Tomorrow the crucial court for our struggle.
Tuesday 8th July, everybody in Thessaloniki’s Courthouse
Tomorrow morning, on Tuesday 8th July at
09:00, let us all be in Thessaloniki’s Courthouse, to defend the promising
project of VIOME workers.
• We
will not allow the acceptance of the ex-administration request, who is aiming
to return to the administration of the factory.
• We will not leave VIOME to be led to
bankruptcy, which would lead to the evacuation of the factory, the dismissal of
the workers without compensation and the cancelling of their requests.
•
Let the machinations of the family Filippou collapse – The Filipou Family has
been sentenced to more than ten years in prison, and yet, they are still not
serving the sentence.
• The factories to the workers, the
production to those who produce wealth, the debts to the bosses who created
them.
For almost three years now, the workers of
VIOME, have been giving an uncommon and continuous struggle. It is a struggle
for survival for them and their families. It is also a struggle that opens the
way for the self-management of the workers, for a society with equality and
freedom, without poverty, unemployment and wretchedness. It is a struggle that
has the following motto on its flags: “Worker, you can make it without any
bosses, the gear cannot turn without you”.
Thousands of people in solidarity, unemployed,
workers, trade unions in the field of industry, commerce, services and
agriculture, organizations, community clinics and solidarity networks,
individuals but also collectives from all the spectrum of social life, locals,
immigrants, in Greece but also from all over the world, all these years have
helped and supported our struggle.
Let them all understand it, all those
people who seek a grip on the factory, who are trying to come back to the factory
in order to finish the speculative desertion/dissolution they started two years
ago, all those who are afraid of the expansion of the example of VIOME: The
crack this struggle opened will not close. The self-management of the workers
in VIOME is here to stay. Viome will stay in the workers’ hands.
Tomorrow on Tuesday 8/7, from 9 o’clock in
the morning, we will all be at the Courthouse of Thessaloniki, to give our
answer.
