‘Executive needed urgently to start fixing health service’ – Gildernew

Sinn Féin MLA Colm Gildernew has said an Executive is required to deal with the challenges facing our health service.

Speaking after meeting health minister Robin Swann, the party’s health spokesperson said:

“Forming an Executive without delay to start fixing our health service and investing an extra £1 billion in health is a priority for Sinn Féin.

“I met with the health minister today on the urgent need to recruit more doctors and nurses, cut waiting lists and invest in cancer and mental health services.

“The people suffering from the DUP’s boycott of the Assembly and Executive are those patients stuck on a waiting list and those struggling to see their doctor.

“We are ready to get around the table with others today to do the job we are elected to do, that means making health a priority and working to fix the problems in our health service now.”

The Defence Forces; the Naval services & Army Ranger Wing deserve every bit of praise they have received since the operation off our coast yesterday.
The successful operation again demonstrates the benefits of and need to invest in naval capacity and wider Defence Force.

Government to hike petrol and diesel TWICE next month! In most counties driving a car is not a luxury, it is essential to get to work or drop kids to school

All Fianna Fáil & Fine Gael are doing is making peoples lives more difficult. It's time for change! – @MattCarthy

.@Padraig_Delargy and @Farrell_Mairead met and listened to the voices of students today at the Queens University Freshers' Fair.

Sinn Féin will continue to have the backs of students, and work to ensure that there is affordable accommodation for students right across Ireland.
