The National High Court has declared this practice null and void and orders the company to cease carrying it out "immediately".</p>]]></description>

In fact, social workers will maintain their strike for June 9 and 10, coinciding with the pontiff's presence. This Friday, in an extraordinary plenary session requested by the Junts, Comuns, and ERC groups, Jaume Collboni's government has been left alone with Vox against opening a dialogue space with the three minority unions –CGT, Intersindical, and ABACOS, with only 3 out of the 15 members of the negotiation table–, who have called for 30 days of partial stoppages in basic social services, gender-based violence, childhood, libraries, nursery schools, social emergencies, or citizen attention.<a href="https://en.ara.cat/society/strike-at-barcelona-social-services-we-cannot-serve-citizens-in-full-conditions_1_5714392.html" >partial stoppages in basic social services</a>, gender-based violence, childhood, libraries, nursery schools, social emergencies, or citizen attention.</p>]]></description>
