Labor groups, base unions and workers’ committees of Thessaloniki, we all take the initiative to create a fund for the support of workers’ struggles and activists, as well as a coordination for actions. Commonplace to those involved is anti-hierarchical function and class consciousness.
Due to the apparent lack of trade union structures in our workplaces, to the sellout of GSEE’s (Greek General Confederation of Workers) bureaucratic leadership and the syndicalism that is identified with petty-type politics of political parties like PAME (Greek Communist Party), there is a huge gap in the workers’ demands against the patrons and the employers. This gap we aim to overcome with the establishment of the Coordination Assembly, as a means to approach workers and unite with them through Base Syndicalism. What is more, it is through the Fund that we want to focus on the financial support of the workers’ struggles, while through the Coordination Assembly we want to construct a network that would acquire the class reflexes to create and promote workers’ struggles. It is in these struggles that we propose and defend collegial solidarity, base and bottom-up organization through the general assembly and direct action against any employer arbitrariness.
