Am I alone in thinking that ICTU's proposed one day work stoppage on March 30th is stark raving mad?
In all probability, the majority of those we see on the streets will be public servants. Everyone I know working in the private sector -those that haven't (yet) lost their jobs - are battening down the hatches. The last thing people working in industries that are in jeopardy need is to exacerbate the situation.
I bitterly disagree with the way the Government has hit mainly soft targets in its quest for 'sharing the pain'. I would like to see those who benefitted most from the Celtic Tiger sharing a bit more equitably - in particular I'd like to see the top bankers in sackcloth and ashes. ..........But Work Stoppage....Pure madness. We're in a bit of a stew...and they want to turn up the heat????
btw, Mrs MM is a public servant
