Stop paying your subs?

I don't think this is a legal matter. As already said, stop paying subs and/or letter of resignation.

Constitutionally, Bunreacht na hEireann guarantees right of freedom of citizens in workplace to join/form unions - which has been affirmed in the courts as also guaranteeing a right of freedom to dissociate. Any troubles if you go ahead and resign - and I wouldn't expect there will be - point out the relevant legal cases.

(I must admit, personally, I think as a very general principle are more benefits to staying in a union, if it is the norm in a particular workplace/position/rank).

+1 I believe this case concerned an employee of CIE who held a position in which all of the people in that grade were members of one union. The employee resigned from the union and was sacked.

The High/Supreme Court held that the right to disassociate was a natural extension of the right to associate.

From the thread title, I imagined they had you tied up in the basement of Liberty Hall...

It's not a cult, phone them or send a letter/e mail quoting your member number etc expressing your wish to cancel membership.

Tell your payroll people to stop deducting the subs, simple.
