From The Socialist newspaper, 16 March 2011
Hunger strike
On 9 March, when 300 immigrant workers were on their 44th day of a mass protest hunger strike in Athens and Thessaloniki, an agreement was made between the protesters and the Greek PASOK government.
It ensured that the government would meet most of the strikers' demands regarding the obtaining of legal status in Greece. Disgracefully, however, only 24 hours later government ministers appear to have reneged on the deal after making statements disputing parts of the agreement.
