Current Issues Affecting the Health Services: Motion [Private Members]
Dail Éireann — 2022-12-13
============================================================

Mick Barry (PBP), Cork North-Central

-----as a blueprint for privatisation, which is what it is.
In the past month we have seen general strikes in Belgium and in Greece. What is needed now is a 24-hour general strike in Britain and Northern Ireland. That would involve co-ordination between workers in the struggling health service, the railways, the post office and elsewhere. It would also mean increased co-ordination of health service workers, all striking together on the one day. That is what is needed. That would be a real step forward and would be a step towards a 24-hour general strike throughout Britain and Northern Ireland. That is what is needed as a next step.
