Cosatu deputy general secretary, Solly Phetoe, says it is unfortunate that workers disrupted their own Workers' Day rally.
He says the rally was an opportunity for workers to consolidate all their issues.
The rally was disrupted when angry mineworkers interrupted the rally.

Meanwhile, former spokesperson of the Young Communist League of South Africa, the disruption was no ordinary rebellion.
