From Agence France Press: For the fourth time in two years, millions of workers across Italy observed a general strike to protest against the economic policies of Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's centre-right government. Industries across the country came to a standstill as columns of demonstrators wound through the centres of Rome, Turin, Milan and other main cities. Employees from the troubled dairy group Parmalat led the protest in the northern city of Parma.The strike was "a response to the government to say they've got it wrong, about everything," Guglielmo Epifani, the leader of Italy's biggest union, the CGIL, told demonstrators in the Sicilian capital Palermo. Workers in most industries observed a four-hour strike, but schools, banks and post offices closed for the entire day.
