Trains cancelled, flights halted and schools closed after unions launched Portugal’s first general strike in more than a decade.⁣ ⁣ The strike was called in response to proposed labour reforms that would amend more than 100 articles of labour code. ⁣ ⁣ The government has said it would boost productivity and help boost economic growth but unions say the changes would give employers more power and impact workers’rights.⁣ ⁣ The bill has not yet been submitted to parliament, but it is expected to pass with support from the far-right Chega party.⁣ ⁣ #portugal #protest #strike #labourrights
