Against the reform by the time-unlimited general strike!!
(Part of leaflet created by CZECHOSLOVAKIAN ANARCHIST FEDERATION, on the occasion of strike, declared by the most of the
czech main labour unions against the government reforms)
NOTE: The government reforms in Czech republic are hand in hand with orders and
recommendations of monetary institutions and OECD..For common peolple it means
another enormous increase of their expenses.. The worst measures are for example
: food consumer tax increase, introducing charges at doctor(everybody,even small
children and pensioners, now have to pay during the visit of their doctor),
raising the limit for retirement, decrease of parental allowances....

Donīt let ourselves to be separated, donīt forget that our strength is in our
unity and solidarity.
It is fool to trust in political parties or supreme labour union leaders. Donīt
let them abuse us for their political or power ambition. Trust ourselves and our
colleagues!
As the anarchists, we don't think that reforms can be stopped just by one-hour
or one day-long strike indeed.
The only way out, the only method, how to beat down the government and stop
reforms, is time-unlimited general strike, which would be stopped only at that
time, when government will withdraw and abolish their asocial reformative plans
and measures.
There are a lot of ways, how to join..
If you canīt stop or quit your job or study for any reason, express your
solidarity with the striking people, for example during your journey to work, or
by hanging out the banner I support the demands of the striking in your
workplace or window.
If you are unemployed, for example you can occupy and block the building of
Bureau of labour.
Extend the ideas of self-organization, direct action and time-unlimited general
strike.
Create your own posters, stickers, leaflets, streetart stencils and set out to
the streets. There are offices of political parties in every bigger city. The
forms of protest are various : symbolic lockout of these offices, blocades,
verbal confrontation of the politicians, flying rotten fruit or sprayed walls of
their offices..
The struggle doesnīt end with one strike
Reformistic labour unions have no will to stop the recent government reforms.It
is not possible to be responsible part of the capitalist system and at the same
time defend the interests of the workpeople.
History of social struggles have clearly shown us that negotiations with
those,who have the power, is simply pointless.The government will withdraw and
annul reformative plans only at that time, when the time-unlimited general
strike will take place. The strike, which will threaten profits of the lobbystic
groups of employers. In fact, especially these groups have the eminent concern
over realization of these reforms promoted by the government. At the same time,
we will see what the labour unions seek to do to defend the interests of the
working people, or to maintain their soft jobs..
