Summary
A nationwide 24-hour public transport strike hits Wednesday, September 9th, as unions FNV and CNV escalate their fight against government welfare cuts. Though the government has delayed some measures—including pension age hikes and unemployment benefit reductions—unions demand all cuts be scrapped, calling current compromises insufficient. Protests are swelling across the country, from The Hague to hospitals and ports, with government workers also preparing to demonstrate. The unions will call off the strike only if every proposed cut is canceled—otherwise, expect major disruption nationwide.
