Greece - The rubber glove rebellion

BBC News - The rubber glove rebellion

"A group of middle-aged cleaners have become heroes to Greeks hit hard by
austerity for refusing to go quietly when their jobs were cut. They have clashed
with police and camped for months in central Athens - their defiance springing
from decades of low-paid work and hard lives as mothers, wives, widows or
divorcees."
