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

Wealth in society is created by workers, by carers, & by ordinary people whose labour sustains the entire system. It's those people, who have the power to challenge an economic system that rewards exploitation & now stands on the verge of producing its first trillionaire #WorkersRights #WealthInequality #EconomicJustice #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.
Currently, 17, 18 and 19 year old workers can legally be paid just 70%, 80% or 90% of the minimum wage, respectively. Apprentices of any age can be paid even less than this - in their first year, only a shocking 56% of the minimum wage. This is why we introduced a bill to fix it. #MinimumWage #WorkersRights #Apprenticeships #Nospecificcountrycodescanbeidentifiedinthetweetprovided.

DUP blocking Good Jobs Bill at the Executive under the guise of "scrutiny" is a delay tactic The Economy Committee is literally the place for legislative scrutiny Blocking it behind closed doors isn't about improving the bill, it's about blocking workers' rights by the backdoor #GoodJobsBill #WorkersRights #LegislativeScrutiny #Therearenospecificcountrycodesrelatedtothetweetprovided.
