Join the demonstration on Saturday - demand a public sector strike

As soon as possible we need a unified day of strike action across the entire public sector to demand withdrawal of this pay cut. One day of strike action is unlikely to be enough to force a change of government policy. So this needs to be followed up with an ongoing campaign of strike action. Join us for the march on Saturday at the Parnell monument from 1.30. read full story / add a comment

The Mayo Echo reports today, that local fisherman using the refrigeration services provided by Bord Iascaigh Mhara at Ballyglass were amazed to find that the bill for electricity had rocketed from around 300 euro per quarter to nearly 6,000. Worried that the BIM service might be withdrawn, they investigated and found that someone had illegally hacked into the electricity supply and run up a huge bill.

And guess who was to blame?

Did the idea of the so called 'Pensions Levy' come from some of the very ICTU leadership who are supposed to negotiate on behalf of workers. This is one revelation that emerged on Saturday morning at a meeting of over 100 public sector trade unionists and two delegates from the Waterford Glass occupation. We were meeting in the Davenport hotel, Dublin to discuss a collective response to government attacks on workers and in particular the public sector pay cut. Most of those present were on branch committees or even national executives with a couple of branches delegating representatives to the meeting. The gathering could in that context be said to reflect the views of a large number of branches across the unions that organise public sector workers. read full story / add a comment
