All on General Strike tomorrow!

10 December 2025

With the legal coverage of the advance notice handed by CGTP-IN, which was supported and reinforced by others, all workers have the possibility and duty of class solidarity to join the general strike tomorrow, December 11. The reasons also affect everyone. We must reject and force the Government to withdraw the labour package, which threatens us all, and demand higher wages, more rights and more and better public services for everyone.

AGAINST THE LABOUR PACKAGE 11 Reasons to go on strike

Raise National Minimum Wage to €1050 already in January!

10 December 2025

When everybody swears eternal love for wage increases, the PCP once again provides the opportunity for the Assembly of the Republic to decide to increase the national minimum wage to €1050 as early as January, thereby stimulating a general increase in wages and the valorisation of the careers and professions of all workers. Those who say ‘wages yes, but not now’ will come up with the old refrain: companies can't cope, we need to create wealth and then distribute it, productivity has to increase, and so on...

Workers are not numbers and they are not parts; they are the ones who produce wealth and should be valued

Mr. Prime Minister, a preliminary note: MP Mr. Hugo Soares kindly brought up the issues surrounding the labour package but managed to spend eight minutes talking about the labour package without mentioning a single measure contained in it. It should also be noted that CHEGA and Iniciativa Liberal tried to sidestep this issue, but Mr. Prime Minister, I would like to ask three specific questions.

Government diverts public resources to real estate speculation, driving up prices and increasing housing precariousness

4 December 2025

1. The changes in the fiscal field that the PSD/CDS Government intends to promote with the request for legislative authorisation submitted yesterday to the Assembly of the Republic constitute an unacceptable choice in favour of real estate speculation and fiscal injustice. The diversion of public resources to real estate funds, banks and large real estate owners is at the heart of this tax package, which goes even further than what was announced in September. 2. Among other serious aspects, the following stand out:

4 December 2025

Let’s not repeat the same mistake! We still have time to stop the economic crime that is the privatisation of TAP. A criminal investigation is underway into evidence of crimes committed during the process of the privatisation of TAP in 2015, but also during the period of private management, which the PCP denounced at the time because TAP was acquired by a private group with TAP's own money, and also denounced the excesses of private management.

The proposals in the Labour Package reek of stale ideas against workers' rights

3 December 2025

The ongoing mobilisation for the General Strike, with the support of a wide range of sectors, is already a powerful demonstration of rejection of the Labour Package that the Government and the rest of the right-wing, serving the interests of employers, intend to impose, in a serious setback for rights and an unacceptable worsening of the exploitation of workers. The more the Minister of Labour attacks the workers, the clearer the intentions of the Government and employers become, the more unity grows, and the conviction increases that this struggle is just.
