Sheehan expresses solidarity with striking education staff

Sinn Féin MLA Pat Sheehan has expressed his support and solidarity for striking educational support staff. 

The party’s education spokesperson said:

“I want to express support and solidarity with the education workers who are striking for fair pay.

“These workers are vital to running our schools with school transport, school meals and other support services and they deserve fair pay and conditions.

“One party’s refusal to form an Executive has left workers at the mercy of a Tory government who show no care or regard for public sector workers and services.

“Public patience has run out. In the absence of an Executive, the British government must immediately bring forward a fair pay deal for public sector workers here.”
