The second deputy prime minister of the Government and minister of Labour and Social Economy, Yolanda Díaz, has assessed the general strike of this 11 November as "it has been a success" and has stressed that, in her view, citizens have demanded "stop and clear" to end "the great factory of inequality that is speculation."
In a message shared on the social network 'Bluesky' and picked up by Europa Press, the head of Labour insisted that "The streets have spoken loud and clear: we must put an end to the great factory of inequality that is speculation," highlighting the strength of the mobilizations.
The minister also conveyed her recognition to the organizations that called the protests, including class unions and housing groups, and she expressed her thanks to society as a whole that has been involved in organizing and participating in the strike day.
In the final part of her message, the deputy prime minister wanted to emphasize the political meaning of the protest and closed her remarks with the phrase "When our country stops, it is always to move forward."
