Well, that was nice, what now?

Just back in from the march in Dublin City Centre.

Just back in from the march in Dublin City Centre. Initial reports suggest a crowd of several thousand. At the head of Molesworth St, where the march came to a halt before a large speaking platform, the march is believed to have trailed back as far as Trinity College and they were PACKED in on top of each other. Huge amount of Union banners and the usual sloganisig speeches from Des and the Boyz along with a couple of 'The Labour Party, aren't they great altogether' comments while Quinn, clad in a desperately fashionable black cord velvet suit, looked on approvingly. Some of the speeches were alright and full marks to the IGB rep and the Secretary of the Trades Council, if only for calling Mary Harney a cunt on several occasions.

TDs from Labour, Sinn Féin and the Socialist Party were spotted in attendance though the only party banner visible from the top of the march was the Labour party one. So, massive turnout, huge amount of radicalism from ordinary workers, but now the Union bureaucracy can say they've done something, what now?
