«100 years, 100 actions» is the name of the initiative that, on March 6, will take place in cities across the country, under the motto “Freedom, Democracy, Socialism – For rights, the improvement of living conditions and social progress. Against exploitation and impoverishment”.

In a note sent to the newsrooms, the PCP emphasizes that “on that date, the PCP will bring to the streets the denunciation of the problems the country is facing and the demand for a policy that responds to the problems, anxieties and demands of workers and the Portuguese people, from the patriotic and left-wing alternative, for advanced democracy, for socialism».
Within the scope of the commemorations, the PCP will also carry out actions of “contact with workers and the population as of March 1st”.
A leaflet will also be distributed in which the PCP “reaffirms its commitment as always as a workers' party, the party that is at your side every day and whose project is inseparable from your interests and aspirations for a better life, the liberation of all the forms of exploitation and oppression».
On Thursday, March 4, “Avante!”, the PCP's central organ, will come out with a special edition including a supplement dedicated to the PCP's 100 years of struggle and “to its exalting project that is projected today and in the future, and also a poster alluding to the centenary of the PCP».
