CGT Labour Confederation boss Hugo Moyano, ratified this morning he is not quitting on his reelection hopes, and promised that once reelected “I’ll approach the national government with some serious and firm complaints.”
Likewise, the former lorry driver indicated that his new umbrella union faction, which will be known as CGT de los Trabajadores, “will count with a new executive council, to be named within the next days, that will bring a list of complaints to the national government.”
During a radio interview, Moyano did not want to reveal if the new wave of protest will also include a national strike, but remembered that “If Néstor Kirchner would still be around us, we would’ve never witness such a CGT internal fracture.”
Likewise, the unionist said that in case of having a meeting with the President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, he would ask her “to rethink several matters, and try to see that there are many things that are not being done the right way.”
Asked about the current CGT factions that emerged as a result of the internal fight for power, Moyano said: “It’s not a big deal, it’s historical. There’s always been two or three CGT factions.”
Echoing Senator Aníbal Fernández attacking words –called Moyano a transvestite for his constant changing attitudes- Moyano replied with heavy ammunition:
“He’s a poor guy that talks rubbish and nonsense the whole day. Is he the one now talking about being an oligarch against a popular government? Come on. He’s the one that worn every government’s jersey for the past decades.”
“He is a sinister character in politics with a true vocation for bootlicking and telling gossips.”
