Absolutely shocking to see how many children were let go or brought to an anti migrant protest in Dundalk today. You should be utterly ashamed of yourself bringing kids to shout abuse at their community.

There is a long established culture of making kids go to school sick with attendance rewards and no wages for parents not able to work when their child gets sick. European counterparts have ten days parental full paid sick leave for a sick child and don’t celebrate attendance

The amount of sickness in children at the moment is concerning. No pediatric amoxicillin (where’s the outcry) overburdened GPs and yet all we get is tusla writing letters to parents doing the right thing in keeping sick children home, schools doing attendance rewards
