Former Aer Lingus manager angry at pensions situation

AS retired airport workers regroup to fight for better pension rights, the former manager of Aer Lingus in Shannon said yesterday he remained angry at the way his retired former colleagues at the airport have been treated.

Tom McInerney claimed that some workers were getting less than €100 a week in pension money, and were finding it hard to make ends meet.

“The Aer Rianta and Aer Lingus pensioners have been screwed,” said Mr McInerney.
