- 11 Feb 2013 8:00 AM
Over 200 hunger marchers from 11 counties that started out in late January and early February aim to reach Parliament today in time to for the start of the spring session to demand work, fair wages and a decent living.
The marchers hope to gather at Astoria today before walking to Parliament, where organisers expect 4,000-5,000 demonstrators. The marchers, backed by the Socialist Party, have covered distances of up to 200km.
