The coalition saying it is going to buy the homes that are being sold with HAP tenants in situ is finally admitting that the privatisation of public housing was a mistake. They have paid for these homes many times over. The state needs a model where it builds public housing on
A fantastic achievement for #hospitalityworkers from a fantastic and dedicated group of trade union campaigners @1movementgalway .. keep going guys change needs you all #onemovement #onemission #voiceforall #joinaunion
We welcome the new #tippinglegislation in time for the busy Christmas season but ask customers to still check #wheredoesmytipgo and ensure #servicechargeisforworkers we urge the government to use this as a starting point to improve terms and conditions for workers in #Hospitality
Well done @BigStartIreland @siptu @Debnolds and all activists everywhere .. the power is in the collective #joinaunion #unionsolidarity #workersolidarity
Pays to read the detail! Great news for ECEC graduates - year 2 of Core Funding sees removal of 3-year work experience rule for graduate lead educators & managers. The ECEC sector is definitely on an upward trajectory. Well done all who advocated & @rodericogorman for acting

Remember: electricity credits are ultimately a subsidy to energy companies. They set the price and government subsidises households and businesses to pay that price. Just like HAP subsidies to private landlords. #Budget2023

Made this one for you @mrjamesob
.@donnellystephen @annerabbitte I support the S39 & S56 strikers!
Equal work but not equal pay? Why does @HSElive think it's ok that professionals in disability & homeless supports are treated like this? The sector is in the verge of collapse. The solution is #ValuingCare

Voting in all its forms is hugely important and this ballot needs your vote #ballotvote2022 now and if you’ve already voted ask your work colleagues to ensure they’ve got their vote in too
Check your emails!
You should have received your voting code for the ballot on the proposed public service pay deal. If not, then email [email protected]
Negotiations have gotten us this far. Now it comes down to you - to play your part and vote.

The power of the collective, the power of the union movement and workers having their voice heard is crucial to #decentwork #decentlives .. well done @Debnolds @BigStartIreland and all activists who made this happen #joinaunion #onemovement #workerpower

And a big thanks to @SIPTU for the fabulous venue that is Connolly Cafe and the wonderful rights information cards distributed to students today #strongertogether #joinaunion

FYI for students - your landlord or accommodation provider (fancy word for landlord) cannot force you to pay for a full semesters rent upfront. You are legally entitled to pay in monthly instalments and a deposit should not exceed the value of one months rent. Know your rights.
A great achievement
Our Fórsa climbers are making great progress on #Kilimanjaro, reaching 4,800m this afternoon.
The crew will hope to get a few hours sleep this evening before setting off again, pushing for the final summit climb from midnight.
Keep going! We’re so proud of you all!

Couldn’t agree more .. collaborating and standing together is the only way workers will get anything decent for themselves and their families #joinaunion

“Price rises are caused by profit. The big shots in this economy, who live on dividends and shareholdings, are raking it in. We’ve never had more billionaires, the super-rich have never been richer.”
- @RMTunion’s Mick Lynch
To anyone working in hospitality this legislation will make a small but positive difference, #joiningaunion will make a significantly positive difference to your working life, don't hesitate join a union today, its probably the smartest thing you can do as a worker

Can’t figure out why @KayBurley didn’t ask on behalf of the British Public if Tory ministers we’re going to bring the Government to a standstill by withdrawing their Labour in order to achieve their aims 🤔@RMTunion
Outrageous that politicians are still sticking their heads in the sand in relation to housing .. the solutions are there #publichousing #localauthorityledhousing #apprenticeships #directemployment #housingourcommunities @mmcgrathtd @MichealMartinTD @LeoVaradkar
When are @fiannafailparty
@FineGael going to act. The answer is never. This is exactly what they created it’s no accident.@MichealMartinTD @LeoVaradkar @DarraghOBrienTD independent.ie/irish-news/ne…

This proposal is with @corkcitycouncil long enough and makes perfect sense .. why shouldn’t all public monies spent include an investment in up-skilling and re-skilling our workforce #joinaunion @AccessCork @MichealMartinTD @mmcgrathtd #apprentices #greenjobs #skillsforlife
We need st least 3% of the workforce to be recognised apprenticeships or internships on all Public Procurement contracts of €200,000 or more #givethemhope @SimonHarrisTD @onemovementcork @corkcitycouncil

Imagine what the €1.06b in tax cuts outlined in the Summer Economic Statement could do to help families cut childcare and back to school costs, and to make primary and second-level education genuinely free?
Don’t be conned by costly tax cuts that favour the better off @labour
