Duncan Smith: “Talking out of both sides of its mouth”

We will not be crossing a picket line on Wednesday.

The revised Dáil schedule circulated today recognises that principled position but does not change the underlying issue that has led to this strike.

This is about integrity, standing up for what is right and rejecting the genocidal actions of the state of Israel.

Labour made it clear that we would not be passing a picket line outside the Dáil next Wednesday, and called on the government not to go through a Dáil sitting that would force their own backbenchers to break a picket.
