The Luas drivers have received further criticism from Ryanair chief Michael O’Leary who has once again labelled the Luas drivers as “lunatics” and “headbangers.”
The low cost airline supremo told Newstalk’s Down To Business, that the current strike is a joke and that drivers on strike have decided to “vote away their jobs” and that they should be replaced by “schoolkids”.
Mr O’Leary further explained: “It takes about five minutes to train a Luas driver. There’s a button, you go left. A button, you go right, and that’s all it takes to drive a Luas train.”
“You look at the mess of the Luas strikes, where you have a couple of headbangers hanging out for 50% pay increase”.
