Comment & Analysis

Tá Fasach Áisféiseach ann anois le hUmhlaíocht an Rialtais i leith na bhFostóirí de bharr an Tobhaigh Pinsin

Ní bhonn é méadú íseal ar thobhach reatha do chinéal lútáil, rud a chiallaíonn go mbeadh tionchar ollmhór ag na fostóirí ar thodchaí an oideachais in Éirinn.

Leis na Míthapaí a bhí ag Páirtí an Lucht Oibre ó thaobh an tArdoideachais de, is Mór an Crá atá i gceist le rún an Pháirtí sa tSeanad

Tar éis cúig bliana mar chuid den rialtas, ní dhéanann rún éadóchasach an phairtí sa tSeanad mórán chun aspalóid a fháil dóibh ina bpeacaí.
