ATGWU and SIPTU unity

Union unity=political unity?

The debate, discussion regarding left wing unity continues on this site, in the “left wing” political press, in the pages of Daily Ireland and in small meetings.

However this could be the most significant of all the moves so far.

The ATGWU and SIPTU have announced closer ties. The fact that the two largest unions on the island are getting closer together surely must inspire those who care about progressive politics on this island to try and work closer together.

“We may be more politically ambitious than Siptu at the moment. Relations between the two unions have been cool during the past five years and it will take a while for trust and confidence to be built,” said ATGWU regional secretary Mick O’Reilly yesterday.
“When we reach that stage, we intend to push the idea of a collective drive to elect a left-wing, progressive government, without Fianna Fáil. Labour, Sinn Féin and the independents would certainly form part of that vision.”
