Republican Youth will continue to oppose austerity driven health cuts

Sinn Féin Republican Youth joined protests today to voice our opposition to the proposed £70m cuts to the health service.

Republican Youth Spokesperson, Orla McBurney said:

 "The proposed cuts to the Health Service will disproportionately affect our most vulnerable and particularly our elderly.

 "These proposals are highly cynical and political motivated.

 "Today's rallies were held to highlight affects the proposals will have across the different regions.

 "Sinn Féin Republican Youth will continue to oppose Tory/DUP attempts to axe our frontline services and we will continue to campaign against austerity."
