What is in the new €5.2bn public sector pay deal and will it keep pace with inflation? https://t.co/56CwmnxQWy

@eoghancorry Problem child”? Aer Lingus delivered €142m operating profit, a 17.4% margin versus BA’s 14.4%, and non-fuel CASK growth of just 0.8% compared with BA’s 5.1% and Iberia’s 2%. Hardly the disaster your headline suggests, Eoghan. The IAG figures deserve a little more balance.

"What started out as 24 pilots meeting in secret grew into 80,000 proud union pilots in the U.S. and Canada, helping make commercial airline travel the safest form of transportation in the world. Those 24 pilots had to stay quiet."

The 1st train in close to 25 years arrived in Foynes today as testing continues on the new track, signalling etc which will link the port to the national rail network. The port handled a record 9.4mt in 2025. #irishrail @ShannonFoynes @HalloranCathy @Limerick_Leader @EamonRyan

Ireland once again ranks the lowest in terms of pilots confidence in their safety reporting when it comes to fatigue. The @IAApress needs to take decisive action in regulating fatigue systems within Irish airlines #fatigue #aviation #safety

🚨 🇧🇷 HISTÓRICO TRIUNFO DE LULA: BRASIL REDUCE LA JORNADA LABORAL A 40 HORAS SIN TOCAR LOS SALARIOS

Brasil da un paso histórico en materia de derechos laborales. El Senado aprobó, por una contundente mayoría de 75 votos contra uno, la eliminación del régimen 6x1, que obligaba a trabajar seis días por uno de descanso. La reforma establece una reducción gradual de la jornada de 44 a 40 horas semanales, con dos días de descanso remunerado y sin recortes salariales.

La medida representa una importante victoria política para Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, que convirtió la reducción de la jornada laboral en una de sus principales banderas electorales. Menos horas de trabajo, más tiempo para las familias y el mismo salario: Brasil avanza hacia una transformación histórica de los derechos de millones de trabajadores.

Vibration. Heavy gear. Confined cockpits. Long duties.

Musculoskeletal issues are among the most common and underreported consequences for rotary pilots and crew.

And they’re not just a welfare issue. They’re a flight safety issue.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Kenneth Bondas, former President of the Finnish Seafarers' Union.

Kenneth’s trade unionism was rooted in his own working life at sea, before devoting more than three decades to representing seafarers.

This week's strike action by 300,000 public sector workers will also affect the work of politicians. It was confirmed yesterday that Wednesday’s Dáil sitting would be cancelled due to the one-day work stoppage. But how did we get to this point?

Ten years ago, the international community made aviation history by agreeing on a clear path towards carbon-neutral growth through the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA).

Railways belong under public control!

A huge win in Western Australia is the first step towards 5,500km of freight rail network being run for the public good, not private profit. End rail privatisation!

Today, BALPA members at Loganair have voted by a significant majority to accept a two-year pay deal. This agreement represents pay increase worth 9.2% compounded over two years, thanks to the hard work of ours reps, National Officer and members.

I want to be honest about how we’ve got to a place where British billpayers are paying some of the highest energy costs in Europe.

Over the past 40 years, we’ve given up control of our necessities, outsourced our essentials and privatised the basics. Water, transport, housing. And of course, energy.

Now the public are paying the price. We haven’t invested in the infrastructure we need. Conflict overseas has pushed up energy costs and it’s hurting our businesses and families.

That’s why we need to take back greater control of our energy system.

This week, I announced Great British Grid, which will speed up connections and push down bills.

We’re also giving mayors, local leaders and communities a stronger role. With funding for People’s Power projects, communities will be able to build solar panels on libraries and town halls, hydro schemes in rivers or publicly owned windfarms on local land.

But it’s not just energy we need stronger public control over. It’s also water, housing, transport and care.

So we’re repealing the ban on public ownership of water companies. We’re building more council homes than this country has seen since the end of World War Two.

We’re reforming the leasehold system so families aren’t squeezed for every penny. And we’re opening up home ownership for first time buyers who can’t rely on the bank of mum and dad.

This week I also announced my determination to introduce a National Care Service, to put people above profit and to give pensioners peace of mind.

Together, we’ll rewire the country from top to bottom so that it works for all people in all places.

That is the only way to put Britain back on the right path. It’s the only way to put power back in people’s hands. And it’s the only way we will bring hope again.

@Fahadnaimb Publicly detailing cockpit entry procedures, emergency access and timings crosses a line. Whatever point you’re making, broadcasting operational security information is irresponsible. This post should be deleted in the interest of security.
