Why are Tunisians still protesting?

Young Tunisians are fuming.
For the last two weeks, they’ve been organising protests across the country, sometimes clashing with the police.
And the unrest couldn’t have come at a more symbolic time.
It’s now ten years since Tunisia got rid of its long-serving President, Ben Ali. The type of occasion that calls for a toast, right?
Not quite. Many people feel their problems remain unaddressed - from the lack of jobs to police repression.
So, will their voices be heard this time?
