Gerard Mc Donnell was one of the workers involved in the 2009 MTL Port Strike to save jobs and preserve working conditions in Dublin Port. After 8 long months of struggle a deal was brokered and the strike was ended.

Gerard is 63 years old.

On 27th August 2009 there was a 'floating picket' involving a small number of boats in the harbour. Gerard was recently arrrested and charged in relation to this event. He is facing 3 serious charges under the maritime safety act with a fine of up to 250,000 hanging over his and his families head. He was arrested, handcuffed and thrown in a cell.

This is how the Gardai treat a worker who fought bravely for all our rights.

Dont let the State stamp on Gerard!
