Tens of thousands of people took to the streets today as part of a campaign organised by the Irish Congress of Trade Unions (Ictu) for a “fairer” alternative to the Government’s budgetary strategy.
Ictu is holding demonstrations and rallies at eight locations around the country – Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick, Waterford, Sligo, Tullamore and Dundalk – in support of its 10-point plan for a fairer way to national recovery. All of the demonstrations began at 2.30pm.
