The economic crisis that has been engulfing Greece over the last four years has reached another turning point this Sunday the 5th of July with a referendum over whether to accept more austerity measures. Workers and their communities have been progressively impoverished in the last four years via cuts to wages and jobs. A solidarity message by a number of regional labour organisations has been published in support of the fight against austerity. A ‘No’ vote is seen as crucial for workers and their living standards. Regardless of the outcome of Sunday’s referendum, the situation for workers will remain grave unless they are able to organise and take greater control of their workplaces.
