Transport Minister Matteo Salvini
said Tueday he would act if the November 29 general strike is a
wildcat action and does not foresee guaranteed bands for
commuters on buses, trams and the underground, with the railways
having been spared by two of Italy's big three unions.
"If the wildcat strike returns, as it was the last time, without
the guarantee bands and that ruin the day of millions of
Italians, taking away the right to health, work, study, I will
intervene directly as the law allows me to do", said the Deputy
Prime Minister and Minister of Transport and Infrastructure.
"They have removed the railways and it is already a step
forward", added the right-wing League party leader.
Italy's biggest union CGIL and its third biggest UIL have called
the strike against the 2025 budget bill.
The third major union, CISL, has not.
