"We have had to come out again on the streets because the law that the government has forced on us is fine for working, but is not being applied in reality. They are not putting in place the means or the inspectors necessary, nor Civil Guard that would veto big companies who are not paying what they should."

"We are not better, things have gone back to square one. The royal decree has been left in the drawer, stuck. The law is not being applied so we are working in the same conditions that we did in March, this is our situation."

STORYLINE:
A group of truck drivers have started an indefinite strike in Spain Monday, in protest of working conditions.
Hundreds of truckers marched through central Madrid demanding solutions from the government of Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez.
The drivers are demanding changes to their security and the processes that they have to go through.
Although the strike starts just days before a critical period for deliveries due to Black Friday and the Christmas season, truckers hope that the strike won't last as long as their previous face-off with the government.
The last strike lasted over 20 days and caused problems with supplies.
