Notes
- this table may well not be current and complete
- day counts given in bold orange are final — meaning the striker has finished their protest
- the dates in the Events column may be a day or so wrong as it is hard to gain consistent and accurate timestamps
- the Days column uses the
age in daystemplate and is current at the time of the last edit but is not fully dynamic — a trivial edit may therefore be necessary to refresh these duration values
trivial edit to ensure currency: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

Legal aspects[edit]
Groll (2024) quite possibly covers the legal aspects.[1] The part that I can access translates thus:

The man is completely emaciated. ...

Recently removed material[edit]
@Drmies: Please discuss your recently removed material here. For instance, the quiet visit of economics minister Robert Habeck is certainly significant. And I believe that passage should be retained. Your remark about "keeping it real. we are not the strike's website" is not especially focused or helpful in this context. TIA, RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 15:33, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
