Speaking at the meeting were national leaders of political parties (among others the LCR, the Communist Party, the Greens and Lutte Ouvriere), trade unions (the CGT and SUD energy workers’ federations) and unemployed and tenants’ organisations. November 19th is shaping up to be the biggest trade union mobilization since the October 4th day of action. The demonstration is being supported by local councils, elected representatives and political organisations.
