I often find it a bit awkward when lawmakers join in on protests, like isn't a protest to make our voices heard by them in the first place?
Although of course there is only so much you can do, even as a prime minister, so it might still be important for her that she wants to see it better.
In my country, strikes are almost universally smeared as the worst evil anyone could possibly do. I would LOVE for a political leader to reinforce the validity of striking like this.
