SA workers: “No money, no World Cup”

Thousands of striking South African council workers have taken the streets of the country demanding better wages and chanting “No money, no World Cup.”
“I believe that employers will meet our demands so that we don’t cause problems for the World Cup. It’s time for them to wake up and negotiate with us,” said Steve Falconer, a director at the South African Municipal Workers Union, which represents 130,000 workers.
The union said the strike would affect basic services such as street sweeping, rubbish collection and vehicle licensing.
