the government in waiting” that it must\r\nchange the country’s economic direction. The 60,000-member union’s motion for a general strike was presented to\r\nthe ICTU executive council in December and was referred on to the confederation’s\r\npowerful general purpose committee, which will meet on 11 January. In a letter\r\nto the ICTU, Unite Irish secretary Jimmy Kelly said the massive turn-out for\r\nthe ICTU protest march last November indicated that “a\r\nconsensus is emerging over an alternative economic, fiscal and banking strategy\r\nto that of the government’s and the prevailing austerity orthodoxy” (See also this \u003Cem>Collective\r\nBargaining Newsletter\u003C\u002Fem> Year 3 November 2010).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>English: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.irishexaminer.com\u002Fireland\u002Funion-leader-wants-general-strike-over-countrys-economic-direction-141093.html\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.irishexaminer.com\u002Fireland\u002Funion-leader-wants-general-strike\r\n...\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan class=\"Apple-style-span\">\u003Cspan class=\"Apple-style-span\">\u003Cem>\u003Cspan class=\"teaserText\">This\r\narticle was published in the Collective Bargaining Newsletter.
