On Party cadres
28 November 2020
Since the XX Congress, our Party has been called to face new and complex challenges, responding to complex and unprecedented demands. We were called to respond to the violent political and ideological offensive resulting from the evolution of the national and international political situation, and worsened, in recent months, by the use that reactionary forces and big capital make of the epidemic outbreak to attack the PCP, rights and freedoms and the democratic regime itself.
Asserting a policy of sovereign development. The Economy’s Strategic Sectors
28 November 2020
Comrades,
At the core of the project to break with the right-wing policy lies breaking with the interests and the domination of big monopoly capital over the country. As a central axis of the alternative, patriotic and left-wing policy which the PCP proposes, lies the ever more necessary goal of recovering public control of the national economy’s strategic sectors.

17 November 2020
The holding of this initiative, and of three dozen more that are taking place from North to South of the country, is the culmination of the national action promoted by the PCP, which began about a month ago with the motto - fight COVID, recover backlogs, guarantee access to healthcare - which aims to draw attention to the health situation and, fundamentally, to denounce the campaign that is underway against the National Health Service, by the economic groups in the business of disease.
Demonstration by the Common Front of Public Administration Trade Unions Common Front in struggle

Public administration workers exercised the right to demonstrate and protest taking into account the situation in which they live.
This action on raising wages, reinforcing rights and strengthening public services, namely Healthcare and Education, deserves to be valued and we are here to show our solidarity with these workers who have not seen a penny of increase for ten years.
The struggle is always necessary, because it and the strength that emanates from it that determines the evolution of events
