‘At this point in time I can’t reassure our members on anything,’ says Antoinette Cunningham on day one of AGSI annual conference
“At this point in time I can’t reassure our members on anything. I haven’t spoken to the delegates – the mandate will come to the floor,” Ms Cunningham said. “By lunchtime tomorrow I will have a very clear view of what the delegates wish to do.”
Ms Cunningham has accused Garda management of intransigence over the issue and of failing to adhere to the industrial relations process established for Garda dispute resolution. The image, an artwork by the visual artist Mála Spíosraí, also known as Spicebag, is a reworked painting by renowned Cork artist Daniel MacDonald of an eviction taking place during the Famine.
Simon Harris called it an “extraordinarily regrettable” post which attempted to compare the gardaí “to perhaps some sort of colonial force of the past”.
