders Depfa Crediop and counterparties. The contract, in fact, would be borne - as noted by the external experts contacted the province of Pisa - from hidden costs for 1.4 million euro. The basis for the cancellation, the violation of the "principle of cost-effectiveness" established by the 2002 budget.

In recent days, even the civil court of Rimini has spoken in favor of a public body, renegotiated after three interest rate swap contracts, has even worsened its financial position. The court issued a ruling of invalidity of the contract.

Regarding Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Trentino-Alto Adige, the situation is much better than the Veneto. In Friuli-Venezia Giulia in late 2009, the government debt amounted to 2.840000000000. In June 2010 if the local government had closed its derivatives were switched on in the past had to suffer a loss of 9 million. The relationship between these two values \u200b\u200b(9 million 2.840000000000) is equal to 0.32% which is below the national average, which indicates that the derivatives are produced in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia less damage than the national average. From early 2010 to June, however, contrary to what happened in the Veneto, in this region there has been only a slight increase in the cost (8000000-9000000). As regards the average cost per institution in December 2005 was € 3.5 million while in June had dropped to 1 million (compared with 3.3 million average national).

In Trentino-Alto Adige in late 2009, government debt amounted to 1.169 billion. In June 2010 the local government no longer had any derivative contract on. Only case in Italy along with the Valle d'Aosta.

LIVORNO - Saturday January 29, 2011 at Mirafiori

Communists together for the class opposition and the alternative system

rebuild and re-establish the Communist Party,

boost anti-capitalist left,

build a broad front of resistance to the crisis

"Let's go back to the center of social conflict, not to Fiat blackmail, just with government policies "


front of us we have a devastating economic crisis. It is not just a financial crisis and not a normal cyclical crisis but - this is now a general consensus, despite the propaganda of political economy - a major crisis deep and "system" probably the most serious crisis of valorization of capital for many decades now.

The owners are seeking new and more effective ways to evade taxes, wages and compress them to escape blame and responsibility. Because we know that the crisis is not the same for everyone and are the most disadvantaged social classes - classes which Gramsci called the "subaltern" - to pay the costs.

Those social subjects that until recently would have been undoubtedly called "proletariat" - the employee, self-employment parasubordinate, mass job insecurity, labor youth training - you are now faced with a blackmail newspaper as that established by the Fiat Marchionne or agrees to sell at the lowest price, relinquishing any right acquired, or you're out and your livelihood is at risk. In addition, for the first time since the war these classes have to face the crisis without a qualified their political representation, no representation, that is, that is able to defend the immediate interests but also to propose an alternative and comprehensive system.

This absence, this catastrophe of the political left that has been manifested since 2008, makes it even worse the economic crisis, because it feeds a dangerous war between the poor - North against South, whites against blacks, against particularism particularism, jobs versus environment ... -, and gives the sign of reactionary hegemony. But this absence and this disaster are not a random phenomenon and contingent. They are rather the consequence of a very simple fact: all the spaces of viability for neoriformiste hypotheses designed to draw a "capitalism with a human face", such as attempt a few years ago, are now closed. That in a nutshell: there is no longer any money from share and traditional welfare is definitely gone - unless we add, not calling into question the so-called compatibility and the sacred bond of private property (profits, large estates, military spending, tax evasion, ...).

course, the bosses and the ruling class are taking advantage of this international crisis to destroy labor rights, democracy and the environment, hoping to share the profits levels to their advantage in global competition. Meanwhile, the metal workers and students, temporary workers and migrant workers, homeless and unemployed people, occupy the roof and down the streets to withstand the crisis, but the social conflicts in the country, which also are increasing, they are scattered and lack A summary of the municipality. In other words, the class struggle is all right, but is acted out only by the owners towards the lower classes.

How can we push this movement?

Certainly not under the illusion of riding, to dominate or to impose a few lines from the top. But even trying to prove reliable at the PD and sectors employers more "modern", in other words by choosing the alliance with Montezemolo instead Marchionne, as some unfortunately still do. We need, instead, to repeat on a new basis the same hard work that has led more than a century and a half ago to build the labor movement. There is a need, that is, to regroup a broad front of resistance against capitalism, the communists should openly support and which should prove to be protagonists.

is not enough today to be mere spectators or serve as external improbable shores. The risk is that the hopes for social change that are re-express the streets inevitably frustrated by the pro-capitalist policies of new "friendly governments". In this sense, it seems clear that attempts to involve the next class in the primaries of the Democratic Party by supporting the leading Vendola, just as the cancellation of the ephemeral and the re turn of Chianciano alliance government by the FDS, we will report on the same road wrong and bankruptcy of the Rainbow.

If we want to rebuild and reestablish a Communist party strong and credible, this is the moment of struggle and of building a broad anti-capitalist opposition. On the other hand, are not adequate and appropriate for even the minority responses so far put in place, with micro-or small parties with anti-political refuge in a busy inconclusive. This road may only fuel the silent diaspora and the fragmentation of anti-capitalist and communist forces.

We believe, on the contrary, it is urgently needed:

- act to combine, connect and protect energies conflict, the military comrades, and placed both inside and outside the Communist Party of FdS; defend resistant communities and political experiences, particularly those of basic contact different critical realities in the country, still disconnected and fragmented, apart from references to different areas and organizations, to prevent the disagreement becoming distrust and disengagement;

- develop sounding boards permanent between all the experiences and communist anti-capitalist, social and political research and willing to work together, and this strictly on the grounds of content, analysis and practical experience in social struggles, suggesting convergence on common struggle to build a process of regrouping on class content;

- to strengthen, monitor and connect the presence of / lle comrades, and sections of circles and PdCI PRC, the various forces and realities that are common in social struggles, acting in a dialectical manner (direct engagement, proposal, policy guidance in the synthesis and / movements) and also making the necessary always possible to clarify the contradiction between social engagement and representative political institutions, which often threatens to destroy the credibility of our policy measure

- reaffirming the need for a Communist Party cadres with a mass of roots, but fill this statement, which in itself is likely to be formalistic and even fetishistic, with concrete. We need a thorough review on key issues such as policy, internal democracy, the party form, contrast to training and separation of the political classes, the criticism of "duplicity", all'istituzionalismo, the Government so as dogmatic sectarianism. We need a proper education and training, a renewed elaboration on the issue of youth and on the south, the difference gender on the relationship between environment and class contradictions, the sense of militancy and the indispensable role of the opposition, on the management of resources.

- regroup on programs and targets a specific anti-capitalist left, a broad front of political and social realities present in places of conflict, with the goal of rebuilding an independent and autonomous representation of the class and facilitate the establishment of a social bloc antagonistic to the interests of capitalism.

We propose a first national meeting for all / and / comrades, the anti-capitalist and communist forces, and all reality interested in this route .

The meeting will be held Saturday, January 29, 2011 in Livorno, for the occasion of the 90th anniversary of the founding of PCDI (January 21, 1921) is not merely a rhetorical celebration but an occasion to rethink and relaunch ' unity and the autonomy of communists in our country. To go back to being the heart of the opposition of class, and not for an alternative system for an alternative government.

Patched Heart Gold (u)

starts the class struggle, because dignity is priceless.

The results of the referendum among the workers at Fiat Mirafiori leave no room for interpretation, despite the shamelessness of some comments from from other unions.
47% of "No" marks the victory beyond doubt the presence of the dignity of those who have staged a shameful blackmail campaign against the workers demanding in exchange for investment, the waiver of rights unavailable.
The CGIL has sided with his class, claiming the dignity of the union and more representative of all workers, and then watched indignantly to the unacceptable positions of Prime Minister Berlusconi in support of irresponsibility Marchionne Fiat AD. Now
government and business should take note of the outcome of the vote risicatissima well beyond the victory of "Yes". The race to the bottom - one that impact on reducing the cost of labor and social guarantees, leaving intact the real reasons for the frightening lack of competitiveness of the Lingotto - certainly will not help Fiat to be the global market.
E 'therefore necessary that top management attitude change immediately, fully respecting the prerogatives of all the employees concerned for their future and for the systematic infringement of the rights provided for therein. The dispute thus remains open.
And if we were to continue to attend provocations - to begin by opposing the new blackmail sacrosanct protest - we immediately launch the proposed nationalization of the Fiat. Why are we talking about a heritage of Italy and its workers.


Despite the material and moral blackmail to which they were subjected, "and vote yes or you are sent in the middle of a road," nearly half the total of over 5,000 workers of the Fiat Mirafiori heroically decided not to bow to the "dictates "Marchionne's plan and his neo-slavery. Decided to move the final verdict in favor of the SI was the vote of the 500 employees and middle managers who participated in the vote even if the agreement which were not touched in any way called to express their bargaining position.

The memory can not then go back to 1980 when the so-called "march of the white-collar imposed the end to the occupation of the plant that lasted uninterrupted for Torinese 35 days, marking perhaps the most crushing defeat of the labor movement after the war. Since then, over the past thirty years, the working class has experienced the worst period in its history has seen the introduction of casual and temporary, the decrease in wages, raising the retirement age and the loss of trade union rights. The present attempt of the bosses, to whom the Mirafiori and agreements Pomigliano are only representations, goes even beyond these defeats: we want to actually bring the 800 production methods and conditions for workers with those of slavery.

, as now, to pursue their interests, the owners have found some allies in the workers themselves, in the union "yellows" and heads of department. Where can not despair staff worker for her master to corrupt, to buy, divide, lie and deceive: To put one against the other workers.

The fact remains that the establishment of production centers in the body NO has won everywhere, and without the vote of "pictures" enslaved, the NO would win, although measuring the total workforce. Marchionne does not come at all then the winner in this fight. In fact now he is aware that the majority of the workers avverserà continuously, they can expect in the future also the support of only those who voted YES to despair, that around the heroic resistance of the workers of Mirafiori is tightening a united front to fight ready to set up a general strike to the bitter end. So if

Mirafiori thirty years ago marked the end of the class struggle in Italy, today Mirafiori can and should become the symbol and the starting point of a new era of workers' struggle.

------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------

There is no shame in the yield of workers Fiat. What happened had to be relentlessly. The Italian working class is capped under the steamroller of capitalist reaction. As time? Nothing is lost if it remains intact conscience and faith, if they surrender their bodies but not their hearts.
The Fiat workers for years have fought hard, have their blood soaked the streets, hungry and cold, and they remain, to this their glorious past, at the forefront of the Italian proletariat, they are soldiers faithful and devoted to the revolution.
have done all that is given to men of flesh and blood, let us take off his hat before their humiliation, because in it is something big that it requires sincere and honest.

Can The Hymen Be Deep In

resist fascism business

This start to the year 2011 did not bring any good news on the front of the work and rights in general, trampled at every turn, just think that Marchionne was elected Man of the Year by the Sun 24 hours, Journal of Confindustria, the one confederation of industrial Marchionne has decided to leave, to be unfettered to pursue his "revival plan" (not to be confused with that of Gelli) "industrial course" for a world of underpaid work.
I just have to make room for Cremaschi words that sum up the whole drama of Italy today.



Whatever happens in the referendum Mirafiori we'll carry on. The struggle against authoritarianism and fascism business Marchionne and decent work and leisure will continue.

E 'was the Fiat will this referendum, as shown by even the awkward demands of some unions to postpone it. It 'was the Fiat of God who wanted the final opinion on the national contract and the rights and liberties union.

Mirafiori workers should vote on behalf of all workers in the renunciation of all Italians. This referendum has no formal legality and morality, it's just a brutal extortion of damage to workers and workers who, in the free state, would have no doubt say no. The first Fiat said it was not prepared to threatening not to accept the closure of the factory. Why then, in the opposite case, it should Fiom? Knowing that even those who vote will do so with anger and tears in their eyes?

that the main opposition party, which calls itself democratic, does not see the infringement of constitutional principles of democracy in this authoritarian plebiscite, is the biggest victory of Berlusconi. This referendum is illegal and morally formally, because according to the agreement should be the last time you vote. As in all dictatorships, you vote not to vote anymore. You do not elect more union representatives, and the meetings of today should be the breaking free. Entries will be banned at the Fiom, as well as any form of free choice of auditors. How to call this but fascism business? On the other hand, to enforce the conditions of over-exploitation that Fiat wants it can only create a system of blackmail. Even after the vote, should it pass, yes, the workers always suffer the threat of dismissal or individual with the terms halter that will be forced to sign a
for one, or closure of the factory, as it is written in the agreement.

face of this shame all the words seem insufficient and perhaps only the tears of senior Fiat, which appeared on all TV, express the drama. Who sees this progress or is it a villain or an idiot. However the vote goes

workers will not be left alone because the Fiom at their side, inside and outside the factory, as well as trade union initiative in the courts. Fiom not ever sign this agreement and continue the struggle to overthrow him. We have managed the Germans in 1945, to destroy Mirafiori, Marchionne will not succeed today.

Giorgio Cremaschi
