The Garda Commissioner, whose paycheck is safeguarded from any undue influence, has now taken matters into her own hands and issued an executive order that dictates that all hands should be on deck on strike day, or else.
The order comes ahead of the planned Garda strike on Friday. All hell is expected to break loose across the country from early morning, as Gardai down mace sprays and walk out of their job.
Members of the Garda Representative Association (GRA) soundly rejected a pay deal offered last night, a move which puts the organization on a direct collision course with law and order.
The Garda Commissioner implied that disciplinary action may be taken against those on the picket lines at a later stage if they don’t comply.
