Beskrivelse

A ferry carrying 133 people capsized off Guyana’s coast, sending 66 missing and 67 rescued—including 15 children—after a massive wave flipped the 1939 vessel en route to Port Kaituma. Survivor Wayne Kitson, 18, described the chaos while asleep, fearing for his family as he drifted six hours before rescue. Despite life-saving gear onboard, search efforts now involve private boats amid ongoing concerns over the oil-rich, disputed Essequibo region.

Strike Paused as Talks Begin | Limerick News

Workers at Ireland’s largest dementia care facility, St. Joseph’s Centre, are on the brink of strike action over pay disputes — but a last-minute intervention by the Workplace Relations Commission has paused the walkout. The union, SIPTU, had planned a 72-hour strike starting July 27th to demand wages that reflect the vital, hands-on care they provide. Management warned of disruption to vulnerable residents, while workers insisted their labor deserves fair compensation. With talks now underway under WRC mediation, the strike is on hold — but not forgotten. If no progress is made, workers are ready to resume action on July 29th.

Ireland’s First Financial Ambassadors | Limerick News

Ireland just launched a bold new initiative: its first-ever Financial Literacy Ambassadors, Gráinne Griffin and Denis Carrigan, are on a mission to empower every citizen—youth and seniors alike—to master money management. Gráinne, leading Ireland’s new financial education unit, and Denis, a seasoned economics educator, will champion the National Financial Literacy Strategy, helping people confidently navigate investing, saving, and financial decisions as a new investment account rolls out next year. They’ll also represent Ireland across Europe in the EU’s financial literacy network, traveling the continent to spread financial wisdom—no salary, but full support for travel and expenses. This is a major step toward a smarter, more financially secure nation. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
