Jump To Comment: 5 4 3 2 1Ladies ,i agree with what u are trying to say and i hope you are doing your utmost to get what you feel is rightfully deserved to the children in question ,
BUT you are ,as a group trying to ''cover '' everything and nothing ,instead of hitting the spot in regards to getting to the core of the problem , and the
problem is amongst the most henious i have ever came across , stick to local issues and see the local issues through to the very end ,
Be a voice for the scandalous immoral carry on which has been inflicated upon the children of Crumlin Childrens Hospital and see it through despite
the orders of Fianna Fail to the contrary and see the fruits of the loom at the end of the day , if only for the sake of sick children ,be a voice to be heard
and shout as loud as possible in order to achieve the very best and to hell with Cowen and Co. If you want to be elected just be honest with yourselves
and the rest should follow through , Dont let up for one minute, show us ,the elecorate what you are capable of achieving ,after all the kids in Crumlin

This afternoon members of the Save our Crumlin Children’s Hospital Campaign occupied the National Hospital Office of the HSE at Dr Stevens Hospital. They were joined by People Before Profit local election candidates Brid Smith and Cllr Joan Collins.
They were protesting at cutbacks at Our Ladys Hospital for Sick Children in Crumlin which include the closure of St Josephs ward from today.

I would also like to mention that Save Our Lady's children's Hospital Campaign group played a big role in orgainising yestedays protest at the hospital and will continue to fight to keep all services open with in the hospital.
The People Before Profit group picketed outside Our Lady's Children's Hospital Crumlin last night over the closure of wards due to cuts.
Up to two wards in the hospital are to close because of a funding shortfall of €9.6m.
The organisers of the picket claimed that the cuts would result in 7,000 fewer beds for inpatients.
Hospital management said the reduction in bed days would not be that high.
A hospital spokesperson said that St Joseph's ward is to close in 10 days time and another ward may also close later in the summer.
The wards are being closed to meet budget targets and whether or not the wards will re-open will depend on funding next year.
Seven new state-of-the-art operating theatres were opened at the hospital in June 2004 and it is understood two of those theatres will closed to surgical procedures this summer.
