If there's one thing more shocking than the head of the Civil Service Muslim Network making antisemitic remarks, says David Shipley, it's that such sectarian groups shaping Government policy is now entirely normal.

Emergency protest over Victimisation at Anti Union Ballymun Hotel

Friday 1pm Ballymun Plaza Hotel, Ballymun

Ballymun Plaza Hotel employs over 40 people, the majority of whom want to be represented by SIPTU. But the management have refused to talk to the Union.

The workers suffer from bullying, lack of Sunday premiums and have not received pay increases.

This morning (Thursday) in a blatant act of intimidation and victimisation, management publicly sacked one of the workers identified as a union activists after he tried to sort out a case of bullying of another of the workers. The sacking was done publicly in the Hotel foyer. He was told to pack his things and leave immediately. Other members of staff were told that should he appear again he was to be escorted from the premises.

SIPTU has called a protest for tomorrow lunchtime (Friday 18th April) at 1.00pm outside the hotel. The union particularly wants people from the Ballymun community to show their support for basic trade union rights to come along if they are able to.

Ballymun People Before Profit is calling on all its supporters in the area who are available to join in this important protest and tell their friends and neighbours.
