The public sector strikes in the UK on November 30th showed the anger which millions feel towards the Con-Dem coalition government, which is trying to make ordinary people pay for the economic crisis by attacking pensions, pay, jobs and the welfare state. Over 2.5 million workers were on strike.

On picket lines and protests across the country workers and students sent messages of solidarity to their sisters and brothers in Egypt, who have been striking, occupying and protesting for their rights in unprecedented numbers since the January revolution.
