A-Infos (en) France, Tract UCL, An emergency plan for all public services in 93 (ca, de, fr, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

In 1998, a vast protest movement involving parents, teachers and 
students won an emergency plan. Twenty-five years later, 
Seine-Saint-Denis remains one of the most under-equipped departments in 
relation to its population. Let's not let this happen, let's demand our 
rights! ---- In 1998 teachers and parents but also many high school 
students from Seine-Saint-Denis led three months of mobilizations and 
strikes under the slogan: "We want means, we are not less than nothing" 
. The result was extraordinary: 3,000 teacher hires and 5,000 "youth 
jobs", creation of specific standards on class numbers and for the 
schools most in difficulty, 5 billion granted for the renovation of 
buildings...

The fight was led by a "Coordination of establishments on strike" which 
functioned in a general assembly in the presence of teacher union 
leaders and parents of FCPE students. The current movement can produce 
identical results!

But the State and successive governments have not only allowed the 
school in our department to deteriorate. The entire health system is 
dilapidated: hospitals, nursing homes, mental health, municipal health 
centers... Thousands of professionals and dozens of reception facilities 
are missing.

In public transport we suffer daily from dilapidated networks and 
unsuitable timetables. The work that drags on to open new lines creates 
incomprehensible difficulties and, with the population densification 
desired by local authorities and real estate developers, we already know 
that they will be insufficient when they are put into service.

Finally, in housing, the scam of urban renovation plans is now before 
everyone's eyes: massive destruction of social housing, construction of 
already degraded condominiums and delusional densification by eating 
away at the few green spaces which were nevertheless our only hopes for 
fight against global warming and urban heatwaves.

We refuse to live in a giant ghetto. We want reindustrialization for 
real jobs and real salaries: enough precariousness and cheap jobs. We 
want the reconstruction of local agricultural areas rather than new hard 
discount chains that sell us industrial foods imported from all over the 
planet.

General mobilization!
