PES Secretary General Urges Withdrawal Of Labor Package

Radio Observador Lisbon 17d11d Impact 5

During a parade in Lisbon on April 25, various political leaders from the left expressed criticism regarding a new labor package. Environmental advocates are criticizing the planting of eucalyptus trees, arguing that it harms soil and is driven by greed for quick financial gain. They believe this practice endangers future generations and promotes the spread of forest fires. José Luis Carneiro published an opinion piece in Jornal de Público on May 1st calling on Prime Minister Luís Montenegro to withdraw the proposed labor law counter-reform. The Socialist Party's National Political Commission also criticized Montenegro, claiming he is disconnected from reality. The PS party argued that the Prime Minister has already admitted the country does not require the labor registration changes mentioned earlier this week.
