Plight of Irans Bus Drivers Gets a Mention in UK Press

Surfing the internet at lunch time, suddenly I came across an article in the Observer. I was so shocked, I nearly fell off my chair. Someone in the British press finally mentioned the plight of 1300 Iranian bus drivers who were arrested for going on strike. The article even mentioned the harrowing tale of wives and children of the drivers who were beaten up by the Iranian police.

Could the UK press finally be seeing some sense? Could the UK journalists finally realise that Muslim extremists are not the only suppressed people in the world?
