Police officers, school and kindergarten teachers are back on strike against public sector cuts. The unions state that the government has failed to honour the promises it made last May to end the strike then (see the May newsletter). Police officers went back on strike on 11 January to accompany on-going negotiations, whereas teachers have announced they will join the new public sector strike on 23 January.
