Wonder what their demands are now, because most of them are now nearing retirement age: increased pensions? Anyway, the poof chaps were betrayed right royally by the Leftists and socialists who led the strike and their so called leaders are now unapproachable, enjoying ministerial perks in this "socialist" government. There are no "Saadukin Pelenewun" now.
