The author said Wednesday should be only the first step unless the government committed to a decent pay increase. They added that the following Wednesday could bring larger rallies in city and town centres after morning pickets, and expressed support for the workers.
The author said that uncleaned streets, the Dáil not sitting and weather forecasts not being issued showed the influence of public sector workers. They argued that people understood why support for the workers was strong and that a victory for them would benefit everyone. #JoinAUnion #UpTheWorkers https://t.co/RgNR54qsWo #PublicSector #WorkersRights #UnionStrong #IE

The author wrote that nurses, midwives, teachers and public servants kept the country running and deserved fair pay, decent working conditions and respect. They said workers and families were struggling with the cost of living and called on the Government to listen and provide fair pay. https://t.co/etzpqEEv08 #FairPay #WorkersRights #CostOfLiving #IE
The author urged people to support Wednesday’s strike, encouraging public sector workers to join picket lines and others to visit one in solidarity. They said a decent pay rise for striking workers could help all workers secure increases that outpaced inflation.
The author argued that workers created the country’s wealth and should have been prioritised in Budget 2027. They said the budget instead favoured the wealthiest in the hope that benefits would eventually reach others, and described it as being for the rich.
Sinn Féin said nurses, teachers and other workers who kept Ireland running had been forced to protest for fair pay, while those at the top continued to benefit under the government. The party said it stood with workers and would keep fighting for them to receive what they deserved. https://t.co/5bGtvTdFVq #FairPay #WorkersRights #Ireland #IE
The author said the government had again failed workers and families in its Budget, arguing it had missed an opportunity to put ordinary Irish people first and make life more affordable. After listening to Sarah and others, the author said they would continue to advocate for them. https://t.co/UfPg7E2SBO #Budget2023 #WorkersRights #CostOfLiving #IE
The author said the budget could have offered hope on housing but claimed the government had prioritised major developers, investment funds and corporate landlords over workers and families. They said they would continue pressing the government for affordable homes.
The author argued that, despite government claims that the budget would benefit workers, changes to tax and USC would provide increases of only 1.5%, and less than 1% for many, compared with inflation of 3.5%. They said workers’ incomes would therefore fall in real terms and fail to cover rising living costs, and called on workers to fight and strike.
The people demand real action to end the rip-off and make Ireland affordable. I will never stop fighting for you and your family. Let’s keep the pressure on this government and work to build an Ireland that puts workers and families first. https://t.co/UlRVmUa1rl #Ireland #AffordableLiving #WorkersRights #IE

Jennifer Welch: “Go listen to Hasan Piker.

I've supported this case. Unions should be working to support women discriminated against at work, but instead they've been doing the discriminating. If we can get them back in line it'll really help #Unions #GenderEquality #WorkersRights #Nocountrycodesfound.
Young people don’t need more talk about hope. They need the chance to build a future here at home. That means affordable homes, fair rents and a government that puts workers, families and communities first.

Socialdemokraterna förstår fortfarande inte varför de förlorar arbetarna. De tror att det handlar om kommunikation. De tror att det handlar om att väljarna blivit lurade av sociala medier eller högerpopulism. Sanningen är betydligt enklare än så. Arbetarna har sett verkligheten med egna ögon. De har dragit sina slutsatser. Och de har börjat rösta därefter. https://t.co/Z65jA0xpdz #politics #votewisely #workersrights
Increasing minimum wage, promoting centralised negotiations, extending collective agreements' coverage as well as their temporal application are key measures to support workers and businesses alike.
