The largest strike for more than 10 years will take place this week in Northern Ireland
on Wednesday, April 26, as they fight for better pay and working conditions amidst the cost of living crisis.
IPSA General Secretary Carmel Gates said: The action has been forced in large measure by the government’s decision to implement sanctions in Northern Ireland. The sanctions imposed by the Secretary of State and Westminster are designed to force Northern Ireland political parties to return to Stormont. In effect, these sanctions only hurt ordinary people and will cause permanent damage to public services.
