At midnight the five days of strike by Italian hauliers expire, even if many trucks have already resumed work. However, this will only be a truce: the Trasportounito trade union has in fact declared that "faced with the attitude of the Government which has not opened any serious dialogue with the category", On Monday 6 February, the shutdown of transport companies using car transporters was confirmed, or hauliers engaged in the transport of cars.
But that is not all: hauliers have already announced another five-day nationwide strike in March. “We have provided all the principals of the hauliers – he said Maurizio Longo, secretary general of Trasportounito – the indication for a resumption of work.
But the total detachment from reality, once again highlighted by the behavior of the institutions, will force us once again to take to the streets: under arrest, there are no alternatives other than real intervention in the sector that makes effective those legal provisions that have remained until now a dead letter.
We are also willing to make a barter: the State keeps the economic resources destined for the sector, but gives us the rules with which we can work in total safety and not be strangled by the client".
