Municipal workers occupied the Mayor’s office in Athens in another protest against austerity measures in debt-ridden Greece. The demonstrators, fearing job cuts after their municipal labour contracts expired, have been occupying Athens City Hall since March 21st. On Wednesday, they occupied Mayor Giorgos Kaminis’ nearby office for about two hours. There were about 200 demonstrators gathered outside the building. Giant Greek flags and protest banners- one reading “2,500 families will be thrown intothe street, we won’t stand for it” – were draped over the front of the building.
