Ryanair mission to vilify trade unions
We are all aware that this is not Mr O’Leary’s first media attack on trade unions. For him to do so when a licensed trade union is engaged in a lawful form of industrial action is very unhelpful, though not unexpected, given his distaste for trade unions.
Vilifying the trade union movement appears to be part of Ryanair’s mission. There are more than 550,000 members of trade unions affiliated to ICTU. In anyone’s book that is a large group of people to alienate.
