Jump To Comment: 3 2 1Despite the snow and sub-zero temperatures we had a successful meeting. Dublin Bus drivers addressed the meeting and described some of the dire effects the cuts will have on the service, plus of course the 160 sackings at the end of this month.
With others we are calling a protest in ballymun at the end of the month and launching a Ballymun Anti Cuts Campaign.
There's more detail, and documents on this site:- http://pbpdnw.wordpress.com/2009/02/07/busworkers-addre...cuts/
More incompetant cuts from Dublin Bus is on the cards . Hitting the most vulnerable citizens in our society .
Between dogmatic Inspectors checking drivers on their routes as the Drivers attempt to play catch up through traffic , gurriers to deal with , old persons
who are not as fast as they once were ( God Love Them ) The Drivers have it all to do , but it is expected from the ''Time And Motion Experts '' who are one
lick away from ''Management'' , and now as ever the Thanx is soon forgotten .
To attempt to make Drivers Redundant ,some figures are coming in at 600 and 270 Buses lying idle as the Country is already Going South is not on .
Support these Drivers and their families and show the Management your Solidarity with the workers , and their genuine cause for concern in relation to
these Hatchet ''Cuts '' .
While the Gangsters upstairs in their cosy office's wait for response from any action from the ordinary Passengers who use these particular routes
the Union are looking for assistance from the public , Do what you can, show the Drivers some respect and Help them Fight for their jobs and dont
treat them as if they meant nothing , they mean a lot to the public , Ignore their plight at your peril .
Sorry, I neglected to put in the speakers:-
Eugene McDonagh (Dublin Bus Driver and NRBU personal capacity)
Tony Greene (SIPTU Shop Steward, Ballymun)
plus other lcal community activists
Chair: Cathy bent (People Before Profit)
