SP solidarity to Venezuelan workers
To whom it may concern,
As Socialist Party Councillor for Yarra, the home of the Spanish speaking community of Melbourne, I call on the Venezulean Government to get their Labour Minister to intervene on behalf of workers in the RACE dispute.
Here in Australia we face bosses’ attacks, backed by a right-wing capitalist government of Prime Minister John Howard. Many workers are aware that in Venezulea workers have a leftwing government that opposes neo-liberalism and attacks on unions.
We hope that these beliefs are put into action and the revolutionary government of President Chavez acts for the workers, not the bosses.
Yours in Solidarity
Stephen Jolly,
Socialist Party Councillor for Langridge Ward (Collingwood, Fitzroy, Abbotsford, Clifton Hill, Alphington and South Fairfield)
