Agree with this.
But if the country is locked down on level 5.
Then everything should be closed.

Including supermarkets and convenience stores?

The unions are an absolute plague on this country, particularly on the public sector. No department will ever be run properly until the union stronghold is broken.

Nope, they are essential.

No but yer one in Mayo is getting serious mileage out of it.

I noticed in the last Tommy Tiernan and Hector podcast that she is talking more than they 2 boys on it.

The childcare place will probably go to the wall if its not open. They'll all be out of a job then.

Indeed. As should be Special Needs Schools and 6th Year, in my view.

Who's been seancing Maggie Thatcher, then?

Roger_007 · 20-01-2021 02:22PM

Have any special arrangements been made for special-needs broadcasters?

BPKS · 20-01-2021 02:23PM

If only the Dept of Education and the unions knew 10 months ago that this might be an issue and figure something out.

This one Sinead is not prepared to say that she will go back, even if vaccinated and the numbers drop dramatically?

She would be sacked for frustration of contract, if in the private sector.

We do care only if we get our own way

Atrocious attitude

Mervyn Skidmore · 20-01-2021 02:24PM

Sounds like they are full of problems and not even a hint of a solution.

People have to eat.
6th years dont have to go into school.

Only for the unions my working hours would have continued in this fashion:

Monday & Wednesday 9.30-13.00 + 17.30-21.00
Tuesday, Thursday & Friday/Saturday: 9.30-13.00+14.00-18.00.

And I might be working out in Coolock trying to kill those useless afternoon hours.

Could the local fibregade station give them breathing apparatus with enough supply of oxygen for the day.

Have had this before! In fact my last memory of it was the morning after drinking the poisoned Austrian wine during the 80s scandal, ordered this to line my stomach and then throwing the whole lot up shortly after.
