Support Ambulance professionals!
Last week, SIPTU members in the NAS voted overwhelmingly for industrial action, up to and including strike action.
The first date of action will be a 24-hour stoppage on the 12th May.
Government COULD have put together an innovative and progressive package of direct supports.
It COULD have regulated prices and profit margins in the energy sector.
INSTEAD, they opted for regressive tax cuts and subsidies to employers.
Workers abandoned AGAIN by Government
Sunday Read: Do no harm by Omar Barghouti
❝ Palestinians do not have the luxury of genocide fatigue or of giving up hope, not to mention that, as I’ve said on other occasions, giving up hope is so un-Irish!
SIPTU has called on Government to ensure that all workers in low paid industries benefit from a new floor on annual salaries for holders of non-EEA employment permits, warning the Union will not accept a situation where workers already living and working in Ireland are paid less.
For International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian people, let's make this the biggest demonstration yet! There is no ceasefire. Our government must sanction apartheid Israel to make it end its genocidal crimes in Gaza and the West Bank All out! #FreePalestine#SanctionsNow
Today our members across the private and public service took action to demand Ireland takes a stand for justice, human rights, and respect for international law.
ENACT THE OCCUPIED TERRITORIES BILL

Today, SIPTU members stood in solidarity with the Palestinian people. 🇵🇸
Trade unions in Palestine need our support more than ever.
Palestinian workers continue their brave struggle for freedom and justice.
We must answer their call and end complicity in oppression.
“These changes are cruel, unnecessary, and at odds with the values of most Irish people. Migrant workers are essential, that’s a fact. Yet this policy tells them that while their labour is welcome, their families are not.”
- Deputy General Secretary, Ethel Buckley.
We are mobilising on November 29 to take action in solidarity with Palestine. Listen to the call of European trade union leaders and join us on the streets and in the workplaces! https://t.co/ZguLBBzeD1 @fagforbundet@irishcongress@LAB_InterDept@UnionSolidaires@galizaCIG
