Ireland: Joe Higgins TD lambasts government austerity policy

Government’s policies will plunge society into Greek style crisis

Below we publish an exchange in the Irish Parliament between the Socialist Party’s Joe Higgins TD (Member of Irish Parliament) and the Irish Tánaiste (deputy prime minister) Eamon Gilmore TD. Joe attacks the role of the Labour Party in the cuts-making coalition government and extends solidarity to the suffering Greek working class.
