Crime: Colombian women hold "crossed legs" strike

In what has been dubbed the "crossed legs" strike, girlfriends and wives of gang members in the Colombian city of Pereira have called a ban on sex to persuade their men to hang up their guns. They have also recorded a song for local radio urging others to follow their example.

I wonder if any Brits of my generation are thinking of the old shop steward catch-cry from, The Rag Trade?

"Everybody out!"
