For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it.

SIPTU called a protest against the decision by Irish Ferries to attempt to force current employees to accept a "voluntary redundancy package" with the aim of replacing them with outsourced workers earning approximately €3.50 an hour (less than half the minimum Irish wage).

The Nov 3rd 2005 protest in Dublin attracted a turnout of between 8,000 to 10,000 people and included members of French unions.

According to SIPTU's Justice for Seafarers campaign this is

providing us with a glimpse of the future labour market if neo-liberal zealots succeed in pushing through their Services Directive in Europe
