The unions are now pressing for serious talks with the government so that pension reforms and other austerity measures can be modified.

Marc Leemans of the Christian union: “We are striking where possible and staging actions where necessary. This morning I visited picketers in scores of places. Our people are determined.”

“They clearly see where the challenges lie and they refuse to accept that it’s especially employees who have to foot the bill for measures to get us out of the crisis. Other income groups are not affected! That’s the signal from working people today.”

The unions are now anticipating an invitation from the government to come and discuss pension reforms and other austerity measures.

Rudy De Leeuw of the socialist union: “I expect a clear signal from Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo.” Mr De Leeuw’s union intends to evaluate the situation again at the middle of next month.
