In the 12 months leading up to September 2023, there were 13,600 equal pay claims made in the UK.

In 2024, workers at five of the UK's largest supermarkets, Asda, Tesco, Morrisons, Sainsbury's and the Co-op, were pursuing equal pay cases.

The laws were passed in May 1970 but did not come into effect until December 1975, giving employers time to prepare. One of the triggers for the laws was the 1968 Ford machinists strike.

I live in Clare, I'm not an FF voter personally. However, I would have a lot of respect for Timmy Dooley. He took political risks supporting the Repeal Campaign when many here didn't, he has consistently opposed the Far Right and racism. Loughrey is a less than useful idiot.
