  • Emergency Call for Universal Basic Income
    We call on the Government of Ireland to pay a permanent, unconditional Universal Basic Income (UBI) of at least €203 per week to all legal residents between 18 and state pension age, starting as quickly as possible. This will replace jobseekers' benefits – currently €203 per week – and the UBI amount in other benefits, such as the Covid-19 Pandemic Unemployment Payment and enhanced Illness Benefit. This is one essential part of the measures urgently needed to help our society and economy cope with and eventually recover from the crisis.

  • Free Car-Parking for Healthcare Workers
    During the Covid 19 Pandemic - Dublin City Council thankfully agreed to allow Healthcare workers to park on the public streets for free once a photocopy of their Hospital ID was placed in the windscreen window. This provided a little bit of relief and solace to those of us who worked tirelessly to support our country. As of the 1st August 2020, we will no longer be granted that relief. Prior to this car parking was a constant nightmare, with over €120/month being spent on car parking fees and often hours wasted driving in circles to find a space.

  • Education for All
    We are urging both ministers Simon Harris and Dianne Dodds to begin the process of reforming the funding of Higher Education across the island of Ireland. We need a publicly funded system that is accessible and adequately funded. We do not need the highest fees in the EU at 3,000 euros in the republic or a loan scheme system that levels students with debt at the start of their working life as is place in the North.

  • Protect the homeless in Ireland and in the Calais Jungle
    Act on behalf of the Irish people and provide support immediately, and at the same time, for homeless families in Ireland as well as homeless families of refugees in the "Jungle Camp" at Calais. Both situations are inhuman and debasing. It is a disgrace to ignore them. The country has enough resources available so please desist from using "an Béal Bocht". Humanity should know no barriers at a time like this.

  • "Tell Dublin City Council to stop the land giveaway. Build homes for all instead!"
    We want Dublin City Council to stop the giveaway of public land to private developers under the Housing Land Initiative. Public land should be used to tackle the housing crisis - not given over to developers to build private housing which is not affordable to the majority.
