It would be great That, When Whole Workplaces Come Out on the Day Of Action on November 6th, if they March En Masse from their Workplace to the Protest venues. This has happened before on the PAYE Tax Marches for example. Of course, I'm not suggesting that those working far out in the suburbs such as Coolock or Tallaght, or those working outside the Provincial Centres March into town. They should charter buses and car pool, as it Seems Very Likely that Public Transport Will Stop At Least for Several Hours on November 6th. read full story / add a comment

In the Summer of 2008 it was confirmed that Ireland's economy was in recession. At the same time thousands of people received the results of their degrees. This article looks at how the recession has affected the graduates of 2008, a group whose struggles have been under-reported in the media and some of those graduates relate their experiences, within the last year, of jobseeking, social welfare and further education. read full story / add a comment

The news that 26-County Finance Minister Brian Lenihan has ordered the Financial Regulator to carry out a review of the Credit Union sector should be a cause for concern.
