National Women's Demonstration organized by the Democratic Women's Movement (MDM), 2025

The struggle of women, yesterday and today, built a fairer future!

8 March 2025

Thousands of women took to the streets on International Women's Day. In a great show of strength, organized by the Women's Democratic Movement, they demonstrated for rights, equality and an end to violence. PCP joined this struggle, alongside the working women, in defense of a fair and democratic society. Equality is an essential pillar. Women's struggle, yesterday and today, builds a future free from discrimination. There are still obstacles, but the courage and strength demonstrated inspire confidence that a fairer future is possible.

Immediate end to massacres against the people in Syria

10 March 2025

The PCP strongly condemns the massacres and all kinds of crimes perpetrated against the people of Syria by armed terrorist groups, which seized power in the country on December 8. The violent action carried out by these groups, which include thousands of foreign mercenaries, targets ethnic and religious minorities, including the Alawite and Christian populations, as well as the political and social forces that fight for a sovereign, democratic and secular Syrian Arab Republic.

Peace cannot be achieved with more arms, more war

7 March 2025

The Special meeting of the European Council of 6 March confirms the European Union's (EU) warmongering course, committing itself to continuing the war in Ukraine, encouraging the escalation of arms, continuing to hinder peace and collective security in Europe and failing to respond to the pressing problems affecting the workers and people.

New Public-Private Partnerships in healthcare, a new boost for the business of disease

7 March 2025

The PSD/CDS government's decision on new Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) is a new and serious step in the strategy to attack and destroy the NHS. An unacceptable decision that undermines the rights of the population in their access to healthcare and threatens the rights and working conditions of professionals. A decision that jeopardises the public interest and creates greater instability in the management of NHS units, in addition to the marked lack of human and financial resources and the wave of resignations and replacements of boards of directors.

Respect for women's rights and equality are a prerequisite for a democratic society

7 March 2025

On the eve of International Women's Day, I would like to address a greeting to women, working women, working class women, intellectuals, all women, mothers, grandmothers, women who struggle every day for a better life and the implementation of their rights. History shows us that women are not passive subjects. They were and are the protagonists of many, many struggles for rights, equality and emancipation.

This is not the time for calculations, it is the time to stop the government and its policies

5 March 2025

Mr Chairman, Mr Prime Minister, Members of Parliament, With the authority and coherence of those who, from the outset, did not harbour expectations, denounced and fought the government's actions and refused any complicity with its decisions, including the State Budget, the PCP is here today presenting a motion of censure with the clear aim of defeating the government and its policies.

PCP tables motion of censure against the government and its policies

1 March 2025

Stop the deterioration of the national situation, for an alternative policy of progress and development 1. The announcement that the Prime Minister decided to make today, apart from a singular propaganda stunt, not only does not add anything to dispel or remedy the facts that remain unclear, but it also reaffirms the government's intention to pursue its agenda at the service of big capital, to attack public rights and services, to worsen exploitation and injustice.

This government is not in a position to solve the problems and is today the main factor for discrediting political life, and has to draw consequences

28 February 2025

A year after this government took office, what we are witnessing proves exactly what the PCP said a year ago, that this is a government at the service of the economic groups; a government that encourages promiscuity between the economic groups and the interests of the State; a government that encourages all this promiscuity and promotes a real conflict of interests between the economic groups and the interests of those who can't access the National Health Service, those who have difficulty accessing housing; those who have salaries that are too short for the long month they have to face
