Thousands protest over economy

Around 100,000 people gathered in Dublin today to protest over the impact of the economic recession on workers.
The General Secretary of the Irish Congress of Trade Unions, David Begg, told a rally at Merrion Square, that the Government must engage with Congress's plan for the economy.
Mr Begg said said those involved in what he called corruption had done huge damage to Ireland and described their actions as economic treason.
INTO General Secretary John Carr said the demonstration was a vote of no confidence Government's handling of the economic crisis. He said the march sent a clear message that social partnership must be re-convened to produce a programme for national recovery that will have the support of all citizens. Read More
