(en) UCL - A thought for the locked out! (fr)

 [machine translation]

We inform you of this text which reached us by email. Feel free to do the same and send us 
your news and opinion letters. ---- Toulouse, France: University Jean Jaur?s / Le Mirail 
blocked and occupied. ---- With winter is upon us, a thought comes to es locked out of car 
dealers in the region. For almost two years, these men and women are dragged through the 
mud by corrupt bosses, vendors and radio garbage workers. Union shelter destroyed with an 
ax, locked out hit by a car, identity theft locked out-es, attempted to break the union, 
insults, harassment and provocation to fight on the picket lines, dangerous and 
threatening behavior attend to family events, instrumentalization (a hardly conceivable 
point) of the police and the judiciary, maneuvers to circumvent the anti-scab legislation, 
and so on. In short, they do they learn the hard class struggle. The bosses think about 
money and sellers make lackey lichant ass worshiped their bosses. On the other hand, are 
locked out, are fighting to keep decent working conditions. They they want nothing more 
than to keep their gains.

Barring a miracle, they will they spend a second winter on the sidewalk. The bosses are 
doing everything in their power to negotiate and not the union remains in prison legality. 
March 2015 will mark the second year of this conflict and CSD (1) has not increased the 
pressure tactics. We have to wait ... but wait what? If only locked out-es had such a 
courageous union they, them. Hopefully justice gives reason to the locked out-es is to 
believe that one can learn to play the flute at a seal. We must dare, block, bother! 
Unfortunately, the trend of the CSD is much to fear and weakness. After some events, 
parades, nothing. For part of the population, locked out-es are now part of the urban 
landscape. Obviously, asking people to delay their vehicle purchase is not working. The 
pressure means can not be limited to this. This is not enough. Especially that the dealers 
had anticipated this lockout by collecting money in a fund dedicated to overcome the 
monetary losses during the labor dispute. Still, the lockout-e-es continue to believe in a 
positive outcome. It is to their credit. I will end with the slogan: '' The citizens do 
not understand that language. It is striking, blocking and sabotage ! '

Solidarity! Camillo Berneri , always with you.
