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.

The PCP stands in solidarity with the Communist Party of Poland

2 December 2025

Following the new attempt to ban the Communist Party of Poland, through a motion presented by the President of Poland, Karol Nawrocki, to the Constitutional Court, the PCP sent a letter to the Embassy of Poland in Portugal expressing its profound indignation and repudiation of this unacceptable initiative. The adoption of this initiative will represent a serious attack on democratic rights and freedoms in Poland, based on an unacceptable and dangerous operation of historical revisionism, which aims to criminalise the communist ideal and ban the actions of Polish communists.

The PCP's opposition to this government bill is already well known, but how did you view the Prime Minister's statement about the possibility of a general strike, calling on trade unions to act responsibly and saying that workers' interests should not be captured by party interests?

PCP presents last package of proposals for amendments to the State Budget for 2026

7 November 2025

On this last day for submitting proposals for amendments to the State Budget for 2026, there is a preliminary issue that needs to be addressed, lest it be forgotten once again. The State Budget for 2026 cannot ignore the tragedy of the forest fires that ravaged the country this summer. The diagnosis has been made, and what needs to be done to prevent and combat fires has been clearly identified. This requires investment in forests that cannot continue to be postponed as it has been until now.

PCP presents 15 proposals for fiscal justice and the defence of national interests

5 November 2025

The Country has the means and resources that are essential to strengthen public services. Fiscal justice is therefore necessary to reduce taxes on low and middle incomes and micro, small and medium-sized enterprises, and tax the profits of large economic groups and multinationals. A policy is needed to tackle the scandalous favouritism shown to economic groups. In the scope of the discussion of the State Budget for 2026, the PCP today submitted 15 proposals that demonstrate that fiscal justice and combating tax evasion are possible.
