He announces that transporters will also join this mobilization, among them, 50,000 people, according to the platform.
Platform 6-F has called on farmers and ranchers to enter Madrid with tractors this Saturday, February 10, in order to reach the PSOE headquarters in Ferraz, where transporters will also be present, as announced this Wednesday.
The organization, which today presented its calendar of protests, has stressed that the mobilizations of farmers and transporters will begin with Madrid. “On the 10th, transport joins to enter Madrid and the transporters are going to paralyze the markets, with an attempt to reach Ferraz,” said Xaime da Pena Gutiérrez, the legal manager of Platform 6-F.
Specifically, this platform has clarified that they have assured the presence of 5,000 truck drivers from Madrid, while it has estimated that 50,000 people will gather, of which approximately 15,000 will be ranchers and farmers, and more than 20,000 will be transporters.
“The second day of mobilizations has been a success, although the movement has relaxed,” explained Da Pena, who detailed that “many truck drivers” in Madrid have been sanctioned.
In this context, the 6-F Platform has assured that on the 10th the transporters will begin the mobilization with an “indefinite nature” in Madrid, while insisting that they do not depend on any ideology, since “here there are not even unions , nor political parties”.
