Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni at Portovesme srl for May 1st Labor Day . The invitation comes from the secretary of the CGIL Sardinia Fausto Durante, on the occasion of the regional assembly of metalworkers: «Rather than meeting the Council of Ministers», said the secretary, «he could do something certainly more useful , that is to come to the foundry of San Gavino".
In fact, there is an initiative by the CGIL on the program to talk about work and industry. «The company», added Durante, «is the only one of national strategic interest in the sector . If Meloni were to come, he would realize the existence of a community that has made the work in that factory, the activities in the non-ferrous metal sector, not just an element of development and progress for a territory, but an industrial reality that goes absolutely protected and safeguarded, as well as relaunched ».
Also present at the meeting was the general secretary of Fiom Michele De Palma, who reiterated the centrality of Portovesme for the country: «It is unthinkable», he declared, «that those productions, also due to the ever-increasing demand, cease to exist. The restart of the plants is the condition for talking about the future . Without restarting the plants, we are talking about decommissioning and not transition".
De Palma dwells on the contingent situation but not only, outlining the way for the future: «We need to start again from the occupation that already exists in order to organize the transition. And in order to govern it», he reiterates, «it is necessary to confirm the existing plants , but also aiming at new investments for new productions. There are objectives of an ecological nature which make it possible to create new jobs. Photovoltaic panels and wind turbines, for example, need workers for their production, but I am also thinking of the production of batteries».
