OTD in 1923 a crowd of thousands welcome Jim Larkin back to Dublin after a nine-year absence in the United States.

The photo that inspired the monument on O'Connell Street was taken by Joe Cashman.

It captures Larkin’s towering stature and powerful oratorical style.

At our SIPTU Community Sector AGM activists from across the country demanded that their essential work be rewarded. We are publicly funded. We provided vital public services. We deserve public rewards.

Trade unions and the best sporting organisations share the same values of fair play, working as a team and respecting all people for their abilities no matter what their background. siptu.ie/siptu-congratu…
