CALAIS, France — Striking French ferry workers block Eurotunnel, blocking trains between France, England.
That's it. That is the extensive reporting on a wage dispute. No matter the media outlet the actions of labor to bring brevity to their demands meets with a single sentence of description. Is that not amazing. It is listed with the news because it could cause a slower commute. It isn't about the issues, simply the inconvenience. Is it any wonder why labor had to take to the streets to be recognized?
In absence of real information, I thought this video from Midnight Cowboy would at least illustrate an understanding of protesting workers.
