Solidarity with workers

I don’t know what have happened but I’m waiting for someone to wake me up. It seems that the government is doing everything possible to go against what he had promised. Amazingly enough all he’s doing is against the working class, wonder why!!
I think that at this stage is not about being Socialist or not, it’s about being a human being with a conscious or without. I don’t know how our dear prim minister can sleep knowing that hundreds of workers will be unemployed in few more weeks, knowing that few months ago he promised a different promise. Some other workers are arguing that they were sent off home from work without any compensation but this is not the case, anyway we have to find a form of solidarity between workers although with our new capitalist system everyone forgot such important value as solidarity.
My father doesn’t work at the Malta shipyard and no one in my family work there but I wish to send my solidarity with the workers. I send my solidarity because if someday this government will attack me and my job I wish that other workers show solidarity and support. The people united will never get defeated and if there will be the need to go in the streets we will go, together as one we will win.
