Friday 10th of April at 5pm starting on O'Connell St, Sligo, marching to Sligo General hospital
To whom it may concern,
Due to the sheer level of frustration and anger at the lies and deceit of Mary Harney, the HSE and management of Sligo General hospital in recent times, particularly in relation to the removal of cancer serivces in Sligo to UCHG's 'Chamber of horrors', the people of the northwest have decided to march on SGH this Good friday.
Groups along with our own who are sick and tired of having their health facilities stripped away and angry at watching their families suffering as a result of the Irish Governments apathy and incompetance in managing our health services are taking to the streets again.
We are now demanding our rights as Irish citizens as laid out in the Irish constitution and are taking back our health services from the HSE, Mary Harney and her private interests.
The message is clear now to the management of Sligo General Hospital andto the HSE and Mary Harney:
We will not accept any more lies and deceit from those of you paid 6 figure salaries to run OUR hospitals, you now have a very clear choice to make:
Either represent us, the people of the Northwest or Mary Harney and her private interests because you can no longer pretend to do both.
We will accept nothing else other than full, honest co-operation with patients groups across the area.
We will also actively oppose any group, political or otherwise who try to oppose or block our efforts in any way.
Our written demands will be delivered today (Friday, April 10th) at 6pm to the hospital.
