Irish Supreme Court rules that delivery drivers are employees and are entitled to rights.
Finally! Hoping this is a sign of better things to come. Employment rights for employees and also employers paying their fair share of PRSI.
It is on the list! Thanks!!!!
The Dublin Region Homeless Executive (DRHE) has paid around €2.35m a year (x4 years) for a building that was meant to be a homeless hotel but instead lies empty.
"Hotels and B&Bs are not suitable places for children to grow up. This is what is happening and there are no immediate plans for this to change. There is now an acceptance from Government that this is the way it has to be" - OCO, Welfare of Children in #DirectProvision www.oco.ie/news/ombudsm...
"We cannot allow, what everyone agreed was not good enough, to become acceptable simply bc it is better than tents, or better than nothing. We owe these children much more respect than that" - OCO Special Report on Safety and Welfare of Children in #DirectProvision

Sure didn't we get universities and culture out of the whole colonisation process. I can't even.
I got a "Happy Spain Day" today. In spite of expressing my reservations to the commemoration of this day... 12 October 1492... mentioning I'm from LatAm and the impact of colonisation. Eek!
OMG, I just got a call from Ipsos MRBI. I was so close to being one of those ppl surveyed!
Almost, because they asked me for my address to send a questionnaire and I'm not really happy giving that to someone calling from an unknown number. Ah well!
