From the Greek Streets

The National Printing House prints the government gazette; for any voted law to come into action, it would have to get printed in the gazette first. For this reason, the printing house’s employees occupied the building (pic) to block the law from coming into action. Even with the government announcing that the law would come into effect even without getting printed, the occupation continues. Employees have also occupied the country’s general accounting office.

Meanwhile, in the northern city of Komotini, employees at the troubled company ENKLO have, impressively, occupied two bank branches – of the national bank and of the bank of Greece.

Building up for Thursday’s general strike, employees across the country’s solid waste disposal areas (XYTA) have declared a lock-down until that day.
