La grève à la SNCF, qui débute ce mercredi 11 décembre, 19 heures, entraînera des perturbations ces prochaines heures. La journée de jeudi sera chargée sur le plan social avec une mobilisation devant Solvay à Salindres.

Political instability, after the motion of censure and the resignation of the Barnier government, has added a little more social anger at the end of the year. In the Gard, this Thursday, December 12, at 3 p.m., it will take the form of a rally in front of the Solvay factory in Salindres, which is closing with 68 job losses. Buses will leave from Nîmes, Pont Saint-Esprit and Bagnols-sur-Cèze at the initiative of the CGT.

The union will use this day to make its demands heard: a plan for the reindustrialization of the territories with the transport of raw materials and production by train, a demand on companies that have received public aid and the return to the obligation of administrative request for layoffs. The CGT recalls that fewer industrial jobs also mean losses in public services and services.
