CGT: the atmosphere is tense from the first day of the congress

“The 49.3, we don’t want it! » The least we can say is that the 53^e CGT congress, which is being held in Clermont-Ferrand until Friday, got off to a flying start, with supporters of Olivier Mateu, secretary general of the Departmental Union of Bouches-du- Rhône, representing the ultras of the plant.

Sign of a certain feverishness, at the opening of the debates, the presidency of the congress had refused to widen a little the composition of the mandates and votes commission, the body which deals with verifying the validity of the ballots. This is what caused the happening… And the first vote of the congress.
