The Revolutionary Republican Party Saoradh has removed disgusting racist material that was displayed inside Daisy Hill Hospital this morning [August 8th].
A party member was standing in the lift when he noticed a racist display on the wall. Disturblingly several members of medical staff of various nationalities were in the lift at the same time witnessed the vile material.
Our party member ripped the sticker from the wall and disposed of it much to the appreciation of the staff members.
Slamming the incident local Community Ambassador and Saoradh member Anthony Coyle said “There is no place for racist material anywhere in society let alone a hospital setting.
“The mentality of the idiot responsible is depressingly vile considering the international make up of medical staff within Daisy Hill.
“The perpetrator was likely going to be treated themselves by the very same staff members they sought to racially intimidate.”
Anthony continued “Daisy Hill has staff from all over the world who help treat people on a daily basis, including saving lives.
“This runs in stark contrast to the neanderthals who spout hatefilled racist and fascist rhetoric.
It’s clear that placing this vile message inside a hospital building was done for one reason and one reason only; to intimidate.
“Daisy Hill staff from all backgrounds have for many years provided a vital, and life saving, service for the many thousands of people in Newry and the surrounding area.”
“The Community Worker finished by saying Numerous times in the past few years Saoradh activists have stood on streets and picket lines for striking Daisy Hill workers of all nationalities and also to demand the return of other vital services that had been stripped away. We have also patrolled hospital grounds to protect and defend medical professionals from being attacked in the past.”
“We will also defend them from the scourge of racism.”
