Some of the judgement mortgages secured against borrowers of Cootehill Credit Union when @HeatherH was manager. Did it repossess homes when borrowers couldn't repay loans?

Cootehill Credit Union secured judgement mortgages against borrowers in the High Court while @HeatherH was the manager between 1999 and 2011. Should she now be asked whether the credit union ever moved to repossess homes under her management? #Aras25

Solidarity with KLM ground staff who are taking strike action today for the third Wednesday in a row. KLM’s refusal to negotiate a fair collective agreement with their union @FNVSchiphol means workers suffer and passengers suffer.

When the outcome of a meeting is to hold another meeting, it all may seem like a waste of time.

I commissioned @ireland_thinks to ask people if they supported @forsa_union_ie's school secretaries and caretakers. The poll was conducted yesterday. The results are decisive across all demographics.

To School Secretaries & Caretakers: What a win. What a moment. This is all yours - your campaign, your achievement. Without your determination & relentless organisation, we could never have gotten to this point. Your pursuit of fairness & equal treatment has defined this strike

Education Minister @HMcEntee has confirmed government is willing to engage in relation to pensions for school secretaries and caretakers, and other issues, without any preconditions.

Listening to @HMcEntee on @RTENewsAtOne and her statement that everything including pension parity would be on the table in a talks process, it would be useful for some direct contact with @forsa_union_ie to see if there's a sufficient basis to suspend the strike pending talks.
