The historic leader of the ANSES union called for a strike and deactivated it due to a lack of membership

Leonard Fabre He has been Secretary General of the Staff Association of Social Protection Organizations (Apops) since 1997. It is one of the most representative unions of ANSES, which has affiliates between the ATE State and the UPCN. Fabre had one of his worst days yesterday in his 24 years as head of the union. Called a strike in rejection of management in the body of Fernanda Raverta, But should have turned it off due to lack of grip. The curious thing is that he himself recognized his loss of influence, with a message on social networks.

“The limited combat capacity of the pension bases is a clear indicator of resignation in the face of the onslaught of this administration. We are lifting the strike because of the exhaustion of the measure, ”the union reported yesterday in a statement. The truth is, Fabre is facing an internal crisis at Apops, as some of his board colleagues disagree with his rejection of the government, according to the site. www.infogremialies.com.

Fabre was an old ally of Hugo Moyano in the 90s and in the 12 years when the chief truck driver was in charge of the CGT. Today, however, he is a union leader with his own stamp, capable of rejecting Moyano as well as Héctor Daer, a benchmark in the “los Gordos” sector (large service unions).

Verbulous and accustomed to sharp messages, Fabre has gained more importance in his silence than in his rhetorical battles. It often takes on a certain relevance compared to the messages that sometimes cover the streets of Buenos Aires and bear the Apops signature.

Some emblematic posters: “Peronism or La Cámpora”, launched a few days ago by the trade unionist, who supported the presidential candidacy of Guillermo Moreno and who is also related as a man close to Beloved Boudou.

There were other messages, with the internal union in the background. “No to the agreement with the IMF. The CGT of treason ”, read the posters which covered the surroundings of the Empire theater, when in 2018 the triumvirate of command advanced in a strike against the direction of Mauricio Macri.
