Tesco should come on and then schill special offers like other callers to de Liveline..."Half price on de wines in aisle 9 so to speak".

Mike Guide 69

Do you seriously think Tesco would be stupid enough to put a spoksperson on and get stick from both workers and small traders??, cop on bud!!!

The unions should have done whatever was necessary so that they did not disrupt the other businesses.

The arguement here is that people have the right to pass the pickets and continue on with their normal shopping, but if there are elements of the picketers that are cauing hassle to members of the general public then the unions should intervene and remove those picketers....

Id love if someone went into Tesco and bought the picketers a load of sandwiches, tea/coffee and biscuits. Mixed feelings!

Damo this conversation should have ended 30 minutes ago its going no where!

VinLieger

Bahahahahaha ..... trade unions having ethics? Pull the other one

I don't believe ya luv.

LET ME FINNISH

baldbear

Tesco should do a massive promotion to get customers in.

neris

ethics - trade union

PeterTheNinth

Good speaker this woman.. When all the phones are put down, she might get a bit of a backlash from the scum picketing the place. so she's brave to voice her opinions.

Mike Guide 69

Well said caller.....

Right2Write

Because Missus, Mandate don't give a shoyte about your small business. Nothing to do with them.

VinLieger

Nice final burn there about unions refusing to talk about the WRC recomendations

Shouldn't have started

Mike Guide 69

Damo, ask Tesco why they have gone back on some of the contractual hours that was orginally agreed through WRC???

Dan Jaman

Tesco are, and always have been, a shower of cnuts. I'd not pyss on their store if it was on fire.

Red Kev

These two women have very similar voices
Sounds like one crazy lady having an argument with herself.

I take it Dan that your not taken in by the slogan "Every Little Helps"!!

Dan Jaman

Are there no terribly important ploughing or fencing matters in the country, Damo?

Truck load of Waffle coming

Ally Dick

Missus, striking is about causing mayhem...not preserving the status quo

Odyssey 2005

Pass the book why don't ya.
Trotting the party line ad nauseum

Across the country..... in what 7 stores total?

"I didn't interrupt you"

Well you actually did you f**ker, you're interrupting my business... Jesus, I would be boiling mad if I was her as well. Another self righteous union w*nker.

Or "Every Lidl helps".

Dan Jaman

Ah, feck off.
Just take a step back and stop interfering with the right of the public to come and go freely. Nobody has the right to tell (or even ask) anyone to wind down their window and demand to know their business. Apart from the Gardai, and you ain't one of them.

Odyssey 2005

I'd nearly go to tesco to shop for the crack.

Dia1988

The important question here is, How much does Damien OReilly earn from RTE ?

Mike Guide 69

Billy Bragg on line 3 with a song for the wurkers!!!!

Are they doing a weekly special on crack?

Mike Guide 69

Well said, Tesco decided to rail road it through without taking part in the 8 week consulation process

Roger_007

How come all union spokespeople sound exactly the same........even their accents?

PeterTheNinth

This is the face of modern unions.

Dia1988

Can Tesco just hire temporary employees?

No..by stopping schoolgirls and asking them where they're going. They'd only do that once to my kids..

TheHomeService

I have never, to my knowledge, crossed a picket line in my life. However, I would be seriously pissed off if a picketer stopped me and asked me where I was going.

this is like moving next to an airport, then ringing up about the noise of planes taking off and landing. that's how airports make money, and pubs tend to make more money when they are busy !!

That's right. I could never understand why they built Windsor castle under the flight path into Heathrow.

Duh!

What did he expect living over a pub in a busy city street in Dublin?

Stupid caller, move on Damo!

Id expect the pub to be well sound-proofed...would it make any difference if the neighbour was someone who played loud music from their apartment into the early hours?
Id suggest that he rent a large set of speakers,point them directly at the floor every night and blast out Barbie Girl at naseum and indeed a reprieve at lunchtimes if he does food.Band and customers would soon get pissed off and owner might begin to see that his business is not the centre of the universe.

I agree but there are a bunch of self important and mainly incompetent gob****es managing this protest who will conspire to drain away a geat deal of the support which I think the public has for the strikers.
