'Last Wednesday marked a moment in history'
Last Wednesday marked a moment in history, as public sector workers took part in what was billed as the largest ``union mobilisation'' for more than 30 years and NHS nurses joined a national strike for the first time.
Professor Colin Humphreys says: ``I was intrigued by biblical stories of the final week of Jesus in which no one can find any mention of Wednesday. It's called the missing day. But that seemed so unlikely: after all, Jesus was a very busy man.''
