Version imprimableWe haven’t bowed our heads in submission. Since 17th September we have been in the streets every day, claiming back our jobs, claiming back our lives.
The Government is trying to suppress our just fight in any way it can. Pictures of defenseless 50 or 60-year-old women beaten up by riot police have spread around the world. Lots of us were taken to hospital after the barbarous and unjustifiable police attacks against us.
We have opted for dignity. Ten months of struggle, ten months of poverty and problems ! But we haven’t given up. We continue our struggle. We claim the self-evident : our right to life.
A surge of support is spreading in society. Workers, redundant workers, unemployed people, students, pensioners, artists, they all express their support.
Greek justice has vindicated us, but the Government refuses to comply with the court decision. It wants revenge on us because we are fighting. It wants revenge on us because we have opted for dignity.
Solidarity is people’s weapon. We call on you to express your solidarity to our struggle for life and dignity. We call on you to sign the support petition and help collect signatures, which will force the Government to execute the court decision – something that will cost nothing to the Greek state.
Together we can stop these barbarous policies.
