Successful secondary pickets bring public transport to a halt in Irela... Mar 31 17 Luas Strikes: Rage Against the Regime Media Feb 23 16 Vulture capitalist games lose 460 jobs at Clerys store in Dublin Jul 07 15 Solidarity to LUAS workers fighting to restore their share of the wealth - we need strong public transport unions![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Our solidarity today (11/02) to the LUAS workers striking for decent pay rates. The crisis was used by the government and capitalist class to drive down wages and ensure that a bigger share of profits went to shareholders. The LUAS fight is a fight for all of us as a victory should be a green light to all workers to demand pay rises, including the recovery of the money lost in the cuts imposed under the crisis. Across the world the share of income that goes to the richest 1% has soared while that going tooth rest of us has been slashed, we need to fight to reverse this. We also want to see well organised and powerful public transport workers because this isn’t simply a questions of wages but also of defence of the environment. As we wrote a few months back ““The provision of public transport on a not-for-profit basis is also vital to reducing carbon-emissions and to creating an ecologically sustainable society. In a recent Environmental Protection Agency report, 100% of respondents to a survey of local authorities felt that local public transport services were inadequate in their local areas; an estimated 380,000 people living in rural areas do not have access to the transport services they require. Climate change provides us with compelling reasons not just for the defence of public transport services but for their radical re-imagination, reconstruction and expansion.” |
