Social security will be saved by work, not by strikes

13/02/2025
In brief

On 13 February 2025, the MR condemned a national strike day it considers “absurd” at a time when the economy needs to be revived. According to the party, the Arizona Government wants to “put Belgium back to work” and social security will be saved by employment, not by strikes. The MR claims to be “the only party that truly defends workers” in the face of trade union blockades.

This Thursday, 13 February, our country was paralysed by strikes orchestrated by the trade unions. A regrettable choice at a time when our economy needs to be supported, not weakened.

While the Arizona Government wants to put Belgium back to work, the trade unions prefer to block everything. But who really suffers? The workers who want to move forward, the self-employed who fight daily, and the businesses that create jobs.

The MR President spoke out in the media and in the Chamber to remind everyone that paralysing the country is absurd at a time when the economy needs to be revived!

The MR is the only party that truly defends workers.
