Tune in to @RTEOne TV @9.35pm GMT this evening for @RTE_PrimeTime 'Out of control': Riders open up about dangers of delivery work via @RTENews Thanks to @ConorMcMorrow for his time & effort. A wonderful journalist and person rte.ie/news/2024/0521/145029…
@IrishTimes Dublin food delivery riders on thefts and attacks: ‘They do it just for fun, it’s horrible’
irishtimes.com/ireland/2025/…
Now we need the same to happen to Uber and Deliveroo’s lobbyists. @MariaWalshEU I see you are seeking re-election in our constituency. What lobbying were you subjected to and what is your voting record on the EU #PlatformWorkDirective #PWD? @MacManusChris @lukeming @MarianHarkin
Finally!
After years of refusing to cooperate with @EPSocialAffairs, the consequences are here:
#Amazon's lobbyists will loose ⛔️their access badges to the #EuropeanParliament!💪
The pressure and efforts of @Left_EU and others have borne fruit!
#EPlenary #lobbyism
A week after 100s of delivery riders went on strike across Ireland for Valentine’s Day, European rider groups are meeting to demand that our national governments legislate to protect riders from exploitation after @EmmanuelMacron and @EPPGroup sabotaged EU #PlatformWorkDirective

‘An opportunity to stand up for the most exploited workers’ — Dublin food delivery riders plan Valentine’s Day strike on O’Connell Street | Independent.ie independent.ie/regionals/dub…
Riders are grateful for the public’s support, just so you know, @Deliveroo have offered riders a pitiful €10 each for those who work today instead of striking. Workers don’t want crumbs, they want dignified pay and working conditions, not constant reductions to standards. @SIPTU
Stand in solidarity with delivery riders worldwide this Valentine’s by boycotting @Deliveroo @JustEatIE and @UberEats who treat their workers with contempt. End this abusive relationship based on coercive control now before they enslave your children with their algorithms. @SIPTU
Thank you @ThomasPringleTD and everyone else who supports these hard working people being treated better. @sinnfeinireland @pb4p @Labou_TU @labour @SIPTU @unitetheunion @irishcongress @forsa_union_ie @SocDems @PresidentIRL @ITFglobalunion @europeangreens
Stand in solidarity with Dublin's delivery riders this Valentine's Day! 🚴♂️❤️
Avoid using Deliveroo, UberEats & Just Eat from 5-10pm tomorrow. Let's support fair wages and safety. Your solidarity can drive change!
#FairWagesForAll @ELSUIreland

We need to mobilise between now and Friday to make sure that @EmmanuelMacron knows that if he conspires with @Uber and @Deliveroo in a Coup d’Etat against Europe, then he will be exposed and held accountable. @LeoVaradkar we need to make sure this doesn’t happen. @etuc_ces @SIPTU
Thank you for your letter @simoncoveney Please ensure that Uber and Deliveroo do not sabotage European Democracy and ensure that all member states support this agreement on Weds. @ITFglobalunion @jamesfarrar @SIPTU @LeoVaradkar @irishcongress @etuc_ces
