Joan minister for DSP speaks at G4S sponsored gig was it wise

[C. Flower]

If Joan gives G4S a gig in Ireland helping our unemployed will they cost 230million and will the
Make the same mess as in the UK.

I hear that she has endorsed this company at the conference she spoke at and they sponsored .

Very interesting. What does "endorsed" mean ?

G4S is a massive organisation.

The Security business has a miriad of links with police forces, through retired staff and so on. There are 'security' issues, about taking on non-national security firms.

And I can't really see what they could possibly do for us in Ireland that would save us money.

I see the UK unemployment figures have gone up again ,and this was with the help of G4S

Will Joan take dive in and hire them for DSP

[blokesbloke]

God no, is there no country this awful farce of an organisation is not trying to ruin?

Keep G4S out of Ireland for dear sake - don't make the same mistakes the UK did!

Group Four Security? If so a dumb move.

Olympics security ?

Were surprised when their volunteer/unpaid work force didn't turn up to help make them a few million ?

I understand that Cameron has had to make a military takeover of the capital as otherwise it would be torn apart by Olympic Insecurity.

Here's a spooky drama of neo-liberal rapaciousness, authoritarian ruthlessness and strict Japanese discipline turned decadent and corrupt.

Group Four Security are believed to play a starring role in the gig.

Shocking **** as a trap door in the mundane world of the privileged drops one into a third world Asian Kafka horror story.

Psychic Wayne says it all ahead of us.

Even the Kid will remember Rossport as the halycon days of picnic policing.

Guys look at the UK court case verdict tonite how did he get rehired?

[C. Flower]

Maybe the Irish government want to out source
The task of getting jobs for our unemployed
To the private sector , G4S. Run a programme
In the Uk doing that work for 20,000 pounds
A placement.
Joan should not be speaking at their sponsored
Gig a clear conflict I would say

This whole seminar has the appearance of having been set up with some kind of private sector carve up in mind.

Protests being held against G4S activities in Israel according to the above blog and Indymedia. The article alleges that prisoners are transferred from a territory inside Palestine to Israel against the Geneva convention. Not a nice lot G4S...

[Troubleshooter]

Rubn by the association for Chartered Accountants what is their link to G4s

they are in Ireland http://www.g4s.ie/en-IE/
If this is the same company.

[Baron von Biffo]

In Kilkenny earlier I passed an Ulster Bank branch that had a liveried G4S man standing at the door. Well who else would the bungling bank hire but the bungling security firm.?

[Jolly Red Giant]

I see the government are looking for sponsors to pay for the cost of hosting the EU Presidency

I can see it now

'And the opening speech by Minister James Reilly at this informal meeting of EU Health Ministers has been brought to you with the help and support of Stubbs Gazette'

[Troubleshooter]

No G4S are a better sponsor for this government ,Joan has already endorsed them ,the pay 8€ a day for 12 hour shifts and these shifts are spilt into 6 hours each and you can be placed anywhere in the country
A bit like job bridge free labour for ISME and IBEC. The new labour way

[Troubleshooter]

Youth unemployment is at 40% and at 59% in Donegal and Limerick this is shocking.82,000 under 25 are unemployed ,This is shocking ,the only plan Joan has is to endorse G4S and their workfare programme ,which is causing nightmares in London .
What did she say when she was speaking at the G4S conference ,I can find her press release or speech anywhere ,she has 3 highly paid spin doctors who trip over themselves to supply us with
Joan's distilled wisdom .what has happened to this speech ?
