00:00No, they're okay to speak. I would strike too if it was money, yeah.
00:03Yeah, because they are also part of the community.
00:07They're also being affected by...
00:09I'm not like 100% familiar with what's going on,
00:13but if they're sort of striking against low pay,
00:16they're not being able to feed their families,

01:00It gets harder, I suppose you through that.
01:03But I just said, put in my hands and say I need to settle into 축hay ça.
01:05I pedals on it and say you don't think your rights are being treated
01:20for it.
01:21So, Buying действительно, it's ...
