"This is an outright assault on our most basic rights!" he passionated intoned to the cheers of the assembled crowd. "We are merely seeing the thin wedge of the DSU's agenda. One that would deprive Westmarkisch people of their dignity" "We simply wont tolerate it! We will not relent in our fight for the expansion of a minimum guaranteed income for all workers!", Hr Gladki's final words saw the crowd erupt, before quickly departing with a small detachment of uniformed supporters for more rallies across Westmark. |
