Working class hero! These are my own opinions and not those of Fórsa Trade Union or any connected organisation

Win for workers in Rotunda Hospital!

Car park charges were being increased from 300 - 1,100%, an extra expense that would in reality act like a pay cut.

It would also have be much harder on lower paid workers. But they banded together & got it paused. Well done! #JoinAUnion

Things you love to see. Two young ladies supporting their county and Irish culture at Croke Park today. What a fabulous place modern Ireland is. #AllIreland 🇮🇪

There is no war in Gaza. It is an attempt to erase the Palestinian people from existence. It is a genocide.

Starvation.

Massacring civilians as they queue for food.

Bombing hospitals, homes, and refugee camps.

The international community must stop enabling this genocide, and impose serious and immediate sanctions on Israel.

So...

higher cost of living
+
inadequate infrastructure
+
under-staffed public services
+
successive governments awash with money.

What could possibly be wrong?

Ireland is second most expensive country in Europe, data shows https://t.co/M3R32MgYu7

Boycott for Gaza!

[Kevin Callinan @kcallinan50]

Our colleagues in many European countries, affiliated to @EPSUnions, know from bitter experience that care of the vulnerable is too important to be left to profiteers.

The 🇮🇪 government needs to change direction now.

Thanks to @aoifehegs and #RTEinvestigates for shining a 🔦

Shame on Fianna Fáil + Fine Gael! They have just voted down Sinn Féin’s Bill to stop the Irish Central Bank facilitating the sale of Israeli war bonds.

These bonds pay for the weapons used to slaughter men, women and children in their tens of thousands.

This flies in the face of ordinary Irish people who stand for an end to the genocide, for an end to the occupation, for a free Palestine.

Saoirse don Phalaistín!🇵🇸

[John Brady TD @johnbradysf]

Tonight marks a shameful moment in Irish history.

Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael have voted against Sinn Féin’s bill to end the use of Ireland as a financial conduit for Israel’s genocide in Palestine—by halting the sale of Israeli war bonds through the Irish Central Bank.

They do not speak for the people of Ireland. We will not stay silent. We will not give up. 🇵🇸

#POSTMASTERS DO NOT SIGN THE NEW CONTRACT AN POST ARE PUTTING IN FRONT OF YOU, EVEN THE SOCIAL WELFARE MINISTER IS MISLEADING YOU!

#TonightVMTV #liveline #twip @paulmurphy_TD

What Social Welfare Minister @daracalleary says:

"While the Minister cannot comment on individual or specific cases which are the subject of litigation, he can advise that the case referenced is not in relation to a “Social Welfare Appeals Office decision that a postmaster was an employee and not self-employed.” In that context the date of the decision requested by the Deputy is immaterial. I trust that the Deputy will be satisfied with this response"

The majority here believes opinion polls should be used to determine if a unity referendum is called 🗳️
