Jump To Comment: 5 4 3 2 1Jocelyn all this was going no were in the first place,Bill and the lads done there best,mislead by the trots,just like Dave,Willy and Johnny last time.All of this puts us all in a bad way,starting a fight you know you can not win, is mad,the lads are still out of work,B.A.T.U. is weaker than at any time ever,Builders have come out of this looking good,the problems are bigger now.Trade Union work,is not the work of revolutionaries,its the work of reformers,these trots would not have the balls for revolution that is why they used working people like this.Good T/U work was done in Dunnes were the worker won.All this makes me sad to have to say.
It's simple really. If you have a problem with your job, go and get another one. Believe me, there will be plenty of people more than willing to take your place. Unions should be banned.
Today the ballybrack three walked out of prison with their heads helh high. They would have stayed longer only for they had no support... Where are all the brickys??????? If this was YOU they would have been there to support you. this protest is NOT over, they are still fighting for their rights but from the outside because nobody would do it for them. These three men cant join the picket or they will be sent back inside so please ALL bricklayers come and support them up at the UCD site on monday. Dont let them down lads they NEED your support. Thanks.
Isn't it always amazing how many Garda they can deploy to things like this? It really shows up the State for what it is, all about looking after the wealthy people's interest and to hell with the people. And to think we have to pay for them as well.
