Our General Secretary, Owen Reidy, spoke to Morning Ireland this morning. By over-relying on corporation tax, Ireland risks the same old boom and bust economics. We need a new economic model that can deliver good jobs, improved living standards, and sustained growth.

Workers are being crushed by soaring rents and unaffordable house prices.   Young people are trapped in childhood bedrooms, many now raising their own kids in overcrowded homes, while others face forced emigration. Enough is enough! #RaiseTheRoof

We need to keep this pressure up on the Government or we're not going to have a change in policies. 100 years ago and more, we had the plague of absentee landlords. We have it again! We need public housing and we need it now. #RaiseTheRoof

Water services should never be privatised & we need this protected by the Constitution. We, ICTU, Connect & Siptu met with Minister James Browne to discuss why we need a referendum urgently. It being dropped from the programme for government, means we need to fight even harder.

There’s a row back on workers rights, human rights and LGBGTQ rights all over the world. At Dublin LGBTQ+ Pride let’s stand shoulder to shoulder with our Irish Congress (ICTU) sisters and brothers to show the forces of division that an injury to one is the concern of all.
