Tourists le high and dry

– Greek passenger ships remained docked at ports across the country for a second day yesterday as seamen extended a strike to demand wage increases and the reinstatement of labour rights after the expiry of the country’s third bailout.

The strike, which started at 5am on Monday and was organised by Greece’s seamen federation and other sectoral unions, including dockers and merchant marine engineers, led to travel disruptions and left tourists stranded at ports. – Reuters
