Cosatu leaders who spearheaded protest marches against rising food, fuel and electricity prices have sent a clear message to the new ANC leadership that they will not be spared the workers' wrath if they do not implement "pro-poor" policies.
"ANC must be on the forefront when the masses are rising. We expect the ANC to sit down and talk to us. We expect the leadership we have campaigned for in Polokwane to sit down with us.
"This is why Cosatu worked so hard to ensure [that] the leadership of the ANC is strongly biased towards the workers."
