They urge the Ministry of Security to ensure that “thousands of comrades take to the streets to demand what we think is fair”, not to get in each other’s way. He has also denounced a very strong media campaign against the ertzainas, “reaching limits that we have never seen before”.
The ertzinas They complain that they still haven’t received a call from the Security Department of the Basque Government negotiate the renewal of the agreement. For example, they have announced that they will hold another protest in the capital of Biscay this Thursday afternoon, during the presentation of the Tour teams in Bilbao.
Several hundred ertzainas have been mobilized again today Vitoria-Gasteiz, with a demonstration from the headquarters of the Basque Parliament to the Lehendakaritza, where the Council of the Basque Government was held. The march has closed tram traffic again. The agents have responded to the joint appeal of the trade unions ErNE, Esan, Euspel and Sipe and the collective ‘Ertzainas en lucha’.
Last Friday was a short and unsuccessful one negotiating table meeting of the working conditions in the Ertzaintza, in which the unions rose from the meeting because they believed that there was no decent offer, and the two sides exchanged accusations. Since then, there have been no calls from the Basque government to the trade unions, as explained on Tuesday by ErNE’s general secretary, Sergio Gomez de Segura.
“We have the hope that they will call us, but to this day it has not come. Here I have activated the phone, so if they call now it is better than later. I also say that for the too considering circumstances have no phone neither from the adviser nor from the 2 deputy ministries. That’s the respect they give us saying they want to sit down to negotiate but not a single call,” he summarized.
The union representative does not want to comment on whether the Tour celebration is endangered by the ertzainas’ protests: “We don’t want to put ourselves in that situation. After years of austerity, I think there is an agreement.” In this sense, he has urged the Ministry of Security to ensure that “thousands of colleagues take to the streets to demand what we think is fair”, not to get in each other’s way. He has also denounced ashes media campaign very strong against the ertzainas, “reaching limits we had never seen before”.
