Merlon: the initiative of Trasportounito is "a ham-handed action of piracy"



The president of the Harbour Authority of Genoa, Luigi Merlo, has not gone for the thin one commenting this that has happened today to crosses of the port of the capital of Liguria in before the five days of arrest warrant of the road haulage indetto from Trasportounito.

"That put in field to Genoa today from Trasportounito - it has accused Merlon - is not a national strike, but a ham-handed action of piracy with a evident violation of law that must be endorsed in exemplary way. Probably worried that strike would have been a flop - he has explained - some associates have before obstructed some cross, then slowed down the circulation blocking many colleagues and the operativity of the port of call".

"No motivation cannot exist - it has still denounced Merlon - that justifies such a sopraffazione. I feel myself betrayed from Trasportunito being it are one of the little ports that in these years has tried to construct a conversing relationship and collaborativo that for me from today is interrupted. I consider just to defense of the port, its many companies and its many workers - it has continued the president of the Harbour Authority - to verify the conditions in order to introduce formal denunciation to the competent authorities and contextually to start the procedure of class action towards the single responsibles and the Trasportounito association asking the reimbursement for the brought damages all the harbour field".

"The articles appeared on print today - it has concluded Merlon - demonstrate a premeditation by the association that, with some declarations, has disincentivato today the arrival of many conveyors, and this are not tolerable. I consider also that for coherence the general secretary of Trasportounito Maurizio Longo would have to discharge himself quickly from the Harbour Committee of Genoa, in that appointed place to make the total interests of the port of Genoa cannot in fact sit who concurs to determine situations as these".

From part its Trasportounito has announced that the protest of the autotrasportosi is being increased like wildfire on all the national territory. "This - it has specified the association - is provoking in some between the more important strategic nodes of the transport, the logistics and the portualità, an arrest warrant or however a strong slow down of the activities, which had mainly to the fact that the road haulage enterprises have joined to the arrest warrant and have held the Tir in warehouse. Activities of garrison in many ports happen and to interpose to you in Liguria, Puglia and Calabria, and to interpose to you in Piemonte, Lombardy, Umbria and Veneto, while in the afternoon other territorial initiatives are previewed that they will join to those in course".

The national secretariat of Trasportounito has moreover restated that "the manifestations, in spite of the state of tension that characterizes the category to taken with the dramatic problems of survival and in spite of the increasing pressure put into effect from the police authorities on single haulers, are being carried out everywhere correctly and pacifically, compying with the invitation not to carry out street blocks".
