Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6I see that Irish shipping is now paying some of its workers 4 euro an hour.
Once again Sinn Féin hit the nail on the head. I will certainly be voting for Mary Lou McDonald in the next euro elections.
This is REPUBLICAN Sinn Fein saying this. NOT Sinn Fein the sellout party. Two different organisations mate.
Doesn't say that in the title. Obviously whoever wrote this wants people to vote for Sinn Féin, so that's what I'll do. Slån.
Well, im sorry, but if you actually READ the article - Republican Sinn Fein is mentioned numerous times - including - ""Sinn Féin Poblachtach"" written in big bolded letters at the top. You cant really miss it unless...
Anyways, they are Sinn Fein, just as much as the 'Communist Party of Ireland' is the 'Communist Party'.
This proposal has been flagged for some time but the detail has only come out now. It's news but not a bolt from the blue.
Given overfishing by everybody (also flagged for decades) the idea is to reduce the coastal fleet by 35%, with €42m to buy in the skippers' vessel licences. They have to the end of April and it is voluntary not compulsory.
It will be a problem for fishermen who started in the recent past, but they will know of the flagged problems, and they took that chance when choosing to work in a dying industry.
Remember bus conductors, anyone? The under-30s think they are something to do with an orchestra.
