Spanish firefighters stripped naked Thursday morning to highlight their opposition to cuts.
Eight firefighters were involved in the protest in the town of Mieres, Asturias, at eight o’clock, when their shift changed.
The action was also in support of all public administration employees who face swinging cuts, or recortes, to pay and benefits, as part of the latest austerity package that was unveiled by the right-wing government of Mariano Rajoy last week.
‘Governments know only how to raise money from our pockets in response to an economic crisis that no worker, public nor private, has caused,’ they said.
