"Don't forget...
Bailouts for bankers, while public service workers are hit with cuts!"
No mention of the meltdown in the private sector...whose taxes pay the wages of teachers.
Rather,used to pay their wages.
Nowadays teachers are paid by money largely borrowed abroad.
Economic oblivion beckons.
Not that the teachers notice such things.
Ireland is now officially worse than Iceland...the 6 months is up.
Almost 1-in5 (17%) of private sector will be out of work by years end.
See:

Who was it that said that the collective name for teachers should be "A Whinge of teachers."?
Agree entirely about videos. Young people get so much information from videos these days (don't I sound old??) We must reach out to them and their inherent disgust at the state of the world we live in.
So good to see the student protests.
Anyhow, we're trying to collect videos of community-based struggles at this site. We are entirely open to work with anyone and any groups who share our vision of a better Ireland.
Everyone together, we can change it!

Very good video. I think there need to be more video's of protests and speechs don, proper, proffesional ones. Maybe Indymedia could even have a way to have vids put on to there server (obviously selected ones only), so Indymedia can really become an alternative to theestablishment media.
Anyway, good video, for more check out the link below with other videos of joe.
