Labour?s ?Mission-Driven? Government is the Antithesis of Liberty Tue Jul 23, 2024 17:30 | Dr David McGrogan
Labour is "mission-driven", says Keir Starmer. But the last thing anyone should want is a Government with a mission, says David McGrogan. That's because a Government with a mission needs conscripts. That's you and me.

Headlines earlier this year proclaimed that catching Covid may knock up to 6 points off your IQ. A new study punctures this claim: there was no decline in cognitive test scores after Covid infection.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4I was saddened to read on the Irish Times website comments attributed to the Unite Irish leader Jimmy Kelly about this mess. Here Jimmy Kelly seems to be backing the anti-union Michael O'Leary. I was shocked when I read this and it has opened my eyes to what Jimmy has become.
This is what the Irish Times site says.
The Unite trade union, which represents aircraft maintenance workers at the airport, called on Government and Ryanair to “sort out the mess” regarding the jobs.
“It is very rare that a union will agree with Michael O’Leary,“ said spokesman Jimmy Kelly.
“This should be nothing to do with personalities though, and everything to do with the future of 300 highly skilled workers and their families,” he added.
Mr Kelly said: “Politicians on every side are playing games with workers futures. The Government has acted too slowly again to save jobs that will be the making of our country’s future.”

Dáil row over airport jobs issue
It’s a pity Jimmy Kelly and UNITE didn’t fight to keep the jobs in SR Technics when they had the chance. UNITE were disgraceful in their treatment of their members in SR Technics. Marching them up to the top of the hill and ……. fuck all…
I agree it is quite sad what jimmy kelly has become and his statements on this are shocking from anyone on the left.
to me it is just inexplicable
Joe Higgins is exactly right when he views O'Leary's motives with suspicion. I suppose O'Leary will he'll be claiming next that his middle name is Larkin. Any so called union leader who falls for this nonsense is being deluded - the same way they were deluded when they had their workers working for buttons while the capatilists sent the country down the tubes.
I would've thought by now that by now they'd have realised - that "Greed is not Good" for workers, only employers, who, when they make a knickers of falsely inflating the economy can be bailed out by the poor while they still live in splendor. Before anymore of these Stupid Union Leaders support O'Leary - in public for a change - why don't they ask O'Leary if the workers he intends to employ will be allowed to join the union which champions his cause.
Although I have had my differences with Joe in the past [ mostly because he thought I had another agenda] I would advise these [for want of better descriptions] union leaders, to Listen to Joe Higgins and get all the workers jobs back
