An original strike, which wins all the votes on Facebook.

According to a post shared tens of thousands of times on the social network, bus drivers have gone on strike in Japan.

"They simply no longer cashed the tickets in order to impact their business and not the passengers", we can read.

The post, which denounces the disruption in public transport during social movements in France, does not specify when this strike took place, or in which city it took place.

FAKE OFF

This movement is not recent: it took place in April 2018 in the city of Okayama.

Bus drivers first stopped driving for an hour on a city line on April 23.

The Ryobi union renewed the movement on the 26th, this time deciding to roll, but not to charge the passengers.

For the occasion, the drivers had covered their body with a white sheet, as we can see in this report from the local channel KSB 5ch.

The next day, the "free strike" was extended to tram lines, reports the Nikkei site.

The drivers were protesting against the opening of a competing, cheaper line.

It was finally opened.

The strikers also feared the eventual removal of several deficit lines.

It was the first strike organized by the union in 63 years of existence.

As

The Guardian

recalled

in 2018, Australian bus drivers had already led a “similar strike in 2017. In France, this technique of strike, also known as“ gripper strike ”, is not legal.
