PSP police and GNR soldiers protest in Lisbon
The ASPP and APG are organizing a protest in Lisbon to demand salary increases and better working conditions for police and GNR members. The demonstration, starting at 5:30 PM, aims to pressure the government to fulfill promises made in a 2024 agreement. Union leaders express frustration over the lack of concrete proposals from the government during ongoing negotiations. They highlight the financial struggles faced by security forces due to outdated remuneration statutes. The protest will conclude near the Prime Minister's residence, emphasizing accountability for the government's inaction. Despite concerns over recent police interventions in housing protests, the unions remain focused on their specific demands.
