General Strike

Different workers unions and social organizations have decided to call a general strike the next 30 of May. According to them, the new laws and reforms of different governments are creating unemployment, giving power/money to rich and impoverishing people. Besides, they destroy public services and people's social rights. That reforms are being imposed "undemocratically".

"For that reasons, we ask a radical change on public policy priorities". "We ask to the institutions (basque institutions) to not apply state imposed measures". 

They have also asked universal public services, decent employment, social services etc. They are writting a document called "Letter of Social Rights of Basque Country".
