To: CSP-Conlutas – Secretariat
This Trades Council wants to send its solidarity to the Brazilian working class.
Having read your letter “On the Eve of the World Cup. A Wave of Strikes Shake Brazil” We want to express our support to all the strikes and social struggle activities that are taking place in May and June.
We support all your struggles for a better life for housing, decent employment with decent contracts and wages.
In particular we support the feeling of millions of people against the big business of the World Cup and that is making millions for Fifa and the multi-nationals and used money that should be spent on health, education and transport.
FIFA’s World Cup contributes to the violation of human rights, the right to adequate housing, the right to free movement, the right to work and the right to protest. Forced evictions have occurred all over Brazil in the wake of the Cup and have left many homeless and destitute.
We therefore wish you every success in your struggles against Fifa, the national, State and local governments of Brazil and the multi-nationals.
End the criminalisation of the Brazilian and British struggles!
Long live the workers struggles in Brazil and Britain!
Long live the International Solidarity of the working class!
