Irish leaders to meet with representatives of Magdalene laundry survivors

These women deserve to be compensated retrospectively for lost earnings with interest due to state enabled trauma. Fine apologies butter no parsnips. Weasel words won't pay their rent. Show them the colour of your sincerity, Taoiseach! Yet another shameful chapter in the crypto theocracy that was Ireland from 1922 - 1996 with successive political puppet administrations.

Will the "leaders" have arrest warrants for those errent nuns,priest,garda and politicians who are responsible and will they demand compensation from them on behalf of the victims?

Beware of Greeks (and Taoiseachs) bearing gifts. Kenny needs to step up to a full State apology and full, *transparent* restorative justice now, not meetings.

Some justice is in motion, at last for these much maligned women.

Seems Enda abhors the thought of "restorative measures" such as a public State apology and financial compensation at any level. This is the same government that initially concluded the Church need not pay for pedophilia by members of the clergy.

Justice will be served, and an interim payment of £10 000.00 Euros each for each claimant will not be amiss here. Justice at last is the rallying cry.
