Belgian trade unions march against energy costs and inflation

1. The poor farmers too. This Western world is a globalist paradise and is horrific for the poor and regular folks.

2. Lol "freezing temperatures", "dying of cold" etc. It's been around 10-15 degrees for weeks :D. Ok this strike was probably in mid December, when temperatures were actually around 0 for a week or so. But isn't it a coincidence that this manages to fit Putin's narrative of Europeans freezing to death? I'm curious how many Belgians actually froze to death. My prediction is none. Having lived in Belgium (Wallonia) for 9 years, I can tell you that they go on strike a lot. But somehow, the "Real" News Network only picked up on this now. Again, how convenient.

   And no, I don't watch FOX or CNN and didn't approve of wars started by the U.S. (I'm not even much of a fan of how things work in the U.S). But all you "Real News" sheep should realise your just as gullible as watchers of those channels by falling for the very selective reality presented by this channel. To any sensible person, the name alone smells a bit fishy…

3. hopfully they dont overthrow the monarchy if the government does not deliver

4. These people are helping the Russians win, this is what they wanted, they use the winter as their weapon to win wars, duh!

5. If Belgian union leaders are anything like their British counterparts, they will be doffing their caps to the Belgian government and employers, and accepting the smallest wage increases offered. They disgust me in their spinelessness. Well-paid union aristocrats are as much the enemy of the working class as CEOs and Tories.

6. Need a minimum wage of 10 000 euros

7. What Europe did’t realize yet,is that the colonies don’t want to work for them for free anymore. Gas station to the East is permanently closed,and main base for capitalism – infinite expention- is over. There is no more place to expend and steal resourses and free labor.Military machine of US will keep the States afloat for a wile,but the goal is achived-Europe’s economy unable to compete with them anymore energy cost wise. The winner in this scenario is One Empire Under the Sun,that will consume Russia in future without the war.

8. End the sanctions on Russia and start rebuilding your economy before its too late. Your leaders are purposely destroying your countries.

9. Do not let the union leadership sell you out! Strike committees. Learn from recent strikes in US. Do not trust union leadership!

10. Nice to see this. Meanwhile, Americans, even the poor and the dwindling middle income class, still VOTE, like they did last November, to get LESS and give MORE to the war profiteers, corporations and billionaires who own the ONE PARTY of Congress and its two rotten branches, R and D. Weather is nicer here in America. Government is superior in Western and northern Europe, with the obvious exception of the people of the UK, who are nearly as stupid as American voters.

11. There needs to be a World Revolution to get rid of these corrupt people that cause so much misery on the people…

12. Capitalism is a dead end for humanity

13. If you want lower energy prices, maybe…I don’t know… try not putting sanctions on a country which supplies a bulk of energy for Europe (Russia).

14. These guys are striking their asses off and barely getting any recompense, so there’s no hope for Americans who won’t even unionize… Let alone strike!

15. Here in Australia the reserve bank is raising interest rates on people's mortgages to stop the inflation caused by the Ukraine war, if anyone can make sense of that , I would like to hear from them. The fact is we are all being lied to about the cause of inflation, inflation is just pure greed by corporations. It's not because of the Ukraine war.

16. European union is Finished….Kaput. Ursula The Ursless Wonder Lion will kill her countryman by diverting financial resources to Ukraine. What dumb Europeans.

17. I saw those red flags, they are flying the hammer and sickle high and proud, power to the people

18. Not on the news is it

19. No mainstream media reports on this!!! MSM have gone completely fascist

20. Wait, Brussels just decided that producers (actually their investors) of heavy battle tanks for Ukraine come first, and that it wouldn't be right to tax excessive profits of energy corporations.
    So, when Ukraine is a smoldering pile of rubble, maybe then we can get the corrupt politicians think of their people.

21. It should be like this in all Europe if not the demonstration cant achieve it's aims

22. Bye bye EU

23. So long as Belgium remain a sheeple of the EU, NATO and most of all the United States of America; the people of Belgium will remain the slave of the corrupt political and economic elites.

24. Didn't know Europe had a Margin Act that prevented Unions from demanding wage increase beyond certain point – and to think these re the countries preaching to the rest of the world about equality, fraternity and what not. Such a big bunch of humbugs and liars these politicians of Europe! Why don't Europeans from every country demand a mid-term election since they are dissatisfied with each country's governmental policies that have affected common people? You can be sure the moment ordinary citizens demand this, politicians across every Party will start gravelling and ensure some of their idiotic foreign policy decisions, which have led their countries and the rest of the world to this bleak situation, will be reversed. They are still riding their high horses for now, knowing elections are some years away and they hope somehow they can change the situation somewhat in the interim, and so they refuse to listen.

25. They should change the Kommie Bankster led government.
    . Idiocracy

26. When will the rank and file in the US wake up and pay attention to what's happening in the rest of the world.

27. Idiots who want money are too stupid to see the cause of NATO aggression is what needs addressing or the costs of living will continue to rise and their efforts were for NOTHING!

28. Since the start of 2022, we have been in a recession, but major media outlets and governments around the world refused to acknowledge it. anyways Looking for a new stock or Cryptocurrency to invest in. Short or long term Gains. i was at a seminar and the host spoke about making well over $1.5M within 4months of investing $450k. any suggestions pls

29. Crying out loud. €800 per year to €8,000 per year. That means each utility – not combined.

    Well done acronym gang. Devilish suicide mission, crime will understandably increase.

30. Why don’t they focus on the main issue? Why is Belgium sending billions to fund a comedian supported by a nazi regime in Ukraine. If this money never went to this US stooge the workers would not be suffering as they are. The Belgiums need to replace the Belgium government who are US stooges.

31. Peace love and solidarity!

32. Well one step on the way would be to end the war in Ukraine and normalise relations with Russia.
    Pro diplomacy, pro peace.

33. Want to fix the energy crisis in EU, simply end the stupid sanctions!

34. Capitalism..

35. Still unsure how marching will lower energy prices that are set by international traders.

36. Always the same, no matter what country. The focus is at the bottom. There should be massive detail reports as to where all the hard earned money has been going over the last few years, especially since the food industry for instance has reached record breaking profits during those very same years, along with a record breaking number of newly created billionaires and millionaires. According to Forbes magazine, there is a new billionaire created about every 17 hours. Hmmmm….where did that money come from…..Ah let me think for a second……it had to come from somewhere.. ???

37. WHY IS IT
    that NOBODY in that video OR it's narrator
    BOTHERED TO CALLOUT THE COMPLETE CONSPIRACY TO FORCE RUSSIAN ENERGY
    TO NOT BE SOLD TO EUROPE?!!
    There is no need for all this "labor strike" talk.
    ALSO, breakup the CIA/BANKSTER EU!
    That's what you march and protest on. FORCED SHORTAGES and VASSALAGE TO THE EU/U.S.

38. higher wages equals more inflation which leads to higher wages and in turn more inflation…….
    we just need to stop the ECB from printing money, that is the real cause for this problem worldwide, including the federal reserve
    the prices are not getting higher, it is your purchasing power that got reduced

    don't get me wrong, i want money too, but we need to understand the corruption behind all this

39. I blame foreigners and the poor….At least that’s who I’m told to blame 😳

40. Inflation and energy costs caused by EU sanctions
