    Haven't really followed the case as you tend to become inured to state/semi-state union antics at this stage.

    Is it just for the right to listen to radio - as in recreational use - on the bus?

    If so, neither come out of the fiasco looking good: the management are being a bit strict and the union sounds more than a little Citizen Smithesque.

    This is probably more symptomatic of a cumulatively horrible relationship between the union and management than anything else.

    A great outcome for dublin bus drivers. Well done to everyone, the unions, radio nova, the public in general and individual drivers who put their heads above the parapet. It may not have been a massive issue in the grand scheme of things but for drivers like myself who love to listen to the radio, it means an awful lot.

    Dublin Bus drivers are refusing to use the Port Tunnel from next week and looking at non-collection of fares from next week because the drivers are not allowed use a radio in their cabs.

    What is the story with all of the industrial action over the pettiness of things?? Start training up bus and Luas drivers and sack the lot of the whingers. Inconveniencing thousands of people over nonsense.

    I would put a tiny bluetooth device in my ear and get on with the job.
