It was a immense pleasure co-organizing the Irish Game dev holiday party! Thank you all for attending, people from big&small studios, contractors and freelance. Despite some of the many bad news we had this year, the Irish game dev community is diverse and alive! and it's thanks to their workers!

What a great night to catch up with fellow game developers. We probably had close to 200 game developers meet up Friday night for drinks, food, a bit of social games and prizes, and good craic.

It's great to see MPs support our campaign! @rockstargames.com, it's time to reinstate your workers!
Video game giant Rockstar has sacked more than 30 workers across the UK, including my constituents working at their Edinburgh office. I urged Ministers to support workers who have lost their jobs, and stop this from happening again.

We stand in solidarity with IWGB game workers in London who have been targeted by blatant union busting by Rockstar Games. This attack on workers organising in their workplace can not stand.
In one of the most shameless instances of union-busting Rockstar Games fired 30+ IWGB union members for NO OTHER REASON than to terrorize & silence them.

Join the IWGB protest!
Demand reinstatement!
