(en) France, Alternative Libertaire AL #231 - Brief -- Virgin: 15 million for red vests (fr)

The fight to Virgin (see AL February and June 2013) ended with a semi-victory on June 20, 
the day of the signing of the "end of conflict". According to the claim of the Inter, ? 15 
million were allocated to 'social' against eight initially planned. It is the occupation 
of eight stores for ten days by employee-'re fighting that has made ??this issue. The 
links forged during the struggle must continue through a combination of ex-employee-es. 
The "red vests" and CGT and SUD launch a process of reflection and coordination within the 
industry so that other Virgin recurrence. ---- Invalidated Paris 7 PPP ---- Two judgments 
dated July 2 canceled the permission granted to the Vinci group for university buildings 
in Paris 7 (see AL July-August 2013).

Built under a public-private partnership (PPP) and has many defects, these buildings had 
met strong opposition from unions and self-es. A blow to the PPP siphon public money to 
fatten large private companies.

Pilpa not stack
After a year of struggle, the employee-es of the factory ice Carcassonnaise Pilpa signed 
an agreement with management. They and they get favorable starting conditions (between 14 
and 34 months of benefits), and the possibility for 40 of them to pursue the activity in 
Scop. The agreement provides that as a framework for the formation of employee-es and the 
purchase of equipment for the conversion of the activity to the production of artisanal 
ice cream.
