ICTU 'Better Fairer Way' campaign

The ICTU campaign for a 'Social Solidarity Pact' to include job creation, job protection, an economic stimulus package and opposition to pay and welfare cuts and pension protection, is now gathering momentum and will initially focus on a national protest/demonstration on Friday, 6th November at 2.30pm.

NATIONAL PROTEST RALLIES

There will be eight official regional demonstrations taking place in the following locations on the 6th November at 2.30pm:
Dublin Parnell Square
Waterford The Glen
Tullamore County Hall
Cork Connolly Hall
Limerick The Cathedral
Sligo The Blue Lagoon
Dundalk The Fairgreen
Galway The Cathedral

Lets get the largest turnout possible on the 6th! This time, not just private and public sector workers, but also the unemployed, and all those pn social welfare including pensioners, and all those in the community sector, which has also been savaged by cuts, all of us out that day. This time it won't just be a token 1-day stoppage and march to let off steam. The time for that has passed. It's just the start of a long campaign.
