SATA: No taxis today Monday (9/9) in Attica, as taxi drivers have announced a 24-hour strike.
As stated in a statement by the Attica Taxi Drivers Union (SATA), the taxi strike will begin at 5 a.m. on Monday and will last until 5 a.m. on Tuesday, September 10. According to SATA’s announcement, a general assembly for electing and accounting will take place on Monday at 11:00 a.m. at the Exhibition Center in Peristeri.
The announcement from SATA:
“Dear colleague,
Your taxi, our taxi, is in danger.
A series of government decisions and significant legislative omissions clearly show the guidelines.
▪ The new tax law leads us with mathematical precision to unprofitable work and economic destruction.
▪ The insurance system tightens the noose even more around our necks.
▪ Unfair competition from private cars, multinational apps, and PIRACY steals our most quality transport work every day with the state’s tolerance.
And instead of the Ministry providing solutions, Ms. Kefalogianni issues clarifying circulars through the Ministry of Tourism that misinterpret the law and prevent the regulatory authorities from certifying violations and imposing penalties.
▪ The government’s obsession with transitioning to electric vehicles by 2026 is the story of a foretold death for our profession.
—– ENOUGH ALREADY —-
Each one of us must step forward and fight alongside our Union, protest, and resist all that is happening for us without us!
Let’s not allow them to play with our lives.
We say no to political, business, and economic interests. For us, there is only the taxi!!!
