Take a look at the link above. Protests like this happen all the time in Brussels. Most of the time, strikes are held around a holiday so the participants get an extra day off from work. That is just my outsiders opinion, but I am usually right! Of course the striking farmers don't ever get a day off since their animals still have to be fed and milked, so my hypothesis isn't correct in that instance. But for the most part, we usually see a transportation strike or a grocery store employee strike right around a long weekend. We have a holiday on Friday, January 22. Anybody want to place a bet about which of our public works will be on strike?
