We’re being told the protests are “too disruptive.”
But what’s really disruptive is the crisis people are living through every day.
Families choosing between heating and eating.
A 14-month wait for an MRI.
Children waiting years for a CAMHS assessment.
The GP list that’s been closed for two years.
€2,200 rent for a one-bed apartment
Single mothers living with their children in hotel rooms for years.
Over 4,000 children homeless.
Schools with no places.
That’s disruption. That’s the reality for ordinary people. That's the system that Fianna Fail and Fine Gael preside over.
And yet we’re told Ireland is one of the richest countries in Europe, with a €23 billion budget surplus.
So where is it?
The financial package for industry does nothing for workers, families, or small farmers. It doesn’t touch the real cost of living.
This shows we need more pressure, not less. Real change has never comes without disruption.
Workers need to enter the stage. We need the Unions to act.
Because this crisis won’t fix itself - and the government won’t act unless it’s forced to.
