May Day reports from Venezuela

May Day 2005 in Venezuela was an historic event. Some reports talk of up to one million people marching in the UNT demonstration (as against a few hundred at the CTV rally). The mood was upbeat with the recent victories at Venepal (now Invepal), CNV (now Inveval), and the main slogans referred to the debate about socialism and workers' co-management. We provide here some links to reports about May Day from Venezuelanalysis.com, Vheadline, Venezuela Solidarity and Marxist.com. Some excellent pictures of the day can be found on the aporrea.org web site and the Radio Nacional de Venezuela picture gallery.
