Icelandic police protest pay contract delay

Around 100 police officers gathered to protest outside the Icelandic parliament today to draw attention to the fact that their collective wage contract ran out a year ago.

According to RUV the police officers arrived to the protest with a birthday cake in celebration of the contract’s anniversary.

It was their intention to give the cake to Finance Minister Steingrimur J. Sigfusson; but a parliamentary guard took reception of the confection on his behalf.
