Tomada lashes out at Moyano's minimum wage reaction

Labour Minister Carlos Tomada and CGT umbrella union secretary-general Hugo Moyano were caught in another political crossfire today, following varying comments made between the government official and labour leader over the new minimum wage rates.

Tomada spoke today criticizing the fact that Moyano complained over the new wage that was announced last night -a rate of $2,985 pesos- saying that: “now he criticizes something that he always formed a part of.”

“Those kinds of comments are absolutely absurd. Everything he was trying to discredit is quite out of place because he is observing from outside but also because he is attacking something he always formed part of,” Tomada said today in a radio interview.
