  • Right-wing Labour, you got to love it. Why are workers still voting for such a party? The only left-wing parties in Ireland are the Socialist Party, Socialist Workers Party and the Irish Republican Socialist Party. The United Left Alliance should unite all genuine socialist parties against the forces of capitalism and neoliberalism. Social democracy had betrayed the workers and is now on the side of capitalism.

  • I was volunteering with the Youth Offending Service when I was called up to do a compulsory work placement of 25 hours per week for 13 weeks. The irony was that part of my role in the YOS was to organise reparation for young offenders, a maximum of 24 hours over 9 months.

  • @TheLarlar10 i got same letter. @ a time of no jobs. labour are finished.

  • I got one of these letters...

    "...If you fail to attend, your jobseeker's payment may be reduced or stopped completely. Your payment may also be reduced or stopped completely if you refuse to co-operate with FáS in it's effort to arrange employment, training or education opportunities for you.

    To continue to recieve a jobseeker's payment, you must be available for full-time work and making real efforts to find work.."

    I have been working for over 10 years until last October. The cheek of them!

  • Gilmore you SCUMBAG

  • labour party will not see power again for long time. Betrayed.

  • I'm sorry Eamonn but it is quite hard to take you and your party's false empathy for the people seriously when you lot are paid well over the odds compared to most other nations politicians and political leaders, and they then to be a whole lot better at their job then you and your cronies, including the "fascists", sorry Fine Gaelers .

  • What is treacherous and full of shit? Eamonn Gilmore.
