Approximately 50,000 people protested in Warsaw on Saturday in front of the PM's office.
Among the demonstrators were the representatives of the metal, construction, transport, food and clothing industries, as well as public service workers. The most numerous (some 30,000) were members of teachers' unions who marched from Torwar towards the Ministry of Education headquarters, where they met Minister Joanna Kluzik-Rostkowska.
Apart from that, representatives of farmers' unions came to Warsaw to support the protesting group.
The manifestation was organized by the OPZZ trade union. The protesters demanded the government fight against "junk contracts", to introduce a minimum hourly wage and to increase salaries in public sector, among others.
