The Move­ment for So­cial Jus­tice (MSJ) marked Labour Day by call­ing for peace, uni­ty, and re­newed strug­gle. The par­ty de­scribed the last decade un­der the for­mer PNM gov­ern­ment as “a vi­cious at­tack” on labour, cit­ing mass re­trench­ments at Petrotrin, TSTT, UTT, and TID­CO, along with de­layed wage ne­go­ti­a­tions.

Po­lit­i­cal Leader David Ab­du­lah said the April 28 gen­er­al elec­tion gave the work­ing class a vi­tal vic­to­ry, ush­er­ing trade union­ists in­to Par­lia­ment, one of whom now sits in Cab­i­net.

“This space presents a ma­jor op­por­tu­ni­ty: to en­gage in ad­vo­ca­cy, sup­port­ed by the trade union reps in gov­ern­ment… and raise con­scious­ness,” it said.
