Maurizio Landini, the leader of leftwing metalworkers union FIOM, on Friday warned Premier Matteo Renzi that he cannot revamp Italy all on his own. "Renzi cannot make decisions from morning until night. He cannot change the country on his own," Landini told a Naples rally accompanying a one-day strike his union has called in parts of Italy. "On his own he just responds to the powers that be". Landini has been leading protests against the government's Jobs Act labour reform and other policies.
The FIOM is part of Italy's biggest trade-union confederation, the CGIL, which has called a general strike to protest against the Jobs Act and the government's 2015 budget law on December 12 along with another big union, the UIL.
