Stop the Bank Bail Out – This Government Has Got to Go

Tuesday 18th May 7.30

Called by the Right to Work Campaign

The government has begun to embark on an extra €3 billion in cuts. Elderly people have been told that their state pensions are likely to be reduced and many home helps have already been withdrawn .

17,500 jobs are to be cut from the public sector and workers are being pressurised into accepting a terrible deal that would destroy conditions built up over decades.

The dominant motive of all state policy has become: Bail Out the Bankers.

In one day, €8 billion was given in a bail out for Anglo-Irish Banks.

More recently, the Irish government has signed up for another €7 billion bail-out for an EU fund in the wake of the Greek crisis. This money will not go to the Greek people but will be used to support global bankers who have sought to profit from their misery.

All of these bail outs will continue and worsen unless people protest,

Instead of 2,000 people coming out in pouring rain, we need tens of thousands on the streets so that the government gets the message.

Next Tuesday the Right to Work Campaign has called for a demonstration to the Dail at 7.30.

This will be a peaceful demonstration that will give everyone an opportunity to make their opposition to current policies known.

A new cycle of protest has begun and its aim is to tell this government to go. We want change – and the only way to get that change is to come out and make YOUR voice heard.

Discussion: The crisis and the response of the Left in Germany 

11am, Teachers' Club. Saturday, May 29.

The current economic and financial crisis is Europe-wide, albeit particularly severe in Greece and Ireland. It is clear that Europe-wide solutions, including Europe-wide responses by the Left and the labour movement, are needed. Bärbel Lange and Sandra Beyer , both long-time members of Die Linke, will lead a discussion on the political situation in Germany and the response of Die Linke to the crisis.

Die Linke, which has about 76,000 members and rising, took 12% of the vote in the 2009 federal elections and in Europe has eight MEPs.

SOS (Save our Swimming Pool) is a group of concerned residents who oppose the closure of Swimming Pools, in Dublin.  Dublin City Council unveiled plans to close North side Swimming Pool on 1st January 2010 but following local and political pressure the planned closure was deferred until June 2010.  Following further protests, and political pressure, the closure of this pool has been deferred until November.

More people would use the pool if Public hours were increased and the City Council showed some interest in promoting the pool.

There is scope for adding additional services such as:

    * mother & Toddler Swimming
    * public swimming classes for adults and children,
    * birthday parties at the pool,
    * water aerobics, Easter & Summer Camps

Dublin is European Capital of Sport for 2010 and we celebrate by closing down swimming pools? Something is not right. We NEED your support to fight this unjust closure, if we wait until November, it will be too late.    Please attend the meeting on Wednesday June 9th In St Joseph's National School Macroom Rd, Coolock, Dublin 17 8pm
