passed and that's really raised the level of public anger here at the beginning of the day the main labor parties in the country had led thousands of work is public sector workers on to the streets to protest against these measures and again like we said we saw these things that escalating quite dramatically throughout the day people are really losing trust in the eurozone leaders ability to take the country out of this crisis and to put measures in place that are actually realistic and can be met now what we've seen over the last couple of weeks is the government passing more and more these are starting measures to try and keep the international lenders on side to try and prove. to them that they're able to take these steps to try and plug the deficit in their budget the property tax that we saw passed last week and the announcement of possible job losses on top of people already in the country having had the salaries cut dramatically most people are to about thirty percent of the salaries of who are being cut then to have these extra taxes it is really raise the level of anger amongst the publi
