LISBON ERUPTS: Portugal On Edge As Unions Declare “war” On Labour Reforms | Times Now World

Video Description

Thousands of workers marched through Lisbon on Saturday to protest Prime Minister Luis Montenegro’s proposed labour reforms, accusing the government of weakening worker protections and worsening job insecurity. Demonstrators carried banners and chanted slogans as unions warned that the draft bill—allowing dismissals without cause and easing outsourcing rules—would erode labour rights. The protests also targeted plans to amend Portugal’s strike laws, a move critics say threatens constitutional freedoms. The widespread unrest underscores mounting tensions between the country’s centre-right minority government and its workforce, raising fears of escalating strikes in the coming weeks. #portugal, #lisbonprotest, #labourreforms, #workersrights, #montenegro, #unionprotest, #jobinsecurity, #portugalnews, #labourlaw, #europeanprotests, #strike, #workersunite, #politics, #breakingnews, #eu #tnworld #timesnowworld #worldnews #internationalnews #timesnews #newsworld ​Subscribe now: http://bit.ly/3VHIl37 Times Now World is your definitive source for comprehensive global news and analysis.
