Tanned and relaxed, but more determined than ever to resume the fight against the labor law, that fight from the start. “A bad law in the spring always is in the autumn,” he insisted, asking simply its “abrogation”.

While Manuel Valls said the decrees Application would rather taken “as soon as possible”, the boss of the CGT took the opportunity to denounce once again the forced passage of the government. “The law was enacted in the middle of summer, without ever having been passed,” said he reminded

As announced before the summer, the CGT therefore calls -. With six other organizations (FO , FSU, Solidaires, UNEF, UNL, LDIFs) – to a day of mobilization from September 15th. The Inter will meet Wednesday night to decide how to share, but the goal is to launch a call to strike and demonstrate.
