The harassment of pensioners continues. In three years, the maneuver subtracts 2.5 billion euros from
pockets of pensioners by intervening again on the adjustment of pensions to inflation, making
once again "cash" on the purchasing power of pensions of those who have regularly paid contributions for
40 years and over!!
A large delegation of pensioners from Ferrara will participate tomorrow, December 28, in Bologna, in the initiative
public meeting called by Spi-Cgil, Fnp-Cisl and Uilp-Uil to protest against cuts to pension revaluation
and the lack of effective support measures for the social security, healthcare and welfare systems and interventions for
Tax equity and economic development in the budget law passed by the Lega-Movimento 5 stelle government
for 2019.
The demonstration will begin at 10.30 in Piazza del Nettuno and will end with a demonstration in front of the
Bologna Prefecture in Piazza Roosevelt; a letter will be delivered to the prefect Patrizia Impresa
addressed to the Prime Minister, Conte.
“We consider unacceptable,” affirm the three trade union organizations, “this method of government which places
hands in the pockets of pensioners, feeding the ranks of the new poor. We ask for the opening
of a comparison starting from the proposals of Cgil, Cisl and Uil on healthcare, non self-sufficiency, social security and taxation
for Italian workers and pensioners, the most taxed in Europe”.
