Once again no #marchwithmidwives in Belfast (or Derry, or anywhere in NI). Dublin only. #Midwives here are as on their knees, unsupported, under pressure and underpaid as our British and southern colleagues. How can we join in/ bring the marches to us?

#Solidarity with everyone joining the ‘march for #midwives’ today.
We stand with all #NHS workers.
While we fightback in the face of #CostOfLivingCrisis don’t let racism ever divide us.
