Comrades,

This Saturday, 29th November, Fórsa members will be marching shoulder-to-shoulder with thousands of people across Ireland as we join the IPSC National Demonstration for Palestine. 

All members who wish to take part in the IPSC demonstration are encouraged to join the Fórsa delegation, which will be marching as part of the trade union bloc. You can join us at Fórsa’s HQ in Nerney’s Court from 12.15pm on, before we collect the flags and head down to join the main trade union bloc outside Mandate’s offices at 12.30PM.   

This Saturday carries special significance as it marks the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. 

The main march begins at 1pm from the Garden of Remembrance and will proceed to the Dáil. 

All members are encouraged to join us whether at Nerney’s Court, outside Mandate, or along the route as we raise our collective voice in solidarity with Palestine. 

Tomorrow, many Fórsa branches and activists will be participating in the ICTU-organised Day of Action for Palestine, by holding voluntary lunchtime and break-time solidarity events across the country. 

We would like to say a huge thank you to all of you organising workplace walkouts, lunchtime briefings, solidarity photos, moments of reflection, lunch-and-learn sessions, and more. Your actions show the power of workers coming together with purpose and compassion. 

If you would like to share photos or videos from your solidarity actions, please send them in to campaigns@forsa.ie.

 
In solidarity,  

Kevin, Mehak and Aisling.  

The Fórsa Campaigns Team.
